10.12pm: Time for the presentations, starting with Ben Duckett as Player of the Match: "Great pitch to bat on. The ball didn't do a great deal up top, we looked to put pressure on right from the start. [Smith partnership] It's good, in Tests we haven't batted loads together. He hits the ball in a completely different area to me, so far so good. I keep it pretty simple, keep to my strengths."

Jos Buttler is named Player of the Series: "Really enjoyed it, lot of confidence in the group, played some good cricket and results to match. [Keep going in ranks?] Enjoyment of the game and finding ways to improve. New role and motivation to score runs. [No. 3] Situations you arrive at the crease, using your experience to know what's required when you walk out and how to play accordingly."

West Indies captain Shai Hope: "For us it's crucial moments in the game, with bat or ball. We haven't put a complete game together, we have to find ways, just keep chipping away. [Dot balls?] We have to find our way, how we're going to score. Keep dot balls down as much as possible. If we can marry the two together, keep scoring consistently and marry power and finesse. We've got to improve everywhere. [Ireland next] Three more games, want to take something back to the Caribbean

England captain Harry Brook: "Very pleased, the lads have done well, played exceptional cricket. To top off the series as we have tonight has been pleasing. [Marshalling bowlers] Having Daws and Rash helps. Woody bowled well, Pottsy the other night. It's been a challenge but really good. I like the depth in the batting, it gives the lads at the top permission to go out and get us off to a flyer. [Test prep] I'll be batting a lot, getting Tres throwing at me. Still plenty of things to learn but time to reflect on that."

And that is that for the first leg of the white-ball summer! Vish's report is in the slot for you to dispatch over long-on, and we'll be back for more soon - starting tomorrow with the WTC final, then straight into a proper stramash as England play India over five Tests. Thanks for keeping us company tonight. From myself, Vish and Thilak, it's goodnight. Bye!

10.03pm: Could things have gone better for Harry Brook in his first assignments as white-ball captain? West Indies whitewashed in both formats, the new regime up and swaggering. It is also England's first 3-0 sweep in T20Is since Sri Lanka came here in 2021, and they can start to look forward with a little more confidence after their recent travails in pajama cricket. For West Indies, it was a chastening night after winning the toss and opting to chase. They started poorly with the ball again, and there was no salvation despite giving it a decent crack with the bat

Carse to Powell, 1 run, pitched up and steered down the ground. A slightly anticlimactic end as England win by 37 runs and claim a 3-0 series sweep

Carse to Powell, 1 no ball, yorked him, stumps splayed, Carse silences his opponent... only for the umpire's arm to go out, it's another no-ball! I think Carse knew, actually, he turned to check as soon as Powell was starting to walk
19.4
4
Carse to Powell, FOUR, short ball, munched through square leg! Clobbered in front of the sweeper and away for four more

"Most sixes in a T20I? Are we close?" The record is 35, Andy. And I think we're up around 29-30

Carse to Powell, FOUR, another blind four, this one to deep third as he wheels away and top-edges past Buttler
19.2

Carse to Powell, FOUR, pitched full on middle and leg, Powell is aiming leg side again, slices four to deep third! Not where he was aiming, but he'll take 'em
19.1

Carse to Powell, SIX, launched over deep square leg! Just a flick off the wrists but it sends it all the way, cashing in on the free hit

Ah, Carse has overstepped. Free hit

19.1

Carse to Powell, 1 no ball, low full toss on off, plinked out to the cover sweeper and they don't run

17.6
1
Wood to Powell, 1 run, slower ball, 67mph/107kph and Powell settles for a dab into the covers

"Wood has been outstanding these last two games." Yep, he's put his hand up as the left-arm option for the new regime, Peter Morley

17.5

Akeal Hosein walks in

17.4

Gudakesh Motie is in at No. 9

JO Holder c Carse b Wood 25 (21m 12b 0x4 3x6) SR: 208.33

Dawson to Powell, no run, smashed into his partner! Holder's box saves him from injury, I think! Slightly mishit but straight into Holder's bread basket at the non-striker's end, no time to get out of the way. Dot, ahem, ball

Brings up the 50 stand between these two
