Paceman Steve Harmison skittled West Indies for their lowest ever Test total to set up a 10-wicket victory for England in the first Test on Sunday.

Harmison took seven for 12 in 12.3 overs as West Indies were bowled out for 47 in their second innings on the fourth day, leaving England needing just 20 to take a series lead. The visitors reached the victory target in just two overs, before lunch on the fourth day.

Resuming on eight for no wicket, West Indies were in disarray from the moment Graham Thorpe took a superb catch above his head in the slips off Harmison to remove opener Chris Gayle for nine.

Ramnaresh Sarwan was unlucky to be adjudged leg before for a duck and Shivnarine Chanderpaul played on, also for a duck, as the hosts slumped to 15/3. Brian Lara also went for no score, easily caught by Andrew Flintoff at second slip off Matthew Hoggard. Devon Smith was next to go brilliantly caught and bowled by Hoggard for 12 to leave Windies reeling on 21-5. Harmison completed his second five-wicket haul in Tests by removing Tino Best for a duck and later mopped up the last two wickets. (Reuters)

The sixth round of talks will focus on recognising India's red lines and possibly increasing energy purchases from the US. Other topics include easing patent rules, data flows, and giving US firms procurement access.
