📌 Match Context & What’s at Stake
England Women have already secured the series with commanding 8-wicket and 9-wicket wins in the first two T20Is. Their performance has been driven by Sciver-Brunt’s tactical brilliance, Dunkley’s big-hitting form, and Bell’s pace. West Indies, despite Hayley Matthews’ heroic century in the opening game, have lacked team support and depth.
This final T20I is a chance for West Indies to restore pride and for England to finish a clinical whitewash.
