The West Indies: Shoaib Bashir spearheaded England to a remarkable 241-runs victory over the West Indies in the second Test at Trent Bridge, sealing the win within four days.

Bashir's sensational five-wicket haul, his first on English soil, etched his name into the history books as he became the youngest England bowler to achieve such a feat in a men's Test at home. At just 20 years and 282 days old, Bashir broke the record previously held by the legendary James Anderson, now just-retired, who once dazzled English cricket with his seam bowling.

The hosts, already 1-0 up in the series for the Richards-Botham Trophy, were in a strong position after centuries from Joe Root and Harry Brook propelled them to a total of 425 in their second innings after scoring 416 in the first inning. It was the first time in England's history that they scored 400 runs in both innings of a Test, setting an imposing target of 385 for the West Indies.
