Chasing 180, only James Vince got going for England with the bat as he scored 55 runs off 35 balls. Sam Billings also chipped in with 41 from 28 deliveries, but it did not prove enough as West Indies kept taking wickets at regular intervals. The Men in Maroon ultimately restricted the English side for 162, winning the series decider by 17 runs.

Earlier, captain Kieron Pollard and Rovman Powell played unbeaten knocks of 41 and 35 to help West Indies post 179/4 in their stipulated 20 overs. For England, Adil Rashid and Liam Livingstone returned with two wickets each.
