ST. JOHN'S, Antigua- West Indies Women won the third and final CG Insurance defeating South Africa Women by 5 wickets at the Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Ground in Antigua. The win also ensured that the West Indies Women draw the three-match series 1-1, after the first match was abandoned due to rain.

West Indies Women's interim captain Anisa Mohammed told CWI Media "We really wanted to win. I told the girls a tie (drawn series) looked better than a loss..... I thought our bowlers bowled really well and the energy was exceptional.  We went wrong in all areas of the game in the second game, today was a new day. We kept the pressure on and knew what we wanted to restrict them for under a hundred which is what we did."

The five CG Insurance ODIs will be played from September 7 to 19, with the first three matches being played at the Coolidge Cricket Ground (CCG) and the last two at the SVRCG.
