TEAMS PREVIEW
West Indies Preview
Rovman Powellβs team finally had something to cheer about in the last game. The side that has been struggling with its form in this format got its acts right. Powell would like to build on this form and end the series with a 2-3 loss.

England Preview
Jos Buttler will be upset with his teamβs bowling performance in the last game. They had 218 runs on the board but failed to defend it with poor bowling. After winning the first three games, they already have the series in the bag. Buttler will expect his players to approach this game clinically and end the series 4-1.Β Β
Philip Salt and Will Jacks delivered a good start in the last game, and the team expects a similar show. Jos Buttler will look to play aggressively in the middle order and add runs with Jacob Bethell and Liam Livingstone. Curran, Jamie Overton, and Dan Mousley are good hitters, and the team expects them to do well.Β
Weather Conditions
We expect cloudy skies over St Lucia and rain interruptions during the game. It will be a good surface to bat on, and we have seen batsmen play their strokes easily. However, overcast conditions assist the fast bowlers. The average first-innings score in the last two years has been 170 runs. The team batting first shall look to have 190 runs on the board.
WI vs ENG Pitch Report
Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia, is a batsmen-friendly ground in ideal conditions. The shorter boundaries allow batters to free their arms. Fast bowlers donβt get much movement unless it is in overcast conditions, and spinners must bowl in the right areas to do well here.
Toss: To Bat
The team batting first has won the game four times in the last six games. The wicket slows down in the second half when batting conditions become difficult. The team winning the toss would like to use the wicket to their advantage by batting first.
