Here’s the predicted XI for West Indies against England:
Top Order:
The top order will comprise of players like Shai Hope, Brandon King, and Evin Lewis, who had a great outing in the previous game against Sri Lanka. Lewis went on to hit a century, helping West Indies clinch victory. Their game plan for the upcoming matches will be the same. Taking out runs in the first powerplay is extremely important, and if the top-order batters give a good start, things will fall into place.
Middle Order:
Sherfane Rutherford, Keacy Carty, Jewel Andrew, and Roston Chase are the middle-order batters for the West Indies. Rutherford was an excellent player throughout the previous series; the same will be expected from him in the upcoming series. Moreover, the other batters have to step up and carry the innings forward.
Bowlers:
Matthew Forde, Gudakesh Motie, Alzarri Joseph, and Jayden Seales handle the bowling unit. There has been quite a lot of improvement in the last game. These are some talented bowlers on the team, and they know their game really well. Against England, they will have to pull up their socks and give their best in order to win the series.
