England captain Eoin Morgan, speaking at the toss: "We'd have done exactly the same. It's the first wicket that's been a bit tacky so it might be challenging up front but should flatten down after 10 to 15 overs.
"It's been quite a hectic tour with a lot of games over a short amount of time. Liam Plunkett has a niggle but Tom Curran played very well in the second ODI and hopefully he can produce another performance like that.
"The wind is a huge factor here - it's like having an extra fielder on one side but then you need an extra fielder on the other side. We'll have to be smart here today.
"Both side have played really good cricket in this series - last time it made for a crazy game of cricket. The series is still on the line so we're really looking forward to today."

West Indies captain Jason Holder, speaking at the toss: "It is a fresh wicket. There is a bit of grass cover. There is moisture so we will try to make use of the early conditions.
"It is tough when the ball is flying around. As a bowler you have to back yourself and commit to your skills. Our downfall in the last game was we didn't commit."
Curran in for Plunkettpublished at 14:35 Greenwich Mean Time 2 March 2019

BreakingEoin Morgan calls incorrectly and Jason Holder wants England to set a total.
Will they pass 400 again? Do they need to pass 400 again to win, given the form Chris Gayle is in?

Runs! Seemingly endless runs!
West Indies and England combined for 807 of them in the fourth one-day international on Wednesday.
But in the end it was a bowler - Adil Rashid - who settled it with a remarkable four wickets in five balls to give England a 2-1 lead in this five-match series.
The sides are in St Lucia for the fifth and final ODI today - can England make it 3-1 or will West Indies salvage a series draw?
Either way, you can bet they'll be plenty of big hits. Who'd be a bowler?
