Pitch Report

The pacers are expected to rule the roost with some grass expected on the surface. There should be enough swing and bounce to keep them interested. The batters will have to bide their time in the middle to weather the new ball. As the match progresses, the spinners should also come into play with some turn expected. Both teams will look to bat first, with the pitch expected to deteriorate with each passing day.

Today’s WI vs ENG Dream11 match top picks

Wicketkeeper

Jonny Bairstow: Jonny Bairstow has been in decent form in the Test format, even scoring a hundred earlier in the series. The English middle-order batter is capable of shifting gears and is one of the better players of spin, making him a fine option for your WI vs ENG Dream11 fantasy team.

Batter

Joe Root: Joe Root is one of the top batters in the world with his record speaking for itself. Root has delivered the goods in this series as well, scoring 284 runs. Given his recent form in the longest format, Root is a must-have in your WI vs ENG Dream11 fantasy team.

All-rounder

Jason Holder: Jason Holder is a brilliant all-rounder, but hasn't been at his best in the series. The former Windies captain is expected to bat in the middle order and play a big role with the ball as well. With the conditions serving his skill-set well, Holder is one to watch out for in this game.

Bowler

Kemar Roach: Kemar Roach is the highest wicket-taker among pacers in this series, picking up seven wickets in two matches. Roach's experience has served him well and given his ability to swing the new ball, Roach should take a few wickets in Grenada.
