With a commanding 2-0 lead in the series, Australia defeated the West Indies by 34 runs in the second Twenty20 International. Despite their best efforts, the visitors ultimately lost the two matches. Australia will be keen to maintain their dominant form and destroy the visitors, while they will be desperate to finish the tour with a victory.
On February 13, the T20I begins at Perth at 16:00 local time. The biggest run chase at Perth Stadium dates to 2022 when Australia defeated Sri Lanka 158-3.
Even though Australia prevailed in the high-scoring encounter in Adelaide, they are still dominating performance. Once more, we anticipate that a very strong team will be chosen, and the Australian squad whitewashed to the Caribbean.
Now the situation for the Visitors is that must win this game. Aussies appeared to have a 2-0 lead in the series, and We expect them to be extremely competitive in this encounter.
AUS vs WI Team Preview & Squads
Australia
In preparation for the next ICC T20 World Cup in the West Indies, Australia is looking good. They batted first in both current Twenty20 International Series games against the West Indies, amassing enormous 200-run totals and winning handily. David Warner’s explosive 70 off 36 balls in the opening Twenty20 International proved to be the game-winner, and Glenn Maxwell’s magnificent 120* off 55 balls in the second match put the visitors out of the game.
This is a scary batting order for Australia. Mitchell Marsh, Tim David, or Josh Inglis will understand you if Warner or Maxi don’t. Marsh is overdue for a huge one, and now that the series is secured, the captain may play much more freely and deliver a nice knock. Tim David has also been using a clean strike. He is hitting it at 219 in this series, so don’t be surprised if he makes another lovely cameo in the third match.
In terms of bowling, Adam Zampa has consistently kept things tight on these level decks and caused problems for the West Indian hitters with his leg breaks. Marcus Stoinis is also in the mix, claiming 5 wickets at an economy of 8 in just 2 games. Josh Hazlewood will have fun bowling on this surface, and he also looks terrific.

West Indies
Despite showing promise at times during this T20I series, West Indies have fallen short of expectations. While they have shown flashes of batting mastery, they must play a more comprehensive game. The two most notable efforts from the side thus far have been made by Rovman Powell (63 off 36 balls in the second game) and Brandon King (53 off 37 balls in the first T20I).
Johnson Charles has been a constant at the top, so we anticipate another valuable contribution from him. But the club will be counting on Andre Russell and Nicholas Pooran to put on strong displays. In the second Twenty20 International, Russell showed promise with a 37 off 16 balls, and you should expect him to keep up that trend.
In this series, the Caribbean bowlers have given up a lot of runs. Although the pitches have been flat, they have made far too many mistakes. All bowlers have gone at an economy rate of more than 10, except Alzarri Joseph. These are concerning indicators, and players like Jason Holder and Akeal Hosein will need to do much better.

Match Details
Match
Australia vs West Indies, 3rd T20I | West Indies tour of Australia 2024
Perth Stadium has hosted seven Twenty20 Internationals, with the chasing team winning five of them. The side that wins the toss will therefore probably decide to bat second in this instance.
On the day of the game, Perth will experience hot, breezy weather under clear skies. We are going to have a full match because there is no chance of rain.
Perth Stadium has a reputation for being fast-paced and lively. You may anticipate a pitch that will be less challenging for the batsmen in T20 cricket, though. Batters may struggle early in their innings, but fast bowlers will have support throughout. But they will be able to score runs more efficiently as they get adjusted to the bounce.
