The average first innings score in Barbados has been 187 since 2021, with the teams batting first, winning only two of the eight ODIs here. The pacers have taken 55.64% of wickets, which means the spinners will also have a say, particularly in the middle overs. A total of around 240 can be a fighting one, and the teams winning the toss might elect to bowl first.
A temperature of around 29°C, with clouds covering the sky, is forecast.
West Indies: Alick Athanaze, Brandon King, Keacy Carty, Shai Hope (c & wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Sherfane Rutherford, Yannic Cariah, Romario Shepherd, Alzarri Joseph, Gudakesh Motie, Oshane Thomas.
England: Phil Salt, Will Jacks, Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Harry Brook, Jos Buttler (c & wk), Liam Livingstone, Sam Curran, Brydon Carse, Rehan Ahmed, Gus Atkinson.

Shai Hope: Shai Hope is the most popular captaincy option for this game. Hope has been in tremendous form this series and will look to extend his good work. He has scores of 109* & 68 in this series.
Sam Curran: Sam Curran took three wickets in the previous game and can again be effective on a sluggish Barbados track. His cutters will be mighty effective here. Curran can also contribute with the bat.
Harry Brook: Harry Brook has batted exceptionally well this series and can again play a good innings. He is slowly starting to find the ideal ODI tempo. Expect Brook to have a fine outing.
Alzarri Joseph: Alzarri Joseph has surprisingly been picked up by less than 38% of users as of now, making him a good differential pick. Joseph has a sensational record in Barbados, snaring 25 wickets at 16.48 runs apiece in ten ODI innings. He knows the conditions well and can dismiss a few batters.
Zak Crawley: Zak Crawley has been selected by less than 25% of people as of now. While Crawley might have failed to make an impact, he is a fine ODI batter and can score big in this game. Try him in a few teams.
Keacy Carty: Keacy Carty hasn’t done anything significant in this series and can be avoided for this game.
If WI bat first:
Complete the team with Shimron Hetmyer, Sherfane Rutherford and Liam Livingstone.
