ENG vs WI 3rd T20I: West Indies aim to prevent series sweep
England and West Indies are set to lock horns in the third and final T20I match on Tuesday at The Rose Bowl, Southampton. England, having already sealed the series win with two consecutive victories in the first two games, will be aiming to clean sweep the series. They claimed a huge win in the second game, overhauling a target of 197 in 18.3 overs.
Jos Buttler and Harry Brook, with their scores of 47 and 34, respectively, laid the foundation for England’s chase. And, down the order, Tom Banton hammered winning runs, hitting an unbeaten 30 off 11, including three boundaries and two sixes.
West Indies, meanwhile, would aim to bring an end to the series on a high note. The disappointment for West Indies continues after they kicked off their England tour with an embarrassing 3-0 ODI series defeat. The final T20I is a fine opportunity for the Caribbean side to demonstrate their skills and salvage pride.
