After home wins in Chester-le-Street and Bristol, the three-match T20I series between England and West Indies comes to a close on the south coast at the Rose Bowl on Tuesday evening.
Sunday's second T20I saw England triumph in the westcountry, beating the Men in Maroon by four wickets in a quirky contest which now holds the record for the highest number of runs in a T20I without any batter making a half-century!
West Indies will travel back to Ireland after this game to finish this tour with three further T20Is but leaving England without a victory is something which Shai Hope's side will be determined not to happen.
And this contest at Hampshire's home ground could be the game to finally record a win as England have been beaten in each of the last three T20Is at the Rose Bowl.
There was one change to the England XI from the opening game of the series in the north east as left-arm pacer Luke Wood made a return to international cricket after nearly a two year absence and took the place of Matthew Potts who debuted in the format in Chester-le-Street.
And it would be a huge surprise to see Wood lose his place for this game after he took a wicket with the first ball of the game in Bristol and finished with figures of 2/25 on his way to the Player of the Match Award.
Adil Rashid picked up another wicket in Sunday's game but also conceded 31 runs from one over, the second highest number ever leaked by an English player in a T20I, and he needs only two dismissals to go t-top as his country's top wicket taker at the Rose Bowl in this format.
With the bat, England continue to go for their shots throughout the innings and Jos Buttler will be looking to finish as their highest run scorer for the third game in a row.

West Indies posted 196/6 in the first innings of the game in Bristol but it was still not enough to end their losing streak on the British Isles and they must now win in Southampton or will leave the UK with six successive defeats!
If they are to get a victory to end this leg of the tour, it might be worth pushing the likes of Rovman Powell, Romario Shepherd and Jason Holder, all who batted aggressively at the end the innings, up the order with Sherfane Rutherford who is out of form dropping down.
Captain Shai Hope top scored in Bristol and opener Johnson Charles comes into this game after an impressive 47 runs from 39 balls.
With the ball, Alzarri Joseph continues to lead the attack and always looks like picking up a wicket. Akeal Hosein and Jason Holder also impressed with economy rates under 9.00 in Bristol and will look to build pressure.

The weather forecast is for humid conditions throughout Tuesday afternoon and evening with a chance of rain at the toss and during the opening overs. The temperature will be over 20 degrees for the majority of the game.

Minimal TurnThe Rose Bowl is an excellent venue for international cricket and with only two team totals of 200+ across 12 T20Is, there is usually an excellent battle between bat and ball. A par total for the team batting first will be around 185-190.
Each of the last three T20Is at the Rose Bowl have been won by the teams batting first and so we expect both captains to go out for the toss intending to bat first in this game.
This fixture brings the curtain down on West Indies' white ball tour of England and it has been a pretty one-sided set of contests so far. Our prediction is for West Indies to be competitive but for England to once again get the victory to take another series 3-0.
