The third and final WI vs BAN T20I between West Indies and Bangladesh will be taking place on Friday (December 20) at the Arnos Vale Ground, Kingstown.

Bangladesh have already clinched the series by winning the first two WI vs BAN games. The visitors thrashed the two-time T20 World Cup winners by 27 runs in the second T20I. Batting first, Bangladesh scored 129/7 in the allotted 20 overs.

Shamim Hossain impressed with the bat for the visitors, smashing an unbeaten 35 off just 17 balls to guide his team to a respectable total.

In reply, West Indies were bowled out for 102 runs. Only three players could reach double digits as the hosts endured another tough outing with the bat. Roston Chase's 32-run knock was the best effort from the West Indies players.

For Bangladesh, Taskin Ahmed was the pick of the bowlers, taking 3 for 16 in less than 4 overs. With both the teams now set for the third and final T20I, here is the weather and pitch report for the game.

WI vs BAN Weather Report Of Kingstown:

The third and final WI vs BAN T20I will be played in Kingstown. The game is scheduled to begin at 8:00 PM local time on Thursday (December 19). According to reports, the chances of rain during the game time are between 20-30 percent.

During the daytime, the prediction for rain is more than 40 percent and the start of the game could also be delayed due to a wet outfield. The temperature will be hovering in the 20s during the game.

The third game will also be played at Arnos Vale Ground, the same venue where the first two matches took place. Arnos Vale is not known for producing high-scoring games and the story remained the same during the first two T20Is.

In both the games, the batsmen from both sides struggled to play shots. Even a side like West Indies which is filled with some of the best big-hitting batsmen in the world failed to do well on the pitch. It would not be surprising if the third game also turns out to be a low-scoring affair.

Conclusion:

With nothing to lose in the third T20I, West Indies will be coming out all guns blazing and will be hoping to restore their pride. On the other hand, Bangladesh will also play freely after already clinching the series. So unlike the first two T20Is, the third game could see some fireworks from the batsmen.
