England have stamped their authority across formats in the ongoing series, comfortably claiming both T20 Internationals to add to their earlier clean sweep in the ODI leg.
Led by Harry Brook, the hosts have looked a cut above their opponents and now aim to complete a flawless campaign in the shortest format as well.
The opening T20I showcased Jos Buttler in vintage form, delivering a commanding knock, while the second fixture in Bristol saw left-arm quick Luke Wood steal the spotlight. Wood's brilliant 2/25 on a batting-friendly pitch proved pivotal, underlining England’s depth and adaptability.
For the visitors, misfortune has become a recurring theme. Despite a few flashes of brilliance, their efforts have largely failed to translate into meaningful outcomes. The bowlers have struggled to contain England’s batting firepower, and their batters, though showing promise, haven't made their starts count.
This was particularly evident in the second T20I, where Johnson Charles and captain Shai Hope both threw away solid platforms after crossing 40, and senior bowlers Alzarri Joseph and Jason Holder proved expensive during a tough defense of 197.

England vs. West Indies predicted XIs, team news
England will stick with their opening pair of Jamie Smith and Ben Duckett for the third and final T20I against the West Indies. In the series opener, Smith steadied the innings after Duckett fell cheaply, while in the second match, Duckett led the charge in a successful chase of 197, laying a solid platform.
Jos Buttler, continuing in the No. 3 role he's made his own in recent series, has brought experience and calm to the top order. He'll look to continue his strong form, backed by Harry Brook, who has impressed both as a leader and a batter across all five white-ball matches this summer.
Further down the order, the explosive trio of Tom Banton, Jacob Bethell, and Will Jacks have brought relentless aggression, helping England cruise to victory in the second match without much fuss.
On the bowling front, Matthew Potts is likely to return to the XI after sitting out the second game, potentially replacing Brydon Carse, who proved expensive with the ball.
Liam Dawson, who starred in the opening match but leaked runs in the second, is still expected to hold his place as England continues to search for a consistent left-arm spin option. Meanwhile, seasoned leg-spinner Adil Rashid, who was taken apart by Jason Holder, will be looking to bounce back in style.
England predicted XI: Brook (c), Banton, Duckett, Buttler (wk), Dawson, Smith, Bethell, Jacks, Potts, Rashid, Carse.
The West Indies' ongoing woes in T20 internationals continue to spark tough conversations around both player performances and leadership choices within the camp.
After losing Evin Lewis early, the middle order showed some resilience. Johnson Charles provided a composed 47 off 39 deliveries, while Shai Hope anchored the innings with a measured 49 from 38. Skipper Rovman Powell injected much-needed energy into the innings, hammering a quickfire 34 from just 15 balls at a blistering strike rate of 226.67.
With the ball, Alzarri Joseph was the most successful, picking up two wickets, but at a hefty cost, conceding runs at over 11 per over. Akeal Hosein, Jason Holder, and Romario Shepherd chipped in with one wicket apiece, but their efforts weren't enough to contain a confident England side, who chased down the target with minimal fuss. They will be looking to salvage some pride with a respectable performance in this game.
West Indies predicted XI: Charles, Lewis, Hope (c & wk), Rutherford, Motie/Hosein, Powell, Shepherd, Chase, Joseph, Holder, Russell.
