SOUTHAMPTON: Ben Duckett starred with a spectacular 84 off 46 balls as England completed a clean sweep against the West Indies in the T20 series on Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

England posted a commanding total of 248-3 in 20 overs, powered by Duckett\u2019s aggressive innings featuring 10 fours and two sixes.<\/p>\n

West Indies\u2019 Rovman Powell fought valiantly with an unbeaten 79, but his efforts fell short as the visitors finished on 211-8.<\/p>\n

The victory marked England white-ball captain Harry Brook\u2019s sixth consecutive win since taking charge, signaling a strong start to his tenure.<\/p>\n

Key Performances and Match Highlights<\/strong><\/p>\n

Duckett credited his opening partner Jamie Smith, who scored a rapid 60 from just 26 balls, for setting the platform with a 120-run opening partnership in under nine overs.<\/p>\n

Brook contributed an unbeaten 35, while Jacob Bethell\u2019s explosive 36 not out included three consecutive sixes, helping England match their highest T20 total on home soil.<\/p>\n

On the bowling front, Luke Wood led the attack with figures of 3-31, dismissing key West Indies openers early and keeping pressure on the visitors throughout.<\/p>\n

West Indies skipper Shai Hope scored a fighting 45 before being dismissed by Brydon Carse, but the team could not recover from England\u2019s blistering batting display.<\/p>\n

Series Summary and Outlook<\/strong><\/p>\n

England dominated the three-match series with a 3-0 whitewash, continuing their winning momentum from the recent ODI series against West Indies.<\/p>\n

The series highlighted England\u2019s batting depth and aggressive approach in the shortest format of the game.<\/p>\n
