Pitch Report
Captains
England’s most dangerous batter has been none other than Phil Salt due to his explosive stroke play in the first six overs. His record against the West Indies is pretty good and he loves to bat in the Caribbean conditions with the ball coming onto the bat.
One of the most consistent, prolific, and dangerous batters from the West Indies in recent times, Nicholas Pooran has taken run-scoring to new heights. His knock against Afghanistan was a good example as to why teams have to fear him.
It is a pleasing sight to see Jofra Archer back on the field. The right-arm pacer hasn’t missed a beat and is seemingly back to his fierce best with the ball and is also picking regular wickets.
Top
Young Harry Brook is looking to make up for lost time and his crucial knock against Namibia was the difference as England could post a big score on the board and win the game.
West Indian left-arm spinner Akeal Hossein has been one of the best bowlers of the campaign. His ability to take wickets and bowl economically makes him a potent force with the ball.
England skipper Jos Buttler has been dangerous with the bat for a long time in this format of the game. His ability to play shots all across the park using unconventional methods does strike a fear into the opponents.
Budget
The West Indian opener finally struck form with a crucial knock in the game against Afghanistan. The veteran right-handed batter is explosive at the top of the order and can clear the fields with ease.
Veteran batter Jonny Bairstow has been playing crucial roles for his side with the bat in the current campaign. His 31 off 18 balls against Namibia was one of the key reasons why England could win the rain-curtailed match and head into the Super-8’s.
Yet another left-arm spinner who has the ability to bowl economically and also prize out key wickets is Gudakesh Motie. His spells in the middle overs has seen him become a key part of the West Indian plans to stifle the batters from scoring runs.
