West Indies will be taking on England in St. Lucia at the Darren Sammy National Stadium in the third Test of the three-match series in hopes of whitewashing the visitors. Fast bowler Shannon Gabriel has said that the team is committed to whitewash the England team.

The West Indies defeated England by more than 300 runs in Barbados and by 10 wickets in Antigua. Gabriel said, “This series win a great achievement for us. Thinking back about last year when we lost 0-2 in Bangladesh, we were all hurting. Thankfully, we stuck together and we came out and showcased our talents. And to show some improvement. This series win has been great and I’m really pleased to be part of it.”

“We have great confidence and we are definitely looking to make it 3-0. We’re not just going for the win, we’re also playing for the people of the Caribbean and we are also playing for points to move up the Test rankings,” added the pacer.

Gabriel recorded his best Test figures at this same ground when he picked 13-121 against Sri Lanka last year, which were the third best match figures ever recorded in West Indies cricket history.

Talking about the ground, Gabriel said, “This ground has been good to me I’ve had some good times on this ground where I bowled well and got wickets. I suits my style of fast bowling and I did well last year when we played against Sri Lanka. It’s a fast pitch with some bounce, so I’m expecting the same kind of pitch here again this year.”
