BRIDGETOWN – Australia capped a dominant T20I series against the West Indies with a commanding 5–0 whitewash, delivering a resounding victory in the final match to maintain their unbeaten streak.
After winning the first four games, the visiting Australians carried momentum into the decider at Kensington Oval, securing a convincing win that showcased their depth in both batting and bowling. The series featured standout performances from key players such as Travis Head, Glenn Maxwell, and Josh Hazlewood, who consistently led the charge.
Australia’s bowling attack proved especially effective, regularly dismantling the West Indies middle order and limiting explosive powerplay scoring. The hosts struggled to build substantial partnerships, leaving their chase in disarray against disciplined pace and spin. Despite efforts from Nicholas Pooran and Shimron Hetmyer, the West Indies could not recover from early setbacks.
For Australia, the clean sweep underlines their dominance in the shortest format and elevates confidence ahead of upcoming global tournaments. The result also reinforces their status as one of the most formidable sides in T20 cricket.
For the West Indies, the whitewash sparks concern and calls for reflection. Analysts have warned of deep structural issues, including fragile middle-order batting, inconsistent bowling attack, and a lack of performance under pressure. Fans and cricketing authorities alike are urging reforms to rebuild the team’s competitiveness in home conditions.
