BIRMINGHAM, England- Keacy Carty stormed into the history books of West Indies Cricket by becoming the joint, sixth highest scorer in history, with a breathtaking 170 against Ireland in the third and final one day international at Clontarf in Dublin.

This innings ensured the West Indies carved out a 197-run win via the Duckworth Lewis Method.

This knock followed a defiant and reassuring 102 in the previous contest, after the West Indies found themselves wobbling on 46 for 2, before posting an imposing 352 for 8 in the second game of the series, which was unfortunately abandoned to due to rain.

Prior to these recent outstanding performances, Carty showed his prowess in 2024 by leading the West Indies in scoring with 560 runs at a staggering average of 62.22 in 11 innings, only bettered by Sri Lankans: Kusal Mendis, Pathum Nissanka and Charith Asalanka.
