West Indies win by seven wickets with 31 balls to spare. Scoreline reads 2-1 in favour of Pakistan
That's It.. It's All Over
Whether or not 138 was enough is no more a discussion. Evin Lewis's 91 and the manner in which he got those has ensured that even a fifty more in the equation could have been chased down by that man today.
He batted like he was possessed. Nine sixes and each one of them went like a canon. If he comes out to bat like this tomorrow in the fourth T20I too, Pakistan better make some arrangements to stop that from happening. As of now, West Indies would be delighted to have taken the series to the final game. Pakistan still have the upper hand, can they win it and win the series along with it? We shall know tomorrow. Until then, this is
Badree Is On Fire
Imad Wasim goes back as well. Beautiful execution from Badree there, foxed the batsman with the wrong un as Wasim looked to flick it on the on side. Flash stumping is what one has to call that. Back foot in the air for a fraction of a second and Chadwick Walton proved it was enough.
Two wickets in four balls. West Indies are showing some intention here.
Badree Draws First Blood
Ahmed Shehzad, what were you up to? Pathetic thinking to step out on the second delivery, without even seeing enough of the spinner. All of this after having struck a boundary off the first ball.
Dances down the track and misses a straightforward delivery, any turn, not really, maybe hardly. Pakistan would believe they threw that wicket away.
And in typical Ravi Shastri style, "Walks in like thunder, goes out like lightning.."
Elevens

Toss Time, Folks
Pakistan have won the toss and as expected, have chosen to bat first. Looks like, they have decided to go in with an unchanged side.
And West Indies have brought in Jason Mohammed for this contest, and Rovman Powell goes out. Btw, Mohammed will make his debut today.
Build Up
Hello everyone. We are back again with the third T20I between Pakistan and West Indies. It's hard to believe how the hosts have blown away key opportunities in the couple of games thus far, and having lost both their games in the four-match series now, they don't stand a chance to win the series anymore, but they have a lot to play for.
Pakistan would be brimming with joy but would want to keep any bit of overconfidence away, a win would give them the series and there is no better way than starting off the tour, isn't it?
Don't go far and let's expect this contest to be a humdinger. Btw, I am Shirshendu and you can throw in questions, ideas, start discussions by doing a simple thing - tweet to @Shirsh9
