Coming into the final quarter of Saturday's third T20I of the series, it looked like England would again come up short, would have already lost the series, but would have put in a decent of themselves.
However, no one bargained for the supreme big hitting from a combination of Liam Livingstone, Phil Salt and Harry Brook to keep the series alive. That trio were inspired by the striking earlier from Jason Holder, Rovman Powell and Nicholas Pooran, not to mention Sherfane Rutherford. Put it this way, there will be some supremely confident batters coming to the wicket in this game.
The series is still alive - will it be West Indies taking a 3-1 lead or can England make it back to back wins to setup a decider?
Captain Rovman Powell could only really shrug his shoulders when asked how his team lost Saturday's game as he preferred to focus on the positives which saw his side post 222/6 after being asked to bat first.
The skipper could be tempted to pick another spin bowler in this T20I after Gudakesh Motie was again the most economical for West Indies. However, with a switch of venue to Tarouba, previous displays from pace bowlers will also come into consideration.
All things considered, if at the start of the series West Indies had been offered the chance to come into the fourth T20I with a 2-1 lead they would certainly have taken it. Although, it remains to be seen just how much self-belief has disappeared from some of their bowlers after the defeat on Saturday.

Just because England were able to chase down a target of 223, with the series on the line, does not mean that all is suddenly fine and dandy in the England white ball setup. But, defeat would have meant the series had got away from them and the performances of Phil Salt and Harry Brook will give the team management and their ers plenty of hope.
Salt will be hoping to build on his maiden T20I century (unbeaten!) with another big contribution in Tarouba whereas Brook will want to continue where he left off in Grenada that saw him 31 not out from 7 balls - a strike-rate of 442.85. Jos Buttler also hit a half-century and more runs from the skipper will give England an excellent chance.
Gus Atkinson and Tymal Mills were both expensive in the third T20I and it would not be a surprise if either were left out to facilitate the return of Rehan Ahmed.

There will be plenty of rain showers at the venue on Tuesday morning and into the afternoon. However, the forecast is for dry conditions during the scheduled hours of the game although the humidity should be high enough to help the swing bowlers.
In spite of being named after one of the greatest batters of all time, the pitch in Tarouba is not always a high scoring one! There will be turn for the spinners and the overhead conditions could well assist the quick bowlers.
In the two previous T20Is at the Brian Lara Stadium, Tarouba, the team batting first has won. Although the toss winning captain has chosen to field first in all three games in the series so far, we expect both skippers to choose to bat first at this venue.
The entertaining win for England on Saturday has kept this series alive and it could well be a pivotal moment with the self-belief now flowing back into the visitors' batters and the West Indies bowlers struggling to know what to do next. Even on a bowler friendly pitch, we expect the batters to be key in this game and we are predicting a closely fought match with England getting another win.
We are backing England to win this match.
