Overview

• West Indies’ delayed arrival north of the Thames forced umpires to postpone the toss until 1:10 pm and kick off play at 1:30 pm.
• To avoid gridlock, several England players abandoned their bus and arrived on Lime rental bikes, warming up on the outfield ahead of the delayed start.
• Overcast skies and a 90-minute rain interruption led to a DLS reduction to 40 overs per side and set England a revised target of 246.
• Opener Jamie Smith’s explosive 64 off 28 balls, supported by Ben Duckett’s 58, powered a 29.4-over chase.
• A seven-wicket victory under new captain Harry Brook completed England’s 3-0 series whitewash over a West Indies side seeking a consolation win.
