England will aim to complete a dominant 3-0 clean sweep over West Indies in the final T20I of their 2025 series at the County Ground in Chelmsford on May 26. Having already secured the series with commanding wins in the first two matches, England’s all-round strength has been evident, led by captain Nat Sciver-Brunt’s unbeaten 55 in the second game and a potent bowling attack featuring Emily Arlott and Lauren Bell, who have consistently dismantled the West Indies batting line-up.
The visitors, led by Hayley Matthews, have struggled to match England’s intensity and depth, with their batting faltering despite Matthews’ valiant efforts. The match promises to showcase England’s intent to maintain their momentum as they prepare for the upcoming ODI leg, while West Indies will look to salvage pride and build confidence in a challenging tour.

County Ground Pitch Report:
The pitch at the County Ground in Chelmsford is traditionally known for being batting-friendly, offering good pace and even bounce that allows batters to play their shots with confidence. Early on, there may be some movement for the seamers, especially under overcast conditions, but as the match progresses, the surface tends to settle, making stroke play easier. Spinners could also come into play in the middle overs as the pitch wears, but overall, it is expected to favour the batters. A high-scoring contest is likely if the batters can weather the initial swing, making the toss important—teams may prefer to chase, taking advantage of any dew and the consistent nature of the pitch under lights.
