Jordan steers England to victory on 'home' ground

England resisted a late West Indies surge and held on for a consolation five-run victory in the third and final Twenty20 international at Kensington Oval.
Despite surrendering the series to the home side 2-1, yesterday's match was a personal triumph for Chris Jordan.
The Barbados-born all-rounder smashed Dwayne Bravo for four sixes off the final over of the England innings to lift his team to 165 for six after they had lost six wickets for 40 runs following an opening stand of 98 between Michael Lumb (63) and Alex Hales (38).
He then claimed three for 39 and took an outstanding catch on the boundary to dismiss Bravo, a magnificent effort that was enough to earn him the man of the match award in very familiar surroundings as West Indies were restricted to 160 for seven.

"I'm just happy to have made the most of the opportunity," said Jordan in reflecting on his performance.
"I just wanted to get into the game, and did that with the bat, then it rolled over into my bowling."
West Indies were indebted to Lendl Simmons (69) and Denesh Ramdin (33) in getting them back into the match after they had slumped to 67 for five in pursuit of that target of 166.
Jade Dernbach started the rout with the wicket of Dwayne Smith off the first ball of the innings while Jordan removed Johnson Charles and Marlon Samuels.
