As any good Test match should, it all comes down to the final day as England look to bowl the West Indies out for a famous series win at Old Trafford today. Victory for the hosts would see them lift the Wisden Trophy for the last time before it’s retired - but Jason Holder’s talented Windies side won’t go down without a fight. The tourists need a 2nd innings haul of 389 to win the 3rd Test - though a draw would also see them retain the trophy as the current holders. Cricket doesn’t get much more dramatic than this, so follow our guide below as we explain how to watch an England vs West Indies live stream and catch all of the day 5 action online right now.
The 3nd Test of this summer’s England vs West Indies series takes place at Old Trafford in Manchester from July 24-28. Play starts at 11am BST every day on Sky Sports and anyone without Sky can watch all the action with aNow TV Sky Sports Pass.
The series stands at 1-1 with the 3rd Test hanging in the balance, and while England are heavily favoured by the bookies to see things through in Manchester this Tuesday, the West Indies can’t be discounted - especially if more unsavoury weather rears its head on day 5.
Rain wiped out the entire fourth day of play yesterday, so Joe Root’s England XI will be after quick wickets when action resumes later today, lest Mother Nature stick an inconvenient oar in again.
England’s advantageous position has been a real team effort this Test, with Rory Burns, Ollie Pope, Jos Buttler, Stuart Broad and captain Joe Root all stepping up to deliver runs in the absence of Ben Stokes' usual batting heroics. Broad has been even more deadly with the ball, though, with the paceman taking 8 wickets over the first four days of the 3rd Test.
Yet we mustn’t forget this is the same Windies team who won the 1st Test in Southampton - captain Jason Holder and paceman Shannon Gabriel tearing through the England batting order for a combined 16 wickets - including a double of Stokes for Holder.
