Windies ran out of gas in the final two matches but nevertheless they have had an excellent summer and they should be mighty proud about that. They looked a team that was down and out a couple of months back. But they have announced their arrival back into the international arena via some phenomenal performances and sent out a notification to all the teams in the World Cup that they shouldn't be taken lightly. Time for England to pack their bags and go back home on a high. And time for us to sign off our coverage. This is Varun Dixit saying goodbye in the presence of Abhinand and Siva. Good night/Good morning!

Eoin Morgan: We have played very well in this series. New guys have come in and have taken the limelight. These are the guys who don't get a lot of opportunities. Denly and Billings have played very well. And Man of the Series Jordon was outstanding too. And today's game was all about David Willey. The more we have played in the Windies, naturally you get better.

Chris Jordon, Man of the Series: It was a good series for me. I wanted to have some fun and we managed to get some victories along the way. I was able to shoot different skills in this series. In the last match, I banged it in and in the first match I used my variations. I am not thinking about the World Cup. I would like to take the process to take care of itself.

David Willey, Man of the Match. I tried to put the ball in the good areas and forced some errors from the Windies batsmen. I want to take wickets whenever I get the ball. I try and take the early wickets, when I take them that's a bonus.

Jason Holder: I don't think there was a drop of intensity. We didn't bat well in the last two matches. And England stuck to their plans and executed it well. If the conditions are not well, we should be able to adapt. We are still working on our death bowling. I think this was a good tour. We won the Test series and we fought hard in the ODI series. We weren't at our best in the T20s. There are a lot of positives for us. Our next assignment is against Ireland and we are looking forward to that.

18:00 Local Time, 22:00 GMT, 03:30 IST: A complete mismatch! Two shambolic batting performances from the T20 World Champions. After getting skittled out for 45 (the second lowest T20I score) on Friday while chasing, the hosts decided to bat first on the same track. However, that didn't change their fortunes. They lost their top four to Willey inside the powerplay and never recovered from that blow. They kept losing wickets and were folded for a paltry score of 71. In reply, England came out all guns blazing - scoring 16 off the opening over with Hales hitting 4 4 6 off successive deliveries. There were two maiden overs in the second innings - one each from Fabian Allen and Bishoo - but England were never going to be any sort of trouble. England lost just two wickets as they hunted down the target with 57 balls to spare.

Bishoo to Morgan, FOUR, finishes with a four and raps up the series 3-0 with it. The limited over skipper, Morgan goes up to Root and gives him a serious hug. Their camaraderie is proving to be excellent for England cricket in LOI. It was a flighted delivery on the stumps, Morgan nails the sweep shot to perfection and beats the square leg fielder for a boundary

Bishoo to Morgan, SIX, enough of blocking says Morgan and he has send this one out of the park. He dashes down the track, takes it on the full and tonks it over the head of the bowler for half-a-dozen

Bishoo to Root, 1 run, works it to mid-on for a single

9.6

John Campbell to Morgan, no run, a peach from John Campbell. That's a dream of a delivery for a offie. It was on a fuller length and spins away with a lot of venom, the spin on the delivery forced Morgan to play down the wrong line and it raps him on the pads. It was spinning away from the off-stump

9.5

John Campbell to Root, 1 run, knocks it down to long-on

9.4

John Campbell to Root, no run, there was a horrible miscommunication in the middle. And that almost resulted in a wicket. Root nudges it wide of the keeper, both batsmen were unsure about taking the run. And Root came a long way down, fortunately for him, the throw failed to hit the target at the striker's end and he survived

9.3

John Campbell to Root, no run, flatter one wide of off, Root blocks it to mid-wicket

9.2

John Campbell to Root, no run, stays put and defends it back

9.1

John Campbell to Root, no run, fuller and spinning into Root, he works it to mid-wicket

John Campbell, right-arm off break, comes into the attack

Bishoo to Morgan, no run, second maiden of the innings. It was a flatter delivery wide of off, it skids off the deck and rips past the outside edge of Morgan

8.5

Bishoo to Morgan, no run, fuller and on the stumps, Morgan plunges forward and defends it to cover

8.4

Bishoo to Morgan, no run, straight bat defensive shot back to the bowler
