WEST INDIES TEAM NEWS
After they had memorably defeated Australia in their last Test Match, there were expectations that West Indies may challenge England at home in this series but they were really awful at Lord’s and appeared woefully under-prepared and lacked match practice.
WEST INDIES Predicted Playing 11
Kraigg Brathwaite (c), Mikyle Louis, Kirk McKenzie, Alick Athanaze, Kavem Hodge, Jason Holder, Joshua Da Silva (wk), Alzarri Joseph, Gudakesh Motie, Shamar Joseph, Jayden Seales
England vs West Indies Prediction:
Though Stuart Broad and James Anderson have lately lost England’s bowling attack in consecutive home tests, Gus Atkinson’s performance indicated that there is plenty of potential ready to move up. We are expecting Mark Wood to seize his chance in this game as well, and West Indies will find difficulty with the bat. It would be surprising, though, if the visitors did not show any progress, given our expected quite significant victory margin. Still, our estimate is for another England victory.
