ENG vs WI Team Previews

England

Jamie Smith has adapted to his new role of opening the batting in the ODI setup. Ben Duckett continued his golden run with a fluent 60 in the first ODI and has now scored 386 runs in his last six innings. Joe Root added a calm 57 runs and continues to be England’s glue in the top-order.

Harry Brook, captaining this side, chipped in with a fluent 58 runs. He now has one century and six half-centuries in the short time of 27 ODIs.

Jos Buttler brings experience as a floating batter who knows how to play the situation. His ODI record of over 5000 ODI runs speaks for itself. Jacob Bethell is handy for picking up wickets in the middle overs. His biggest asset against the West Indies in the last match was his punch in the middle overs when he scored a rapid 53-ball 82 runs.

Will Jacks scored a breezy 39 in the first ODI and now moves to more than 500 ODI runs.

Jamie Overton and Brydon Carse form a lively pace duo. Overton, in particular, impressed with a three-wicket haul in the first ODI. Adil Rashid, with over 200 ODI wickets, can spin a web in the middle overs.

The leg-spinner took an ODI four-wicket haul against India before the start of the ICC Champions Trophy. Saqib Mahmood bowled with pace and discipline to take three wickets in the opening ODI.

West Indies

Brandon King has struggled to get moving in recent ODIs. His ODI career of three centuries and seven half-centuries shows that he is still a quality 50-over player. Justin Greaves has recently proven his worth in ODIs with a 50 against Ireland while racking up 129 runs for that three-match series.

Keacy Carty is building more consistency to his ODI game. He hit back-to-back centuries against Ireland, including a career-high 170. Shai Hope remains the premier West Indian ODI batter. He hit 75 against Ireland in the third ODI and crossing the 5500-run mark in ODIs in the same innings.

Amir Jangoo looked sharp on debut earlier this year but needs to continue building his reputation in the middle order. In his first ODI innings, Jewel Andrew was dismissed cheaply. His List A high score of 143 shows that there is something to work with though.

All-rounder Matthew Forde has had his moments in ODI cricket. He is creating his own platform in the format after taking 16 ODI wickets in his last ten ODI bowling innings.

Roston Chase and Gudakesh Motie form the spin attack with a combined ODI wicket tally of 67 wickets. Alzarri Joseph, with 128 ODI wickets, was wayward in the opening game. He should be likely to bounce back after taking five wickets in his past three ODI bowling innings. While Jayden Seales was one of the more expensive bowlers of the opening ODI, he did still manage four wickets.

ENG vs WI Toss Prediction

West Indies won the toss and chose to bowl in the previous ODI. At Sophia Gardens, the past three ODI matches have been won by the team batting second. The overhead conditions and potential dew could also influence both captains to bowl first.

Pitch Report and Weather Conditions

Sophia Gardens should be a batting-friendly venue after the new ball wears off. In the ICC Men’s ODI World Cup in 2019, England hit a score of 386 for six in 50 overs against Bangladesh. The partial cloud coverage will be good for swing early, but dry conditions overall mean the batters won’t lose out.

Weather-wise, the forecast shows mild temperatures and light cloud cover with humidity around 60 percent. Rain is unlikely to interfere, but there is a 15 percent chance.

ENG vs WI: Who Will Win?

England's performance in the first ODI reflected control, intent, and execution. Batters converted starts and bowlers stuck to their plans. The England batting effort was a combined one across the top and middle order. West Indies, though talented, need tighter bowling and more batting resilience to avoid falling behind in the series.

Bet on England to win this match.

ENG vs WI win percentage stands at 84% in favor of ENG.
