The third ODI between West Indies and England in Bridgetown is at risk of being affected by thunderstorms. Here's the latest weather forecasts for the game.
The series is in the balance after England staged a remarkable comeback following their loss in the first ODI. Evin Lewis scored 94 off 69 balls in the opening game after England were bowled out for 209, with Gudakesh Motie the star taking four wickets. However, despite a Shai Hope century in the second match, England chased down 329 to level the series. Liam Livingstone was unbeaten on 124 off 85 balls, with Phil Salt, Jacob Bethell and Sam Curran all chipping in with half-centuries.
West Indies won the toss in the series-decider and opted to put the tourists in to bat. They started strongly, with Matthew Forde dismissing Will Jacks in the second over of the innings, and England reduced to 24-4 by the end of the powerplay. However, from there, Sam Curran and Phil Salt put together a partnership to give England a chance of posting somewhat of a defendable total. Their partnership passed the 50-mark in the 21st over.
There is a chance of rain affecting the result however, with thunderstorms possibly interfering with play.
