ENG vs WI Betting Tips
Joe Root to score Over 37.5 runs
Joe Root has been in brilliant form in this series, scoring a century and a half-century in the two games. He has scored at least 38 runs in 4 of his last 5 outings, including 2 half-centuries and two centuries. We are therefore backing him to play a good knock here.
Alzarri Joseph to pick up Over 1.5 wickets
Alzarri Joseph is the West Indies’ leading wicket-taker on this tour and has picked up at least 2 wickets in both his outings. He has picked up at least 2 wickets in 7 of his last 8 matches. As the pitch here is likely to help the seamers, we are backing Joseph to bowl a good spell.
Having already won the series, England will look to make a clean sweep as it faces the West Indies for the 3rd and final ODI on Tuesday. The two teams will clash at the Kennington Oval in London.

ENG vs WI Team Previews
England
England has been clinical in its performance in this tournament, especially with the bat. They have won both the matches played so far and have already clinched the 3-match series.
While the opening pair of Ben Duckett and Jamie Smith has struggled to get going in both games, the middle order has been pretty solid for the hosts. Joe Root is in magnificent form with the bat as he scored a half-century in the first match and followed it with a brilliant century on Sunday. He was well supported by Harry Brook and Will Jacks in the last match as they chased a huge total with relative ease.
In addition, England will also continue to avail the services of Jos Buttler and Jacob Bethell, who round off the batting line-up. Adil Rashid bowled well in the last match to pick up 4 wickets and continues to lead the spin department. He will be joined by William Jacks and Jacob Bethell.
Saqib Mahmood has been the team’s best seamer in this series and will lead the pace attack along with Brydon Carse and Matthew Potts.
England Expected Playing 11
Ben Duckett, Jamie Smith, Joe Root, Harry Brook (C), Jos Buttler (WK), Jacob Bethell, Will Jacks, Brydon Carse, Matthew Potts, Saqib Mahmood, Adil Rashid

West Indies
The West Indies batted well in the previous match but ultimately lost the game as well as the series. With a 3-match T20 series coming after this, the team will look to win here and build up some winning momentum.
While the visitors have been outplayed in all departments, there will be some positives they will look to take from the previous two games. Keacy Carty scored an excellent century in the last match and looks pretty solid in the number-3 slot. He was joined by Shai Hope and Brandon King, who scored individual half-centuries as well and the top order appears to be in fine form. However, the batting from Jewel Andrew, Shimron Hetmeyer, and Justin Greaves has been rather inconsistent.
Coming to the bowling, Alzarri Joseph has been the visitors’ top bowler with 6 wickets. He will continue leading the attack with the new ball along with Jayden Sealed and Matthew Forde. The team does have two spinners, Gudakesh Motie, and Roston Chase. However, they haven’t had much of an impact on the proceedings.
West Indies Expected Playing 11
Brandon King, Justin Greaves, Keacy Carty, Shai Hope (c & wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Jewel Andrew, Roston Chase, Matthew Forde, Gudakesh Motie, Alzarri Joseph, Jayden Seales
ENG vs WI Toss Prediction
6 of the last 10 matches played here have been won while batting first. In 7 of those matches, the team winning the toss opted to field first but we feel that batting first might be a better option.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The pitch at the Kennington Oval is usually balanced. The average first-inning score here is around 250, but we feel that the team batting first should aim for the 300-run mark to give the bowlers some cushion. The surface has an even covering of grass and the seamers can expect some movement off the seam.
The batsmen will be able to time their shots well as the pace remains true throughout the first half. However, the pitch is likely to slow down a bit during the second half. The weather will remain overcast throughout the day and there is a good chance that the match will be affected by rain.
ENG vs WI: Who Will Win?
We are backing England to win this match. They have been clinical in the previous two games and have a strong batting line-up. Also, England’s bowling unit is well-balanced when compared to that of the West Indies.
Bet on England to win this match.
ENG vs WI win percentage stands at 87% in favor of ENG.
