Roach to Chandimal, out Caught by John Campbell!! West Indies inch closer! A short of length delivery outside off, shapes away a touch perhaps with extra bounce, Chandimal tries to force it through the off-side but only manages to get a thick outside edge behind. Campbell fumbles on his first attempt while trying to revere-cup it and it pops out. He then takes it easily on the second attempt.

Roach to Milan Rathnayake, out Lbw!! Rathnayake has been trapped in front but he decides to review after a chat with his partner. Looks adjacent to the naked eye. Was a good length delivery that nipped in from middle and off, Rathnayake was caught in the crease as he tried to keep it out but got beaten on the inside edge to get pinged on the pads. UltraEdge shows a flat line. Over to ball-tracking and it's umpire's call on hitting - it would have clipped the leg-stump. 299 Test wicket for Roach and is cock-a-hoop.

I haven’t seen this quality of fast bowling from the West Indies in decades.
This attack has the ability to consistently take 20 wicket; the foundation of winning Test matches.
Well done, lads, and full credit to the coaching staff.
I would love to see Jason Holder back in the side. His experience, control, and all-round ability would truly complete this fast-bowling quartet.

West Indies said before the game they would bowl straighter and fuller???

Roach to Asitha Fernando, out Bowled!! There's the 300th Test wicket for Roach! What a moment for the veteran! He becomes the fifth West Indies bowler to pick up 300 Test wickets. Chase runs up to him and gives him a bear hug. The Windies bowling coach, Ravi Rampaul, gives him a standing ovation. All his teammates are ecstatic
