Matthew Forde struck thrice on international debut and Keacy Carty hit a half-century as the West Indies registered a four-wicket win in the rain-affected third and final game at the Kensington Oval on Saturday to clinch their first ODI series victory over England (2-1) since 2007.

Chasing a revised target of 188 in 34 overs (DLS method), the Windies got off to a perfect start as Carty (50) combined with Alick Athanaze (45) for a 76-run second-wicket partnership, but spinner Will Jacks (3/22) tore through their middle order, reducing them to 135/6 in the 26th over.

Romario Shepherd, dropped on 18, then hit a crucial knock of 41 to push the Windies over the finish line with 14 balls to spare.

Brief scores: England 206/9 in 40 ovs (B. Duckett 71; M. Forde 3/29). West Indies 191/6 in 31.4 ovs (K. Carty 50; W. Jacks 3/22). West Indies won by 4 wickets.
