West Indies vs England Betting Tips

England to score over 27.5 runs before 1st dismissal (1.85 @Parimatch)

England has a pretty prolific batting order in the current series. They have several batting options and stirred things in their favour in the previous fixture to win it. Their opening line-up featured Phil Salt and Will Jacks who have posted good opening partnerships in the ODI series. Jos Buttler jumped in the opening position and registered ecstatic opening partnerships alongside Salt in the series. The pair scored 77, 9, 115 & 117 runs before their first dismissal in the last four T20Is. Salt and Buttler average at 35.35 & 35.13 respectively in their T20I career. In the last game, Buttler scored 55 whereas Salt carried out innings of 119 runs. The batters fit the role perfectly and will most likely carry out an expensive opening partnership in the next game.

West Indies vs England Toss Prediction

The pitch at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy in Tarouba has proven to be a tough nut to crack for batters. The 34 Caribbean Premier League (CPL) matches clearly reflect the slow nature of the pitch, with an average first innings score of 141 runs. Notably, no match at the ground witnessed the target surpassing the 190-run mark. However, spinners will have a great advantage in the game and will receive immense help from the track. Captain winning the toss is likely to bat first keeping the past records in mind.

Weather Report

The temperature in Trinidad will peak at 30 degree Celsius. However, there is a high chance of rain on the day of the game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

England

The sides have clashed 28 times in the T20Is. West Indies have won 16 games whereas England managed to win 12 games. West Indies have dominated over England in the format but England had an appropriate answer to the two losses in the series initially. They batted incredibly in the last two T20Is and managed to win those games. England looks synchronised now and are doing very well, especially with their batters. Looking at the current momentum, England has a better chance at winning the next game with a lot of confidence from their last two outings.
