Team News: England vs West Indies
England:
England had a bumpy warm-up match against India as they lost it but won the second warm-up match against New Zealand. The England cricket team will be missing out on some eminent cricketers like Ben Stokes, Sam Curran, and Jofra Archer. Even after that, the team is balanced. They are expected to show some good cricketing skills by the great batters like Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, and Jos Buttler. Bairstow and Moeen Ali played a good knock in the warm-up match against India by scoring 49 runs in 36 balls and 43 runs in 25 balls respectively. Another highlight from the match against New Zealand was 73 runs in 51 balls by Buttler. After Adil Rashid and Mark Wood's wicket-taking skills in the last match, fans can expect a good bowling attack from the England team.

West Indies:
West Indies has a group of destructive batters and bowlers who failed against Pakistan and Afghanistan in the warm-up matches. The Caribbean team failed to aggregate a good total against Pakistan and in the next match against Afghanistan, they failed to go closer to the chase of 189. The only significant part and highlight of the past two matches is Roston Chase's 54 runs in 58 balls against Afghanistan. The West Indies team is under a bit of pressure as a legendary batter like Chris Gayle failed to execute their best in the IPL and also Andre Russell is suffering from a hamstring injury.
