T💯he third and final T20I𓆏 of the three-match series between West Indies and Sri Lanka will be played at the Coolidge Cricket Ground in Antigua on March 7.

The match is schedu🌠led to start at 6:00 PM local time, 10:00 PM GMT or 3:30 AM IST (March 8), and i🅺t will be streamed live on FanCode.

The hosts, West Indies, will hope that the top-four of Lendl Simmons, Evin Lewis, Chris Gayl▨e and Nicholas Pooran offer a lot more than they have so far in the previous two games. Akeal Hosein, who had an impressive CPL, could replace Fabian Allen in the final XI.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka are unlikely to make any changes in the🍬ir winning line-up.

Pitch report

Spinners are very effective at the Coolidge Cricket Ground, but discipl🍒ined fast🦂 bowling has also proven useful. This venue in Antigua is not the typical high-scoring one, majorly due to the slowness of the track. To set a big target for the opposition, at least a batsman needs to play patience knock and rotate strike at regular intervals. 160 has been a defendable total at this venue.

Head to Head record:

Matches played: 13 | West Indies Won: 6 | Sr🥂i L💫anka Won: 7 | Tied: 0
