Jordan stars in narrow England win: 3rd T20 (Barbados)

Chris Jordan inspired England to a five-run win over West Indies in their final match before the World Twenty20.

West Indies blasted themselves to the brink of a thrilling victory as Darren Sammy launched a late assault at what became 17 needed from the last over. Earlier, Jordan hit 27 not out in 9 balls to take the total to 165-5 after a middle-order stumble.

England 165 for 6 (Lumb 63, Hales 38, Jordan 27*) beat West Indies 160 for 7 (Simmons 69, Ramdin 33, Jordan 3-39) by five runs.
