After a leisurely morning exploring the island as you wish, we will transfer to the famous Kensington Oval for the third ODI. The coach will transfer us back to the hotel after the game, which will likely finish in the evening.

DAYS AT LEISURE
Enjoy two days at leisure in Barbados. Some may choose to relax and make the most of the white sandy beaches, while others may prefer to explore the island a little more. Previous Howzat travellers have enjoyed a taste of history at the Mount Gay Rum distillery.
In the evenings, experience the local nightlife on the St. Lawrence Gap. 'The Gap' is famous for the restaurants and bars that line the street - serving rum punch and macaroni pie. On Friday night, there is the famous Fish Fry at Oistins which is hugely popular among locals and visitors alike and is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the famous Bajan cuisine and some local music.

Day 6
1st T20
Enjoy your morning at leisure before jumping on-board the transfer to the stadium for the first T20 of five. The coach will transfer us back to the hotel after the game, which will likely finish in the evening.
Both teams will likely alter their sides today, bringing in specialist T20 players who have honed their skills in the franchise leagues across the world. West Indies set the T20 innings record at the Kensington Oval two years ago, amassing 224/5 at a run rate of 11.2 - so a high-scoring game could be on the cards.
