Pitch Report - The pitch has displayed a darker color and felt hard, suggesting potential assistance for seam bowlers. It could also provide some spin. With cloud cover in place, rain was a possibility later in the day, and dew conditions also play an important role.

England (Playing XI) - Phil Salt(WK), Will Jacks, Jos Buttler(C), Jacob Bethell, Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran, Dan Mousley, Jamie Overton, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid, Saqib Mahmood.

West Indies (Playing XI) - Brandon King, Evin Lewis, Nicholas Pooran(WK), Rovman Powell(C), Roston Chase, Sherfane Rutherford, Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein, Gudakesh Motie, Matthew Forde, Terrance Hinds.

TOSS - ENGLAND HAVE WON THE TOSS AND ELECTED TO FIELD!

With injuries affecting England as Reece Topley is likely to miss out, this matchup promises to be exciting as the Windies will look to level the series. Join us for a thrilling contest as Rovman Powell and his men aim to turn the tide against a confident England side seeking to extend their lead. Stay tuned for the toss and teams.

Windies on the other hand, will be rearing to hit back strong. Their approach in the first game was quite strange and we might see a different one this time. There were positives in their last game but they’ll be eager to put in a complete show here.

Welcome to the second T20I of the five-match series between West Indies and England at the iconic Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados! A rampant Salt 100 helped the visitors take a 1-0 lead over the hosts! Another win will see them inch closer to a series win.

... MATCH DAY ...

We are here at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados, for the final time in this T20I series between England and West Indies before the action shifts to St Lucia for the remaining three T20Is. It was an action-packed series opener, with momentum shifting back and forth until England’s chase turned it into a one-sided show. Chasing 183, Phil Salt was electric at the top, blasting his way through the West Indies bowling attack with a ton. He was accompanied by Jacob Bethell as the duo guided England comfortably to the finish line. The joy of victory, however, was dampened by the sight of Reece Topley limping off after an unfortunate slip in his follow-through, casting doubt on his availability for the rest of the series. If Topley sits out, John Turner or Jofra Archer are likely candidates to step in for the left-arm quick. England will be keen to refine their death bowling, as it still has room for improvement. But the batting unit is on a high, having notched up the highest successful chase in T20Is at the Kensington Oval. On the other hand, the West Indies were rocked early in their innings but showed resilience, with the lower order fighting to put up a competitive score. They will likely keep playing fearless cricket but will be hoping one or two batters can convert starts into a big score to set them up for a stronger finish. In the bowling department, Shamar Joseph lacked the impact they would have hoped for, which could see Matthew Forde, who shined in the ODI series, slot in to add more bite to their attack in the next game. After taking a heavy toll from Salt and Bethell, the West Indies bowlers will be eager for a quick turnaround to put on a stronger display in the second T20I. Another exciting contest awaits as both teams look to assert themselves in this exciting series. Who are you backing to come out on top?
