England Clinch Series Win Over West Indies

Jos Buttler led England to a 2-0 series victory over West Indies, chasing down 196/6 with four wickets and nine balls to spare.

Buttler was supported by Harry Brook, Jacob Bethell, and Tom Banton in a strong middle-order performance.

England's chase began with Ben Duckett and Buttler setting the platform, reaching 58/1 at the end of the PowerPlay. Duckett fell in the eighth over, but Buttler and Brook kept England on track.

Gudakesh Motie bowled a tight over, but Brook responded with a 20-run over against Romario Shepherd, hitting a six and two fours.

Hosein and Roston removed Buttler and Brook, but Bethell and Banton continued the aggressive approach, hitting sixes and bringing the equation down to 62 off 36.

Banton then exploded at the death, hitting three sixes off Alzarri Joseph in the 19th over, finishing with a whirlwind 10-ball 26. Brydon Carse sealed the victory with a four in the 19th over.

Earlier, West Indies posted 196/6 thanks to strong contributions from Shai Hope (49), Johnson Charles (48), Rovman Powell (34), and Jason Holder (29).

Adil Rashid conceded five sixes in an over to Holder and Shepherd, while Luke Wood was also targeted in the final over.
