Team News:

England

England’s only loss so far was against Pakistan. They have taken advantage of knowing the grounds well and have shown that they are very much in the run for the World Cup trophy.

The four pillars – Roy, Buttler, Root and Bairstow – have taken up the task of ensuring that their bowlers have a good number to defend.

Possible XI:

Liam Plunkett, Eoin Morgan (C), Adil Rashid, Jos Buttler, Jonny Bairstow (wk), Jason Roy, Ben Stokes, Chris Woakes, Joe Root, Mark Wood, Jofra Archer

West Indies

The rain has had a say in their current stand on the points table. They could have defeated South Africa and gained 2 more points quite comfortably but that was not to be. They were at their best against Australia but lost by 15 runs in a very close match.

While West Indies will be counting on a win against Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, they would want to defeat the home team and make certain their chances of advancing further.

Possible XI:

Chris Gayle, Darren Bravo, Andre Russell, Ashley Nurse, Carlos Brathwaite, Jason Holder (C), Sheldon Cottrell, Nicholas Pooran, Shimron Hetmyer, Shai Hope (wk), Oshane Thomas
