By Brandon Corlette in Barbados

Fully vaccinated fans are relishing the once in a lifetime experience at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown Barbados in the fiva-match T20I series between West Indies and England. The high-level of competitive cricket that has been played after three matches in the series, with West Indies leading 2-1, adds more joy to the party atmosphere at the Oval.

The venue in Bridgetown, is unique in nature, with the party stand filled with beach sand, a pool, entertainment bars and stage. This took to the stands and spoke to some fans, who shared their sentiments on the atmosphere at the Oval, and some gave their series prediction. While speaking to a Guyanese, he said: “I like Jason Holder, he is the boss. The complete team good, all of them perfect. West Indies will win the series, we just give them a chance to let them feel happy. We are the bosses for everything because it is our they are in.”

Fans who came all the way from England to witness the action, were relishing the party stand, which is certainly a great spectacle.”I think England tend to grow in the series, so I am confident that England will win the series. First time I am in Barbados, and it is exciting.”

Another Englishman told this publication that England will win this series 3-2. He said England will wobble and said Barbados is a great place. “That is why are here, for the excitement. Close to the ground where I can hopefully catch the ball. The sun, the beach, it is just fantastic in Barbados.”

Another first timer in Barbados said: “I love it, it is an incredible island. Love the accent, people are friendly and helpful. I love the accent. We were little worried to get out here and get white-washed so it should be a good series. You got a good exciting team and we have an unpredictable team.”

The fourth T20I is set for January 29 at the same venue from 16:00h Eastern Caribbean time.
