Australia seal 5-0 win in West Indies T20 series

Warner Park, St. Kitts and Nevis, Fifth T20 International

West Indies 170 (19.4 overs): Hetmyer 52, Rutherford 35, Dwarshuis 3-41

Australia 173-7 (17 overs): Owen 37, Green 32, Hosein 3-17

Australia wins by three wickets.

In their final T20 series match, Australia won by three wickets to wrap up the series’ final game.

Shimron Hetmyer hit 52 from 31 balls as Australian bowler Ben Dwarshuis took 3-41 as the hosts won the game at Warner Park in St Kitts and Nevis.

When Australia was defeated 25-3, the Windies had a chance to win, but Cameron Green, Tim David, and Mitch Owen restored their team’s momentum.

In 17 balls, Owen sprinted to 37 runs, including three fours and three sixes, while David smashed four sixes in a 12-ball 30.

Australia’s captain Mitchell Marsh, “I didn’t anticipate 5-0 at the start of the series,” he said. However, we had some excellent cricket. After the fourth game, we discussed it.

No Australian team had ever completed a clean sweep, we knew. Guys have already entered the company and played various roles.

West Indies, who lost the Test series against Australia by 3-0, are in for a difficult time with the T20 series defeat.
