England secured a Twenty20 series victory over West Indies on Thursday in St Lucia, wrapping up the win with two fixtures still to play. Despite facing a rain delay, England dominated the third match, reducing the West Indies' top order to a precarious 37 for five.
West Indies captain Rovman Powell managed to boost his team's performance with a significant half-century, helping the hosts reach a more respectable total of 145 for eight from their 20 overs. However, England faced early challenges in their chase.
Liam Livingstone's late-game big hitting proved decisive as England claimed their first white-ball series win in the Caribbean since 2019. The win sets the stage for the remaining two matches at the Daren Sammy Cricket Ground this weekend.
