Bangladesh has already bagged the T20I series 2-0 against West Indies after a gritty 27-run win in the second match.
Preview
Rovman Powell led West Indies hopes to avoid a series clean sweep as they turn their fortunes against Bangladesh for the third and final T20I, slated to take place on December 20 at Arnos Vale Ground in Kingstown. The home team has already lost the series but will be looking to win the final match. On the other hand, Liton Das and his men, who already sealed the series with one match to spare, now aim to mark a whitewash against the hosts.
The home team lost the T20I series after a crushing defeat in the second T20I game. The Bangla Tigers posted 129/7 in the given 20 overs, with Shamim Hossain playing a knock off an unbeaten 35 to help his side post a decent total. However, the West Indies failed to keep up with the Bangladesh bowling attack as they were bundled out on 102.

Pitch Report
Captains- 9
Nicholas Pooran WI | wk
Pooran has failed to showcase his form in the first two matches. The left-handed, hard-hitting power hitter, might step up in the last game to help his side avoid a shambolic clean sweep. The southpaw has made 1 and 5 runs only in this series.
Roston Chase WI | all
The Windies star cricketer has made 7 and 32 runs in the first and second matches. However, Chase has been one of the standout performers from the host camp and might pose a big threat to the Bangla Tigers in this game. In addition, his form with the ball can give you high returns.
Liton Das BAN | wk
The Bangladeshi-stand-in-skipper has failed to mark his impact in the first and second matches but guided the side to win the series under his leadership. This wicket-keeper batter might step up in the final game to mark a cleansweep against the home team.
