England won the toss and decided to field against West Indies in the third Twenty20 International on Wednesday at Kensington Oval here.

The Windies made one change, replacing Odean Smith with Rovman Powell, but England have made five changes, including three T20I newcomers.

Phil Salt, George Garton, Harry Brook, Liam Livingstone, and Tymal Mills were brought in to replace regular captain Eoin Morgan, Sam Billings, Chris Jordan, Liam Dawson, and Saqib Mahmood.

Moeen Ali will lead the side in the absence of Morgan, who has injury concerns.

The five-match series is level at 1-1 after West Indies comfortably won the low-scoring first T20I by nine wickets on Saturday at the same venue, where England won the second T20I by one run the following day.

Teams:

West Indies:  Shai Hope (wicketkeeper), Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran, Rovman Powell, Darren Bravo, Kieron Pollard (captain), Jason Holder, Fabian Allen, Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein, Sheldon Cottrell.

England: Jason Roy, Tom Banton (wicketkeeper), James Vince, Moeen Ali (captain), Liam Livingstone, Harry Brook, Phil Salt, George Garton, Adil Rashid, Tymal Mills, Reece Topley.

Umpires: Gregory Brathwaite, Leslie Reifer Jr.

TV umpire: Nigel Duguid.
