With the five-match T20I series on the line, West Indies and Australia are set to clash in the third T20I at Warner Park in Basseterre. Australia currently hold a 2-0 lead after impressive performances in the opening two games, and they’ll be eager to seal the series with another commanding win.
For the visitors, things have clicked well in all departments. Their top order has looked solid, the bowlers have executed their plans effectively, and their fielding has been sharp. Riding high on momentum, Australia will aim to deliver another clinical performance and clinch the series with two games to spare.
Meanwhile, the West Indies find themselves in a must-win situation. A loss in this fixture would mean the end of their hopes in the series. The home side will look to regroup quickly, especially in the batting department where they’ve lacked consistency. With the support of the home crowd and the familiarity of conditions at Warner Park — a venue known for high-scoring matches — the Windies will hope to mount a strong comeback.

Warner Park Pitch Report:
Warner Park Stadium in Basseterre, St. Kitts, is known for producing high-scoring encounters due to its batter-friendly surface. The pitch offers reliable bounce and pace, enabling batters to play their strokes freely. While spinners can exploit subtle pitch variations to make an impact, pacers usually rely on slower deliveries and cutters to succeed.
