West Indies Form: Lack of potency on bowling front costing hosts
Taking wickets has been an issue for West Indies throughout this series so far. Just five across two games has done them little favours, with the tourists ultimately completing two comfortable run chases. Aside from winning the toss, West Indies will hope for a more clinical bowling effort here.

England Form: Three match winning streak across T20 cricket
To the delight of their fans, England have now won their last three T20i fixtures and are resembling somewhat of a strong side, which is most welcome following a period of struggle. Jos Buttler is back from injury and back in the runs with an excellent 83 from only 45 balls to help England chase down 159 in just 14.5 overs to double their series cushion.

West Indies Betting Analysis
If anyone has the potential to arrest a recent drought of wickets, it’s Gudakesh Motie. The spinner was a standout bowler in the Caribbean Premier League and shone more recently in Sri Lanka. On a different ground, his spin could be very important in the bid to unravel England’s batting line-up. Back Motie to take 2+ wickets.
England Betting Analysis
You could make a case for more than one England batter to make a high number of runs in this third T20i, but none more so than Jos Buttler. The visiting skipper was back to his best on Sunday and normally when Buttler gets on a roll, he can be very hard to stop, Backing England’s white ball captain to reach the half-century mark is a risky, but potentially highly rewarding play.
West Indies vs England Expert Prediction
West Indies have thoroughly underwhelmed across this series so far, whilst England have been excellent, back to their old selves somewhat. Their batting was always bound to click at some point and with momentum behind them, it would be no surprise if England maintained their recent hot streak. With that in mind, back the tourists to gain that uncatchable advantage with another win here.
