That's it from our coverage of the second ODI between West Indies and England from Antigua. Ninaad Dixit here signing off on behalf of my co-commentator AkshayaKrishna Polya and scorer Yogesh Kumar. Stay tuned for more cricketing action from around the world.
Jos Buttler (England Captain): "I've been searching a bit for some form, it's something that I've been searching for a little bit so to be not out and get the team over the line is pleasing.
Yeah, really pleasing. I've been playing for a while now so to it's always nice to get to those milestones and be consistent over a long period of time. I have had moments where it has been frustrating. I was getting fed up with it so it was time to put in a performance and get back to the player that I know I am.
Sam Curran is a brilliant character. He had a tough day the other day but he's a fantastic character. He's always up for the challenge and never shies away from it. He led from the front for us today which is just what we needed.
Yeah, very enthusiastic for the final game. It's great to be in those situations, those must-win games. We can't wait to be in Barbados for the decider."

Shai Hope (West Indies Captain): "We didn't start as well as we should have started with the bat. We put ourselves under a bit of pressure. There are some positives as well, Sherfane played a really good innings but we also didn't finish as good as we could have. We weren't smart enough and that's what caused our downfall in batting.
Yeah Sherfane is doing it for quite sometime now. Especially in the regional stuff. You can see he has matured along as a batter. We all know he can strike the ball but seeing him play the way he is playing is very pleasing. I hope he continues that.
We know he can operate the ball as well. It's not something we expect him to do in this team but we know he can be someone who can turn up and pick up some wickets and give us some in-roads.
It was challenging for spinners. Anytime you bowl here under lights, some dew as well so it becomes difficult for spinners to grip the ball but they still tried their best and I saw the belief in both the spinners they have and I must commend the efforts.
We have to win the game to win the series and we need to turn up with more planning, preparation and we will be ready for the next game."

Sam Curran (Player of the Match): "Really pleased. Obviously tough day the other day but you got to move forward and keep trying to bounce back and that's a great thing about this series, you can bounce back. We lost that game and bounced back strong today so really pleased.
It is a quite big breeze and I didn't find the ball swing much so just tried to change the angle and luckily a few edges.
We did so many things right in that first game. The message from the coach and the captain was that we just have to come back today and try and put things right."
