The West Indies stunned England with a dramatic four-wicket victory in the latest T20 clash at Bridgetown, Barbados, turning the match on its head in the final overs.
Chasing 167, the West Indies found themselves in early trouble at 45-4 after a fiery opening spell from England’s Jofra Archer and Reece Topley. But a composed 62* from Nicholas Pooran, supported by Romario Shepherd’s quick-fire 31, saw the hosts recover and clinch the win with just two balls to spare.
Earlier, England posted 166-7, anchored by Jos Buttler’s 54 and a late surge from Liam Livingstone. West Indies’ spinners, led by Akeal Hosein, kept the run rate in check through the middle overs, setting up the tense finish.
The result levels the series at 1-1, with both teams eyeing momentum as they head to St. Lucia for the decider. Fans and analysts alike are left asking: Was this England letting victory slip—or the West Indies seizing their moment when it mattered most?
