West Indies and South Africa will lock horns in the third and final T20I of the series at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad. The home team has already sealed the deal after winning the first two games and now will be aiming for a whitewash against the Proteas. On the other hand, the South African team will be looking leave the island nation with at least one win in the shortest format of international cricket. 

The West Indian top-order has done a more than decent job in the series so far. The team management will hope that they continue their good work laying a strong foundation. The pacers have also read the wicket better than the opposition and have bowled as per the demands of the track. 

On the other hand, the South African team has struggled as a team in both the games. While, in one match, their batting lacked resilience, in the other one the bowlers failed to show the required fighting spirit. However, they are trying out their future generation in this series and will be looking forward to a gutsy show by the youngsters or the new blood of the team.

Ahead of the final T20I, let us see how the wicket at the Brian Lara Stadium might behave.

Brian Lara Stadium Tarouba Trinidad Pitch Report

In general the wicket at the Brian Lara Stadium favours the bowlers. The batters struggle to score runs freely here. While the pacers get a bit of help from the track with the new ball, the spinners have also influenced the game towards the later stages. 

However, in this series we have seen 170 plus totals on three out of four occasions. This shows that to some extent the batters have been served better on this pitch in this series. We can expect the same in this game too. 

The track will be a sporty one, where the fasetr bowlers will get a bit help of the track with the new ball and the spinners will come into the game towards the later stages. However, the batters who can spend some time in the middle will be able to score big.
