Time for the post match presentations...

Earlier in the game, England batted first and could only manage a below-par score of 132 with Phil Salt, Moeen Ali, and Liam Livingstone among the runs. With the ball, the hosts West Indies were terrific and did not allow England to get away with freebies. Gudakesh Motie was the best bowler on show with 3 for 24 in his spell. The likes of Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, and Andre Russell chipped in with two each. West Indies will be delighted with the series win as they build up to their preparation for the T20 World Cup.

Reece Topley and Adil Rashid were excellent with the ball as the duo picked up 4 wickets in the combined spell of 8 overs and gave away just 38 runs. Chris Woakes also bowled a tidy spell while Sam Curran bowled a terrific penultimate over to take the game deep but the rest of the bowlers had an off day as England suffered another series defeat.

A hard-fought win here for the West Indies as they beat England by 4 wickets with four balls to spare and take the series 3-2. Chasing a middling score of 133 for the win, Brandon King and Nicholas Pooran were dismissed early on but Johnson Charles and Shai Hope added important runs and batted with maturity. Charles was dismissed in the 8th over but Hope carried on and found an able partner in Sherfane Rutherford. The duo batted sensibly and got their side closer to the target. Shai Hope anchored the innings nicely and in the company of Jason Holder, they got the job done.
