Match Ended   
145/8 (20.0/20)
149/7 (19.2/20)
England beat West Indies by 3 wickets
Right then, that is it from this game where England make it three wins in a row. They seal the series and will want to continue the winning momentum while West Indies will play for their pride in the remaining couple of matches. The 4th T20I will be played on 16th November at 8 pm GMT, but as you know, you can always join us for all the build-up to the encounter. Until then, cheers and goodbye!
Jos Buttler, the victorious skipper of England says the collective effort to win the series is special. Adds that the bowlers have set the tone in all the games and Saqib Mahmood and Jofra Archer have been really good for them with the new ball. Mentions that they have a solid team and there is good competition for spots between the players which is a good sign. Appreciates Sam Curran and says the players are stepping up and putting in good performances. Concludes that they look forward to continuing the momentum.
Rovman Powell, the captain of West Indies says that it is pretty disappointing to lose so many wickets in the Powerplay. Adds that they did talk about it but they still lost wickets in clusters which makes things difficult. Tells that in this game, he and Romario Shepherd were able to build up a partnership but they need to be a bit more sensible which is missing from their game. Mentions that Akeal Hosein has been fantastic in this series and hopes that he continues the form. Ends by saying that the remaining two matches are still important as the fans will get to see two great T20I sides compete against each other and expects them to be good contests.
Saqib Mahmood is the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his 3 wickets giving away just 17 runs. He says as a bowling unit they have had the mindset of picking early wickets against this fully stacked West Indies batting lineup. Adds that it has been great thus far and his relationship with Jofra Archer has only helped both. Mentions that it was a nervy finish towards the end and he did not want to bat and is really happy with the win.
Presentation Time...
Earlier in the game, West Indies staged a strong recovery to post a competitive total, despite losing half their side within the Powerplay. Skipper Rovman Powell led the way with a gritty 54 off 41, supported by valuable contributions from Romario Shepherd and Joseph down the order. Jamie Overton and Saqib Mahmood shared six wickets evenly between them, with the momentum shift sparked by a brilliant run-out from Jacob Bethell.
West Indies, on the other hand, will be disappointed with their effort. They began well in the Powerplay with Akeal Hosein picking up two crucial wickets. Alzarri Joseph followed it up with another to put the batters under pressure. However, they failed to build on that and let England build up a partnership to get back in the game. They did create opportunities but did not grab them. Gudakesh Motie managed to get a breakthrough in the middle overs, but Nicholas Pooran dropping Liam Livingstone twice in consecutive overs cost them the game. Hosein was the only shining light with four wickets while Terrance Hinds also finally got one wicket, but all in all, it was another disappointing outing for the Windies.
Liam Livingstone did get a couple of early lives and made sure to make the most of it. He lost Sam Curran at a crucial stage but kept his cool under pressure even with little support from the other end. He picked his moments, hung in there, and took England within touching distance before unfortunately getting out on 39 off 28. Jamie Overton and Rehan Ahmed finished the job for them sealing the series win as well.
England had a slow start and found themselves under pressure after early losses, with both Phil Salt and Jos Buttler falling quickly. Jacob Bethell couldn’t make much of an impact either. However, Will Jacks looked solid, and alongside Sam Curran, they steadied the innings with sensible batting, dispatching any loose deliveries. With no pressure from the required run rate, they could take their time and settle, setting the visitors up well. England faced a minor setback when Jacks departed after a steady 32 off almost a run a ball, but Curran and Liam Livingstone carried on, keeping things stable for a while.
ENGLAND MAKES IT 3-0 AND SEALS THE SERIES! A pretty good performance from them and they get a rare win in St. Lucia which has not been a happy hunting ground for them in the last couple of years. Credit to West Indies for dragging the game to the last over but they only have themselves to blame as they could not grab their moments while defending it.

Shai Hope moves a couple of steps ahead and slips but just about manages to keep his eyes on the ball and take it cleanly with both hands as he tumbles back. A timely wicket for West Indies and they will hope to get a couple more quickly.

Will Jacks tries to make room by moving to the leg side but gets cramped up a bit. He punches it from the middle of the bat but hits it much closer to the extra cover fielder, Rovman Powell dives to his left and takes a fantastic catch. Jacks is not happy with himself but has to walk back for a well-made 32 off 33. England four down now and still needs 71 runs in 54 balls!

West Indies knows that they have to keep picking up wickets to stay in this game. It is not easy with all the dew and a long English batting line up, but if they want to keep this series alive, someone will need to step up here.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! A boundary and then the wicket! Alzarri Joseph strikes and England are now 37/3! Joseph angles it across the batter, on a nagging length, outside off with a slight nip away off the surface. Jacob Bethell leans ahead and looks to fiddle at the delivery and gets a faint outside edge that goes straight into the mitts of Nicholas Pooran behind the stumps.

Akeal Hosein To Jos Buttler OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Akeal Hosein gets his second now! This is a huge wicket for West Indies as they see the back of Jos Buttler who falls for a low score. Quicker, short and around off, Jos Buttler moves back to heave it away but this one skids through with extra bounce to hurry him into the shot. He only manages to slice it in the air, Rovman Powell at extra covers runs backward again, but this time manages to hold on to the catch. England two down now!

Akeal Hosein To Phil Salt OUT!
OUT! DRAGGED ON! Akeal Hosein draws first blood! He gets rid of Phil Salt once again and this is exactly what West Indies needed. This is the drifter, full and on middle, goes in with the arm.

Salt falls cheaply and England are rocked early!
