England Triumphs in T20 Series Against West Indies with Nerve-Wracking Wins

England secured a Twenty20 series victory against West Indies in St Lucia with two matches remaining. Despite earlier setbacks, late performances by key players, including Liam Livingstone, ensured England's win. West Indies captain Rovman Powell highlighted the need for strategic improvements after persistent early dismissals challenged their performance.

England clinched a Twenty20 series victory over the West Indies with a match to spare, following a tense final-over win in St Lucia this Thursday.

Despite a prolonged rain delay, the visitors bounced back strongly, reducing West Indies to a precarious 37 for five. A noteworthy half-century from West Indies skipper Rovman Powell helped the hosts achieve a somewhat respectable 145 for eight. England, however, managed to chase down the target with strategic late-inning contributions from Liam Livingstone aiding a first white-ball triumph in the Caribbean since 2019.

After a shaky start in the run chase, critical performances by Sam Curran and Livingstone ensured a victorious outcome for England. Despite some missed opportunities, Saqib Mahmood's excellent bowling performance, claiming three for 17, set the stage for England's success. The victorious captain, Jos Buttler, praised the team's powerplay strategies, promising stronger performances going forward.
