McBrine took his total of wickets in the three matches to 10 as the West Indies were all out for 212 in 44.4 overs. He then showed off his all-round talents by hitting a top score of 59 off 100 balls with six boundaries and a six. Harry Tector also played his part in what was Ireland’s first away ODI series triumph against a fellow Test nation.
The 24-year-old finished with 52, his third successive half-century and seventh in his last 10 matches.
When McBrine departed in the 31st over, the 28-year-old all-rounder had taken Ireland to 152-3, helping his team recover from losing opener William Porterfield to the first ball of the innings to Alzarri Joseph. McBrine’s second career half-century ended with a lazy swipe to Odean Smith which was gobbled up by Shai Hope behind the stumps.
