The West Indies Women beat England Women by four wickets in their opening Twenty20 International in Saint Kitts to make it three wins out of four over the world champions.

Having already sealed the One-Day International series 2-1, the home side overcame England's score of 112 with a ball to spare, overcoming an injury to wicket-keeper and captain Merissa Aguillera to get home.

England's score was propped up by Charlotte Edwards, who made 34 while Holly Colvin hit 17 to help England recover from 68 for six to post a competitive score after the match was held up for three hours due to rain.

The West Indies lost two early wickets but a partnership of 69 between Pamela Lavine (26) and Cordel Jack (39) put the West Indies in a strong position and although England hit back to take the match down to the wire, Shanel Daley held her nerve to hit the winning runs.
