That's all from our coverage from the fourth T20I. Ninaad Dixit here signing off on behalf of Anirudh Modi and our scorer Ashok Dayma. Stay safe and take care!
Moeen Ali: "We batted really well at the top and finished well. We bowled well with Rashid and Topley doing exceedingly well. We want the bowlers to be under pressure and learn from the other games. I actually fell like not being able to hit the ball but then couple of shots put the momentum in place. Hopefully I can go well tomorrow again. We want to use the spinners pretty early in the innings and a left hander on the crease was helpful. I would have bowled myself or Livingstone anyway. Adil is a brilliant bowler and definitely the best bowler for us. Rashid's difficult to pick and a wicket taking bowler so we had to get Powell out and he did it for us which was a massive wicket. The death bowling was fantastic and they would take confidence ahead from that."
Moeen Ali is the player of the match.
Kieron Pollard: "In the backend of the innings is when we let it slip in the first half. It just takes you a couple of overs to get back in the game and that's where they scored a good 20 runs and took the game away from us. Adil Rashid has bowled exceptionally well using his experience and variations as well. Both sides are gonna be equal tomorrow so it's gonna be a good game."
This was a match where England dominated and West Indies threatened in patches. A match that can safely be called as The Moeen Ali Show. Ali was the star with both bat and ball, giving a captain's performance to lead by example. His all round showing ensure England tie the 5 match T20i series 2-2, heading into the finale tomorrow.

After losing a wicket early, Roy and Vince recovered to lay a platform for the middle order to come and dominate. After the drink's break the Windies delivered a double blow to get two new batters at the crease. After soaking up early pressure, Ali shifted gears. He smacked Holder for 28 runs in the 18th over to help England post 193 runs on the board.

The Windies chase started brightly. Kyle Mayers on his first outing as an opener for the Caribbean side, gave them a flying start. However, things took a turn when spin came out. Ali and Rashid bowled in tandem in the middle overs, giving away just 20 runs and picking up 4 wickets to put the match in England's control. Jason Holder's cameo was threatening but low run scoring from the other end meant the scoreboard pressure got to him. After his wickets, it was a cakewalk for England's bowlers who ensured England secured victory by 34 runs!
