15:00 Local Time, 19:00 GMT, 00:30 IST: Hello and a warm welcome to our live coverage of the fourth match of the 5-match T20I series between West Indies and England in St Lucia. The visitors have already sealed the series and are 3-0 ahead with their players having performed brilliantly throughout. There’s a possibility for a clean sweep and England would be eager to capitalize on that opportunity. The visitors might give a couple of new players a chance today who have made it to the international squad courtesy of their strong showing in the domestic circuit. West Indies, on the other hand, have been off-color. The Windies openers have been poor so far and as a result, that has dented the balance of their side. Powell and Shepherd have looked good but there’s much to be desired from the rest of the batting lineup. Their bowlers have also blown hot and cold. Akeal Hosein shone with a 4-fer in the last game but it wasn’t enough to halt England’s juggernaut. England’s batting depth came to the rescue while some dull fielding from the hosts also helped their cause. There’s a lot of pride at stake for the West Indies and they would want to lift themselves. Expect a cracker! Stick around as toss and team lineups are around the corner…
