Time for the Post-match Presentation!
Ben Duckett has been named as the 'Player of the Match'.
Ben Duckett (POTM): "It was a great pitch to bat on. You could see that right through the evening. The ball didn't do much up top, we looked to put pressure on right from the start. Jamie took down the seamers, which made my job easier.
(On partnership with Jamie Smith) It is really good, you know. We haven't batted much in Test cricket. Keep things simple. He hits the ball in a completely different area to me. So far, so good. I try to keep things simple, as people know. You need a couple of expansive and innovative strokes in T20s. I try to stick to my strengths. Thank you!"

Jos Buttler has been named as the 'Player of the Series'.
Jos Buttler (Player of the Series): "(On how he enjoyed the matches vs WI) Really enjoyed it. Was a great ODI series and then this T20I series. (How he keeps being consistent) Just enjoying the game and always looking to find ways to improve. The new No.3 batter in T20Is, so that gives motivation as well.
(Adjusting to No.3) Just look at the scoreboard and try to play accordingly. (About keeping to England's spinners) Yeah, really enjoyed keeping to them. Dilly (Adil Rashid) keeps getting better and better. The spinners have done well in all kinds of conditions as well."

Shai Hope (West Indies Captain): "Just think the grasping those crucial moments in the game. Maybe with the bat or ball or even on the field. Feel that we haven't had a complete team game. We have to find ways, just keep chipping away with as few dot balls as possible.
Yes and no are both my answers for the batting performance. At the end of the day, you have to find ways to score and take wickets. We need to find ways to rotate the strike when things get difficult in the middle. As a West Indies batting group, you need to be, we need to find our way on how we are going to score. Keep dot balls down as much as possible. If we can marry the two together and keep scoring consistently, we marry power and finesse.
We need to improve everywhere. We will be back in the Caribbean after the Ireland series. A quick turnaround for us. Three more games, we need to do well and take something back to the Caribbean."

Harry Brook (England Captain): "Very pleased with the effort. We played exceptional cricket throughout. To top off the entire series, what we did tonight was pleasing. (On rotating the bowlers) Having Daws (Liam Dawson) and Rash (Adil Rashid) helps. Woody (Luke Wood) bowled well, Pottsy (Matthew Potts) the other night.
Like the depth in the line-up, gives the lads at the top a free hand to go out and get us off to quick starts. (Preparing for the Tests) I'll be batting a lot, getting Tres (Marcus Trescothick) to throw plenty of balls."
