00:00West Indies cricketer Janelia Glassgoes hoping the ladies in Maroon can avoid a whitewash
00:04when they face England in the third and final ODI on Saturday.
00:08The game takes place in Taunton, with the West Indies having been swept 3-0 in the T20 series
00:13and trailing the ODIs 2-0.
00:15It's very windy across the ground.
00:18Just finished training session, it's a flat wicket, but I mean, some good pace it will come on
00:22and this is something we all like.
00:25I think most of us love the pace and coming on in the starting, I think we'll have a good start
00:31whether we bat our goal first.
00:33We have played five games already, so I don't think it should be matter between myself
00:37or the rest of the girls whether we bat our goal.
00:40We just have to come prepared and end on a high note.
00:43Glasgow made 44 from 24 balls in the last game, which the Windies lost in Leicester.
00:48And how would the 21-year-old describe that innings?
00:51I think I was ready from the night before.
00:53I'm always in my grooving, you know, dancing all the morning and so, you know, give God
00:59all the praise and thanks.
01:00And when I get to this ground, I was told that I was batting at number six and I was
01:05even ready from the get-go.
01:07So it was just about going out there and execute.
01:09I think I have planned and be ready for what is coming my way.
01:13So I think I just had to go out there and execute and I think I did that really well.
01:18The West Indies lost that match by 143 runs to surrender the series.
01:22Skipper Haley Matthews missed the game with injury, while Kiana Joseph had the flu.
01:27Despite the heavy defeat, Glasgow says it was a good effort from the visitors.
01:31I think we still put up a good fight with the young girls.
01:35Myself and really Anna Grimma went out there and played fearless cricket.
01:38I think we also made the runs without those girls.
01:44Same amount of runs, 230-something, 40-something.
01:48When these girls are here, we made the same runs and without them we still make that run.
01:52So I think that was a good fight between us as a young group without them.
01:57And I must say kudos to us, even though the game did not went our way.
02:01But I am still happy with the results.
02:04Matthews has also been ruled out of the final ODI with a left shoulder injury
02:07that was aggravated by a fall in the field during the opening ODI in Derby.
02:12And I want to keep exploring.
02:14Very, very quickly.
02:15Such a dangerous player.
