Match 14 of the 2021 ICC T20 World Cup and it’s just the second game of the Super 12s stage in the UAE. Earlier in the day, it’s Australia vs South Africa to kick start proceedings and now, it’s 50-over World Cup champions England who will be looking to stamp their authority on the tournament, in Group A of this stage. They’ve won the T20 World Cup way back in 2010 and here, they won against New Zealand and lost to India in the warmups.
It was not the best of times for West Indies in those warmup games though, losing to both Pakistan and Afghanistan. However, there will be more pace on the ball against an opponent like England and you can expect some big hitting. Windies is coming off a T20 series win against Australia as well.

Numbers
- Head to head in last 5 games, England leads 3-2.
- Eoin Morgan – highest score of 13* in last 10 games.
- Dwayne Bravo – only 3 wickets in last 4 IPL 2021 games.
England
At the top of the order is where England’s biggest strength lies. And after seeing his prowess as opener, England tried Jos Buttler at the top in their warmup against New Zealand where he scored 73(51), so he’s in good form and will enjoy the length from WI pacers. Another person you wouldn’t want to leave out of your ENG vs WI fantasy team is Liam Livingstone who failed with 1 run in the last game but he bowls as well, picking a wicket in each warmup game.
With Jofra Archer and Sam Curran out, the bowling is slightly weakened but Tymal Mills has made a good comeback to international cricket after fabulous bowling the domestic circuit. If he maintains his discipline, he could be one of the top wicket-takers this tournament too. Adil Rashid is another must have bowler because he finds ways to get wickets at crucial times and if picked in the playing eleven, add David Willey to your side as well.
West Indies
Now 42 years old, Chris Gayle has no fifty in his last 10 games and more across tournaments, but he tends to bring his best in such return games for West Indies. He scored 20 in his only warmup game and you can expect a couple of big blows from him today. Another very senior statesman, we have all-rounder Dwayne Bravo who is unlikely to bat up the order but he’s super experienced and bowled a tight 1/29 in the IPL 2021 final recently, which they won.

Among the youngster, Nicholas Pooran has been severely out of form and is coming of a poor IPL 2021 season for Punjab Kings too, so we may skip him from our MyFab11 (sign-up with code “READAD46“) ENG vs WI fantasy team today. Roston Chase had a fabulous CPL 2021 which catapulted him into the T20 squad but his form seems to have dwindled, scoring 54(58)* against Afghanistan and he may be left out today.
