The hosts were dismissed for 152 off 45.1 overs after captain Kieron Pollard won the toss. Matthew Wade (51 off 52 balls) and Ashton Agar (19 off 33) combined for an unbroken fifth wicket stand of 54 to secure the game three win with 19.3 overs left.

The win ended the West Indies hopes of ending a 26-year drought, last recording an ODI series win over Australia in 1995.

Australia were 27-2 in the eighth over after openers Josh Phillipe and Moses Henriques were each dismissed cheaply, to end low scoring tours for both men. But Carey, who promoted himself to first drop, steadied the ship with 35. He scored well off the sweep before being trapped lbw going for that shot again.
