Reacting instantly, he sprinted forward, dived, and completed a sharp one-handed catch as he slid across the pitch. It was a standout display of reflexes and commitment from the West Indies were in early trouble, losing two wickets within the first 10 overs.

Root century takes England to ODI series win over West Indies
Joe Root hit his highest one-day international score, making 166 not out as England beat the West Indies by three wickets in Cardiff on Sunday. Victory gave the hosts an unassailable 2-0 lead ahead of Tuesday's finale at the Oval, with Harry Brook enjoying a series win in his first campaign as England's full-time white-ball captain. England, chasing 309 to win, collapsed to 2-2 as openers Jamie Smith and Ben Duckett were both out for a duck. But star batsman Root's 18th century in 168 ODI innings saw England win with seven balls to spare ahead of Tuesday's finale at the Oval, despite West Indies fast bowler Alzarri Joseph's fine return of 4-31 from his maximum 10 overs. Root received good support from Brook (47) in a stand of 85. Then Will Jacks (49) helped Root add 143 in 20 overs during a sixth-wicket partnership that took the hosts to the brink of victory. The West Indies were much-improved with both bat and ball following their humiliating 238-run loss at Edgbaston on Thursday. Despite the in-form Keacy Carty's 103, they were ultimately made to pay for not compiling a truly huge total when well-placed on 205-2 at Sophia Gardens. Brief scores Player-of-the-match: Joe Root (ENG) Series: England lead three-match series 2-0.

England beat West Indies to clinch ODI series with Root masterclass
CARDIFF :England batter Joe Root scored his 18th One-Day International century and surpassed 7,000 runs in the format when the hosts beat West Indies by three wickets on Sunday to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match ODI series. Root's masterly 166 off 139 balls helped England, who won the first ODI by 238 runs at Edgbaston, chase down a target of 309 at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff. After winning the toss and electing to bowl, England made an early breakthrough to make it 6-1 by claiming the wicket of 18-year-old opener Jewel Andrew (0), before Brandon King and Keacy Carty put on a run-a-ball 141-run stand to calm West Indies' nerves. Spinner Adil Rashid broke the partnership when King (59) holed out to long-off, and all-rounder Will Jacks struck to end Carty's fluent knock of 103 off 105 balls, reducing West Indies to 205-3. Carty was dropped twice — on one and 41 — and also survived a few run-out chances, before going on to punish the England bowlers by notching his fourth ODI century. But Rashid continued to shine with the ball, trapping Shimron Hetmyer (4) lbw and finishing with figures of 4-63 to become England's highest wicket-taking spinner across formats. West Indies lost wickets at regular intervals, but captain and wicketkeeper-batter Shai Hope (78) and Justin Greaves (22) came to their rescue, helping the visitors to a total of 308 all out in 47.4 overs. England opened their run chase in disastrous fashion, reduced to 2-2 after both openers, Jamie Smith and Ben Duckett, were dismissed for ducks. Dropped on 30 by Hope off the bowling of Jayden Seales, England skipper Harry Brook went on to make 47 as he tried to stabilise their innings before falling to Alzarri Joseph, who ended with figures of 4-31. With former captain Jos Buttler out for a duck and Jacob Bethell trapped lbw, Root anchored the innings, putting together a 143-run partnership with Jacks (49). But after Brydon Carse (2) was dismissed, Rashid (10) provided Root help on the other end as England chased down the target with seven balls to spare. Root, 34, also surpassed Eoin Morgan to become England's leading ODI run-scorer. The final ODI will be played at The Oval in London on Tuesday.
