England vs West Indies prediction

Two teams capable of big scores do battle in Mumbai with both England and West Indies looking to make it back-to-back group stage victories. On what is expected to be a fresh pitch in the evening, the toss will likely be very important with the winner expected to bowl first with a view to chasing later on.

England boast a very good recent record against the Windies, especially since they were famously beaten by them in the 2016 Men’s T20 World Cup final when Carlos Braithwaite memorably took down Ben Stokes in the final over at Eden Gardens. But England have won seven of the last eight T20i fixtures between the two sides which included one match in the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup and Harry Brook’s side should be backed with their impressive array of batters to make it eight from nine.
