Kieron Pollard, West Indies skipper: "Obviously just a matter that we haven't scored enough runs. It's disappointing today. I thought the first six overs, the end result of 43 without loss we would have taken that. We wanted to keep that momentum going but we lost a couple of wickets."

A resistance from Steve Smith (35) and Marcus Stoinis (24*) led Australia to a five-wicket win over Proteas after Temba Bavuma and Co managed just 118/9 while batting first on Saturday. Australia chased the total with two balls and five wickets to spare.

Meanwhile, the Windies, later on the same day endured a forgettable outing after being dismissed for just 55 inside 15 overs, after being asked to bat by England in their opener.

In reply, Windies showcased a glimpse of a fightback with Akeal Hosein claiming two wickets to restrict England to 39/4 at one stage, but a very low target to be chased meant that Jos Buttler (24*) and skipper Eoin Morgan (7*) sealed the match with six wickets and 11.4 overs to spare.

For the Windies, Chris Gayle’s 13 was their top individual score with the rest of their batters collapsing to single digit figures.

Rebuilding the innings in case of losing a wicket or two will be an area where Kieron Pollard and Co will look to improve on. None of the West Indian batters showed signs of playing a composed innings against England in a bid to potentially rebuild the innings.
