England win by five wickets; series level at 1-1

A spectacular maiden one-day international century from stand-in captain Liam Livingstone helped England defeat West Indies by five wickets and take the three-match series to a decider.

Livingstone's 124 from 85 balls helped the visitors win with 15 balls remaining as they had to chase a challenging 329 to win in Antigua. Before the skipper and Sam Curran's tenacious fifth-wicket stand left England needing 100 runs from the final 10 overs, Phil Salt and Jacob Bethell had both reached half-centuries.

After reaching his fifty in sixty balls, Livingstone quickly surged to reach three digits in just seventeen balls. Shai Hope, the captain of the Windies, had earlier helped the hosts recover from losing both openers early by scoring 117 off 127 balls. Keacy Carty (71) and Sherfane Rutherford (54), in turn, provided strong support for Hope. It indicates that the third and final ODI in Barbados on Wednesday will determine the series.
