India leave Miami with two wins in two matches, and a 4-1 victory overall in the series. The first three matches were held in West Indies.
India scored 7-188 on Sunday after choosing to bat first before skittling West Indies for 100 in 15.4 overs. Only Shimron Hetmyer (56 runs off 35 balls) provided any resistance before falling to Ravi Bishnoi, who took 4-16 runs in 2.4 overs.
Hetmyer scored his fastest T20 international half-century in 28 balls, one delivery quicker than his previous best.
Axar Patel had 3-15 in three overs and Kuldeep Yadav 3-12 in four.
India earlier reached 1-95 after 10 overs with opener Shreyas Iyer top-scoring with a 40-ball 64, which included eight fours and two sixes, before he was caught and bowled by Jason Holder. Deepak Hooda hit 38 off 25.
Odean Smith took 3-33 in four overs, damaging India's middle order with fast-medium pace. Obed McCoy (0-27 off two overs) was the most expensive bowler for West Indies.
India and West Indies both made four changes from Saturday's game, which India won by 59 runs to clinch the series. India rested captain Rohit Sharma with Hardik Pandya taking his place, who praised the atmosphere at Central Broward Park.
"We don't feel we are playing in Miami but in some Indian city," Hardik told cricinfo.com.
"Fantastic to come abroad and get this support."
