The West Indies fielded with only 10 players in the fifth over of the match until Joseph returned in the sixth over. The right arm pacer ended the game with a figure of two for 45 off 10 overs after taking the wickets of Cox and Dan Mousley.

His spell was crucial, as it provided solid support to Matthew Forde (35 for 3) and Romario Shepherd (33 for 2) to restrict England to 263.
