PITCH REPORT - Nikhil Uttamchandani is near the deck. He starts by saying that there is a 3-metre difference between the square boundaries with 64 metres to one side and 61 to the other. Adds that it is 73 metres down the ground. Feels that wind will be a factor that batters will have to take into account while clearing the boundaries. Informs that out of the 11 ODIs played here since 2020, 9 of them have been won by the chasing side. Carlos Brathwaite joins him and says that batters should look to hit straight. From a bowler's perspective, he feels that they should force the batters to hit towards the longer of the two square boundaries and use the wind to their advantage.

Shimron Hetmyer is down for a quick chat. He says he has stopped overthinking about his game and has started to enjoy it, which is showing in the way he is playing. He talks about one outing here five years ago, where he scored a century against England. Adds he was really young in the squad, which now brings a lot of fond memories, and it's very special to play against England at Barbados.

England (Playing XI) - Phil Salt (WK), Will Jacks, Jordan Cox, Jacob Bethell, Liam Livingstone (C), Sam Curran, Dan Mousley, Jamie Overton (In for Saqib Mahmood), Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Reece Topley (In for John Turner).

TOSS - West Indies have won the toss and they will BOWL first.

With both teams eager to clinch the series, this final match promises intense competition. England will seek to capitalize on their recent momentum, while the West Indies will be looking to leverage their home advantage and reclaim dominance. Expect an action-packed series decider. Stick around for the toss and team news.

On the West Indies side, Shai Hope and Evin Lewis have been pivotal in the hosts' batting lineup. Hope, who has amassed 123 runs in two games, including a memorable century in the second ODI, was instrumental in giving the team a competitive total last time around. Keacy Carty and Sherfane Rutherford have also contributed valuable middle-order runs, giving West Indies stability. Gudakesh Motie's four-wicket haul in the first ODI was critical in their initial victory, while Matthew Forde has shown his ability to claim timely wickets throughout the series.

For England, Liam Livingstone has been the standout performer, especially with his match-winning unbeaten 124 in the second ODI, making him the leading run-scorer of the series with 172 runs. His explosive innings not only secured England’s chase but also underlined his importance in the middle order. Phil Salt contributed a steady fifty, applying pressure on the West Indies’ bowlers. Meanwhile, Sam Curran showed his worth with the bat, adding depth to the lineup. England's bowling attack will have to click collectively as a unit, particularly Adil Rashid who will be crucial in taking key wickets during the middle phase to keep West Indies in check.

Hello and welcome to the ODI series finale between England and West Indies at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados! After two matches, the three-game ODI series is tied at 1-1. West Indies claimed a commanding win in the first ODI, while England stormed back with a high-powered chase in the second game. Both teams have showcased some superb individual performances, making this final match in Bridgetown a highly anticipated decider. Players from both sides have displayed exceptional skill, setting up an exciting contest as England aim to clinch the series, and West Indies look to triumph on home turf.
