In a pulsating finale at Kensington Oval, the West Indies clinched the T10 series 2–1 after defeating Afghanistan by 3 wickets with 1.1 overs to spare in the third and deciding match. Afghanistan delivered an explosive yet uneven batting display, posting 107/7 in 10 overs. The innings revolved around a sensational knock from Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who smashed an unbeaten 41 off 21 balls at a blistering strike rate. Ibrahim Zadran added a valuable 30 off 18, but regular wickets prevented Afghanistan from capitalizing on their early rhythm. The West Indies bowling unit, led by Jason Holder’s outstanding 3/22, tightened the screws in crucial phases, triggering a late-innings collapse that saw Afghanistan lose three wickets for zero runs at the end.

Chasing 108, West Indies batted with fearless intent, spearheaded by a commanding 47 off 23 balls from Brandon King, whose power hitting set the chase ablaze. Cameos from Roston Chase (19 off 7) and Kyle Mayers (10 off 3) kept the momentum alive despite Afghanistan’s bowlers striking back through Karim Janat and Noor Ahmad, each picking up two wickets. With the match hanging in the balance at 103/7, the ever-reliable Jason Holder finished the job with a composed 4 off 1 ball*, earning the Man of the Match award for his all-round brilliance.

With this victory, the West Indies secured a hard-fought 2–1 series win, showcasing superior finishing ability and explosive batting when it mattered most. Afghanistan showed flashes of brilliance but fell short in the decisive moments, allowing the hosts to seal the series in style.
