BASSETERRE, St. Kitts (Friday 15th March 2019)-With giveaways of cricket gear from members of team England following the T20 International series which concluded at Warner Park in St. Kitts earlier this week, cricket fans and enthusiasts were somewhat part of the celebration having received gifts compliments of the winning squad who defeated the West Indies.

Hands stretched over the fence near the players pavilion area painted a contrast picture of the disappointing remarks made by many fans about the Caribbean team’s disappointing play on Caribbean soil as many spectators -including locals and residents- drew close to get their hands on shoes and wicket keeping pads among other items as game souvenirs.

On Sunday 10th March, England continued its winning ways against West Indies by eight wickets in the third and final match 3-0 with 57 balls to spare.

Two days before on Friday 8th March, West Indies got the second lowest-ever total in a T20 international, dismissed for 45 with the end result of losing by 137 runs.

West Indies Captain Jason Holder on Sunday in speaking to reporters said in part: “We arguably let ourselves down in the ODI series but England still played some very good cricket as well, and the T20 series just wasn’t ours. To be fair we were outplayed but overall I’m pretty pleased.”

 “We just weren’t good enough. We didn’t adjust to the wicket. I felt it was a bit two-paced and I felt England bowled a really hard length and asked us to hit them off their lengths, and we just didn’t adjust to what the wicket threw at us and we didn’t really play well,” he added.
