ENG vs WI Match Preview

England (ENG) will be looking to inflict another whitewash on the West Indies (WI) when the two teams clash at The Rose Bowl in Southampton in the third and final T20I on Tuesday, June 10.

The Three Lions won the three-match ODI series 3-0 and have already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the T20I rubber. The first T20I was played in Chester-le-Street, where England posted 188/6 before restricting the tourists to 167/9. In the second T20I in Bristol, the West Indies posted 196/6. However, England made light work of the target, romping home in 18.3 overs with four wickets to spare.

While the West Indies batters have done reasonably well, Shai Hope has been let down by his bowlers. There seems to be a lack of control from the pacers, and spinners have lacked penetration. England, on the other hand, has looked like a well-oiled machine under new captain Harry Brook. There seems to be a sense of calmness in the players, even when they have momentarily been on the back foot against the Caribbean side.

Pitch Report

12 T20Is have been played at The Rose Bowl in Southampton so far. Eight games have been won by teams batting first, while chasing teams have emerged victorious on four occasions. The average first-innings total at the venue is 174. The new ball might swing around for a couple of overs, and the opening batters will have to mix caution with aggression.

ENG vs WI Weather Report:

Forecast: Partly cloudy, 16-20°C, 20-30% chance of rain, humidity ~65%, winds 15-25 kmph aiding swing.

Impact: Overcast skies assist pacers early; dew likely, favoring batting second. Low risk of major interruptions.

Probable Top Performers

Probable Best Batter: Jos Buttler

Jos Buttler
Jos Buttler.

Jos Buttler has been the epitome of consistency in recent times. After a sensational Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 campaign, the former England white-ball skipper has registered scores of 96 (59) and 47 (36) in the two T20Is against the West Indies. The leading run-getter in the series would want to finish on a high by playing another significant knock.


Probable Best Bowler: Luke Wood

Luke Wood
Luke Wood.

Luke Wood could be the bowler to watch out for on Tuesday. He replaced Matthew Potts in the playing XI in the second T20I. The left-arm seamer struck with the first ball of the match, sending the dangerous Evin Lewis packing. He gave away just four runs in his first two overs with the new ball. Wood returned to bowl overs 16 and 20, giving away 21 runs and picking up the wicket of Johnson Charles. The 29-year-old has the ability to swing the new ball and that could make him lethal.
