West Indies avoided a clean sweep by beating Afghanistan by 15 runs in the third T20I in Dubai, ending the series on a positive note.
Defending 151, West Indies were under pressure after a strong opening stand from Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran. The game turned dramatically in the 19th over when Shamar Springer claimed a sensational hat-trick, removing Gurbaz, Rashid Khan and Shahidullah. Ramon Simmonds then held his nerve in the final over as Afghanistan finished on 136 for 8.
Afghanistan won the series 2–1, while West Indies gained confidence ahead of their South Africa tour.
