West Indies vs England Betting Tips
West Indies to have a better opening partnership than England (1.92 @Parimatch)
England and West Indies head into this series after disappointing outings for both sides in ODIs prior to this three game series. England is struggling in their bowling department with too many options to bowl. It was evident in the first ODI of this series where West Indies led an opening partnership of 118 runs in the game. Brandon King and Evin Lewis from West Indies were impeccable with the bat. Whereas England scored 39 runs before their first dismissal. Both the openers dismissed out under the score of 20 runs in the game. That said, West Indies will feel confident after their last win and will look to bat well in the next game.
Match Prediction Best Odds
West Indies vs England Toss Prediction
The stadium is known for its batting-friendly pitch, offering good pace and bounce that favours stroke play and high scores early on. The ball comes onto the bat well, encouraging aggressive batting. As the match progresses, the pitch can wear down and aid spinners in the later stages. Given these conditions, teams winning the toss may find it advantageous to bowl first to exploit early batting conditions and take advantage of spin as the pitch deteriorates.
Weather Report
The weather will be sunny. The temperature will range between 25 and 30. The wind will be flowing from the west at 10-15 km/h.
