England's batsmen took their turn to set up an emphatic victory as the home England has scored 328 for 7 wickets prior was played excellent perfumes in the team total game his performed was good and its amazing shots are played some time is played a some shots in this game and is career-best 87 and is given a good partnership with Owais Shah and shah also played a greate shots in this game and is playd 75 runs. powered England to an imposing 328 and once Chris Gayle fell early there was never any chance of West Indies getting near.

England can't be blamed for making it a one-sided contest and a one-sided series They have done all that could have been asked of them in the opening weeks of the season, following up their convincing Test wins with efficient displays of one-day cricket and strauss is played good game wit shah and prior and batting first was a useful experience as it meant they had to pace the innings and assess what a decent target would be.

end of the game 328 was the highest ODI total at Edgbaston, and their sixth highest of all time and westindies players was really underpresser afetr Andrew Strauss,in his last international outing before the Ashes, and Ravi Boppara was opend with a stand of 81.England's use of the batting Powerplay has often come under scrutiny, but here they made full use of it by adding 55 in five overs as Prior and Shah cut loose and clean late striking meant 98 off the last 10.

if they were to have any realistic hope of chasing down for 329 score, West Indies needed a big innings from their captain and good score required from the power play, but after two early boundaries Gayle fell in the third over when he spooned an attempted pull to mid-on. After a brief shower, Sarwan opened his account with consecutive fours off Stuart Broad only to fall in the next over when he miscued a drive to cover where Strauss held a smart one-handed catch jumping to his left this is a greate catch for strauss.

Bravo at least provided a momentary spark with two sixes off Dimitri Mascarenhas, but his fun ended when the deserving Tim Bresnan trapped him on the back foot. From there the game drifted towards a soporific finish, a suitable climax to a tour that won't linger long in the memory. It must be hoped that the ICC World Twenty20 can spark the summer into life.
