On Tuesday, the fourth edition of their five-match T20I series between West Indies and England takes place at their third site. West Indies now have a 2-1 lead in the series after England’s first victory came on Saturday when they managed to chase down an unlikely goal of 223 with one ball left! At 16:00 local time, the fourth game of the series kicks off at Tarouba’s Brian Lara Stadium.
In the third T20I, West Indies came dangerously close to winning the series, but they could not prevent England’s potent hitters from crossing the boundary. Even though the series momentum has now shifted, West Indies still stand a great chance of winning this game thanks to their reliable batting lineup.
Following the outstanding performances on Saturday from Phil Salt, Jos Buttler, Liam Livingstone, and Harry Brook, there will be a lot of confidence in England’s batting lineup. The bowling lineup has the potential to level the series if it can prevent the West Indies’ hitters from reaching a large total.
Before the third Twenty20 International, Sherfane Rutherford took Shimron Hetmyer’s spot in the middle order, who was out of form. This was the only change made by the West Indies. Romario Shepherd will pose a challenge to Andre Russell once more as he is anticipated to be fit following his recovery from a minor ailment.
With 12 boundaries from number three in his innings, left-hander Nicholas Pooran appeared to have won the match for the West Indies on Saturday. In the third Twenty20 International, captain Rovman Powell was batting with his usual aggression. In the first three games, the Jamaican had amassed 120 runs at bat.
In the two games he has played in the series, West Indies’ most economical bowler has been left-arm spinner Gudakesh Motie. In this game, England will try to attack him, which will provide more chances to take wickets. The former captain and all-format international Jason Holder took a wicket in each of the series’ first three games, and on Saturday, he secured the crucial wicket of Liam Livingstone.

For Saturday’s triumph, Rehan Ahmed and Chris Woakes were pulled from the England team, and Reece Topley and Gus Atkinson were added back to the starting lineup. Tymal Mills is probably going to be benched for this game thus we anticipate Ahmed returning to the squad.
With four fours and nine sixes in his undefeated innings, right-handed opener Phil Salt won the Player of the Match award in the third Twenty20 International. The captain, Jos Buttler, was beaming following the victory on Saturday. In this Twenty20 international, he hopes to record his third half-century in his previous six international games.
On Saturday, Adil Rashid, the leg-spinner, continued his remarkable streak of wicket-taking in international cricket by dismissing Nicholas Pooran and Shai Hope. The tall left-hander Reece Topley made his comeback to the national team after suffering an injury during the 2023 Cricket World Cup. After three balls, he claimed a wicket to start the game on Saturday.

Brian Lara Stadium
Batting first has won both of the past two Twenty20 Internationals at Tarouba by a margin of 4 and 68 runs. We therefore anticipate that both teams will wish to bat first in this encounter.
The weather report indicates that there will be thunderstorms in the area on Tuesday afternoon. They shouldn’t last long, though, since warm weather will hasten the outfield’s drying off.
The pitch at Brian Lara Stadium frequently provides the bowlers with considerable help. It will be difficult to chase down any first-inning score of more than 190 in the second innings.
In the last five games, West Indies has won three while England has won two games.
