WI vs ENG, 3rd ODI: Carty, King centuries propel West Indies to series victory over England

Stunning centuries from Keacy Carty and Brandon King steered West Indies to an eight-wicket victory over England in the third and final One-Day International in Barbados on Wednesday as the hosts sealed the series 2-1.

England batted first, with a fine 74 from opener Phil Salt helping the tourists recover from 24-4 to post a respectable 263-8, a late flurry of runs from the bat of fast bowler Jofra Archer (38 not out) helping their cause.

Archer struggled with the ball, however, as Keacy (128 not out) posted his first international ton and King (102) made his third ODI century in a second-wicket partnership of 209 to guide West Indies to victory.

England takes on West Indies again in the first of five Twenty20 Internationals at Barbados’ Kensington Oval on Saturday, with white-ball captain Jos Buttler in line for a potential return from injury.
