England bounced back from Friday's blind cricket World Cup defeat to India with a nine-wicket win over the West Indies.
The West Indies were put into bat and could only manage 127 all out with England claiming five run outs.
Bryn Reynolds took two wickets in his first match of the tournament with one apiece for Heindrich Swanepoel, David Townley and Andy Powers.
England cruised to their target despite the dismissal of opener Luke Sugg for 27.
Mark Pickup reached 15 not out with totally blind batsman Nathan Foy, who is England's all-time top run scorer, smashing 72 not out as they easily reached the victory target of 128.
Foy was named man of the match for the eighth time in his international career as he passed 50 for the 10th time for England.
The victory puts England on the brink of a semi-final place which they will clinch if they avoid defeat against New Zealand on Sunday.
