West Indies have done their job brilliantly against the United Arab Emirates. They secured the three-match ODI series by winning the first two games. Last night, the Caribbean completed the clean sweep against the UAE as they defeated the host by four wickets. Toss: Mohammad Waseem, the captain of the UAE, won the toss and decided to bat first at Sharjah Cricket Ground.

Batting innings of the UAE

After winning the toss, the UAE started their batting innings with Lovepreet Bajwa and the skipper Mohammad Waseem. In the previous two games, the UAE couldn't get a good start. That was why they tried to start aggressively in the third game. Unfortunately, the UAE failed again to make a good partnership on the opening wicket. Opener Lovepreet Bajwa lost his wicket in the 2.2 over. Caribbean bowler Keemo Paul picked him up in the 3rd over to draw the first blood. However, the captain's effort was immense. Although they lost an early wicket, skipper Mohammad Waseem didn't stop hitting boundaries. With Vriitya Aravind, the captain made a fantastic partnership of 69 runs, which headed the team towards a good score. But Caribbean bowler Raymond Reifer broke their partnership as he bowled out the captain Waseem in the 11.3 over. Before leaving the crease, Mohammad Waseem scored a very-needed 42 off 34 balls. He also hit five boundaries and two over boundaries. On the other hand, Vriitya Aravind kept accelerating the scoreboard. He made another partnership of 55 runs with Rameez Shahzad. Vriitya Aravind scored the highest 70 runs for the UAE, hitting eight boundaries and an over boundary. Meanwhile, Rameez Shahzad added 27 runs to the scoreboard. Relying on them, the UAE were looking good. It seemed they could score a decent run. But the disaster started for the UAE when they lost Vriitya Aravind and Rameez. After these two batters, three batters had gone duck, and the other failed to cross 10 runs. Kevin Sinclair picked up four wickets of the UAE alone. As a result, The UAE became all-out in 184 runs only.

Batting innings of West Indies

Chasing the small target, West Indies also lost an early wicket. Opener Johnson Charles departed the crease after scoring only three runs. However, Alick Athanaze and Sharmarh Brooks tackled the situation brilliantly. Their partnership of 66 runs moved West Indies closer to the target. Alick Athanaze scored the highest 65 runs for the Caribbean, while Sharmarh Brooks added 39 runs. Keacy Carty scored 20 before losing his wicket to Meiyappan. But captain Roston Chase remained not out in 27 runs to chase the target. Therefore, West Indies won the third game by four wickets and completed the clean sweep against the UAE.
