England and West Indies have been two of the most impressive teams of World Cup 2019. Both the teams have managed to leave a mark in the mega-event.
England, considered as tournament-favourites have started off their World Cup campaign with two wins and a loss in their first three matches. England bounced back after suffering a defeat against Pakistan and Jofra Archer will be leading their bowling attack against Windies.
England will have an upper hand due to the home conditions and their record at the venue. The match will be played at Hampshire Bowl, where England have won their last four ODIs. The English side will rely on their batting line-up comprising Eoin Morgan, Jason Roy, Joe Root and Jos Buttler, who have been in scintillating form lately.
On the other hand, West Indies will hope that their bowling attack will scalp some early wickets. The trio of Sheldon Cottrell, Jason Holder and Oshane Thomas are expected to lead the Windies bowling attack. West Indies has already shown its potential by thrashing Pakistan by seven wickets in the tournament.
The weather has been terrible over the last week but it finally looks like we will get some cricket to watch in this match. Considering the recent form and home conditions, England will walk into the match as favourites.
