Holder-led bowling attack dominates in Barbados masterclass

The hosts started the rot with the wicket of Jason Roy in the first over of play at Kensington Oval, and didn't look back in a conquering nine-wicket win.

Pollard's men were unrelenting with the ball and in the field, restricting the tourists to 26/4 in the Powerplay. Holder claimed Tom Banton and Moeen Ali in successive deliveries, as Sheldon Cottrell (2/30 off four overs) made his mark at the other end.

Cottrell was the man to remove Roy, and the left-armer picked up James Vince (14 from 12 balls), who threatened to launch English escape plans.

The fourth wicket brought Sam Billings to the middle, just a week removed from his Test debut in Hobart against Australia. The wicket-keeper batter was unable to hang around with captain Eoin Morgan, missing an Akeal Hosein delivery on the charge and stumped for just two.

On top of the West Indies' execution of plans, England's batting capitulation was as much down to unforced errors at crucial moments, with a poor call running between wickets the reason for Liam Dawson's downfall. Misjudging a quick single, Dawson fell to his knees in an attempt to skip back into his ground, with captain Pollard finishing a simple under-armed throw to Nicholas Pooran for the run out.

Morgan would pick out Pollard at cover an over later, and at 49/7, were staring down the barrel of their lowest ever total of 80.

England finally found a partnership through Chris Jordan (28) and Adil Rashid's (22) lower-order exploits, and the pair managed to move the score towards three figures.

Jordan fell to the spin of Fabian Allen in the late stages looking to up the run-rate further towards six an over, and Rashid managed to stick around until the final over, ticking over the century total.

Holder quelled any lusty late blows, removing Saqib Mahmood (5) and Rashid in successive deliveries to finish with his scarcely believable figures.

Any doubts of a nervy West Indies chase were put to bed, as the opening pair of Brandon King and Shai Hope moved through the Powerplay unscathed, and registered a half-century partnership.

Hope fell to a clever piece of Rashid bowling soon after, but it proved merely a consolation wicket as the hosts ran off into the sunset.

King was joined by Pooran, as the pair eased home with 17 balls to spare.
