MATCH: West Indies vs England
DATE: Dec 13, 2023
TIME: 03:30 IST / 2:00 GMT

VENUE: Kensington Oval – Bridgetown, Barbados

TOURNAMENT: West Indies vs England

The senior players of England in the form of Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, and Tymal Mills among a couple of others are all set to make their comeback in the three-match T20I series against West Indies. After losing the ODI series 2-1, the Jos Buttler-led side has a point to prove, especially with the T20 World Cup just around the corner. They will have to find their rhythm first and then work on the composition that will suit best in the shortest format.

When it comes to the home team, Andre Russell is all set to make his comeback after more than two years. West Indies’ middle order comprising Nicholas Pooran, Rovman Powell, Shimron Hetmyer, and Russell looks destructive as England bowlers may have a tough time in the middle. However, consistency will be key for the side as they look to bring back the glory days.

Probable Best Performers from WI vs ENG

Probable Best Batter: Jos Buttler

England skipper Jos Buttler will be extremely vital for the team in the three-match series. He will be back at his preferred opening position, where he has scored tons of runs. He is a destructive white-ball batter and hence, the focus will be on him and his approach in the shortest format.

Probable Best Bowler: Moeen Ali

As the surface will assist the spinners, veteran Moeen Ali can prove to be dangerous. He can prove to be economical as well and build pressure, which the other spinners like Adil Rashid and Liam Livingstone can capitalize on.
