ENG vs WI Key battles:
Jos Buttler vs Alzarri Joseph
Jos Buttler played another aggressive yet calculated innings to lay the platform for an England win in the second match and will hope to keep up the good work to end the series on a high.
The former white ball captain will have to deal with fast bowler Alzarri Joseph, who almost got the better of him in the last outing.
Ben Duckett vs Romario Shepherd
Ben Duckett, who played a good hand in England’s win over West Indies in the second T20I, will look to do the same to help the home team impose a clean sweep.
Duckett will be up against Romario Shepherd, who although has bowled well in he series but has been unlucky as far as the wicket column is concerned.
Shai Hope vs Liam Dawson
Shai Hope, the West Indies captain, fell just short of a well-deserved half century in the last game as he was outfoxed by Adil Rashid. The right-hander will look to prolong his innings in the upcoming game.
Hope will go head-to-head against Liam Dowson, who will take the new ball. The left-arm spinner who went for plenty of runs in the last match would like to make a strong comeback in the third and final game.
Jason Holder vs Adil Rashid
Former West Indies captain Jason Holder provided the much-needed impetus that propelled West Indies to a challenging total of 196 runs will look to replicate the same in the final game.
Holder will once again have to tackle the leg-spin of Adil Rashid, who was hit for three consecutive sixes in the 19th over by Jason Holder in the second game.
