In a thrilling finale, England sealed a Twenty20 series victory against the West Indies in St. Lucia, with two matches still to play. The win came in a tense final-over finish during the third T20 match, after a prolonged rain delay had previously threatened to dampen the series prospects.

The game saw England quickly dominate, reducing the West Indies to a precarious 37 for five. Key performances from bowlers like Saqib Mahmood, who took three for 17, helped ensure the hosts' middle-order collapse. A valiant half-century from West Indies captain Rovman Powell set a challenging target of 145 for eight.

Despite early setbacks in their innings, including England's Phil Salt falling for just four runs, resilient batting from Sam Curran and power-hitting from Liam Livingstone steered the tourists to a long-awaited series win in the Caribbean. This victory is a significant boost for England after previous disappointing performances in international tournaments.
