It was only a few days ago that New Zealand's former captain Brendon McCullum had asked the team to work out their best XI for the next year's World Cup. While several youngsters are being tried out in the ongoing series against West Indies to find an answer to that, in their two successive victories against the reigning champions, they would have realised the perks of playing with gay abandon - much like they had done successfully during McCullum's reign as captain. It has helped that the West Indian bowlers haven't had a comeback under the pressure of the aggressive onslaught of the New Zealand batters. In what is nearly a first-choice attack for the visitors, they have erred in lengths, bowled in the hitting arcs and conceded more extras than they would've liked, apart from being pretty abysmal in the field. In many ways, they have left their batters with too much to compensate. While the loss in Auckland could be brought down to one phase of poor play by the top order against Lockie Ferguson, in Mount Maunganui, they were always playing the catch-up given the mammoth target of 239 they were chasing before eventually falling 72 runs short. It's not for any bad reason that West Indies find themselves placed 10th on the points table despite boasting a collection of players that would scare any opposition in T20 cricket. As a team, even with a fairly large number of first-choice options, they haven't clicked. With the series in the pocket, New Zealand would find themselves in a freer situation as they look to further their T20 experiments in the final game of the series, with the sides playing on successive days. And in that, for West Indies, even with the series already lost, there is an opportunity to fine-tune their rusty form - especially with the bowling attack awry and the promising left-hand duo of Shimron Hetmyer and Nicholas Pooran yet to impose themselves. What to expect: Even though it will be an evening game, another run-fest can be expected at the Bay Oval, much like it played out on Sunday. And if West Indies aren't under the kind of pressure they were in the second T20I, maybe their batsmen could produce even higher scores. Scattered showers are, however, expected. When: Monday, November 30, 2020, 7:00 pm local time; 11:30 am IST Where: New Zealand vs West Indies, Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui
