West Indies completed a 3-0 series win over Bangladesh after a last over victory in the final one-day international in Grenada on Wednesday.

Chasing a total of 119 after Bangladesh had made 118 for seven from their 25 overs, Devon Smith guided West Indies to victory with five balls and seven wickets to spare.

Smith was unbeaten on 39, while useful contributions also came from Dwayne Smith (23) and Shivnarine Chanderpaul (24).
