Hot Picks For ENG Vs WI 1st T20I Dream11 Team Today

England

Jos Buttler

  • Recent Form: 271 runs in 10 matches
  • Former England captain Jos Buttler has tallied 271 runs in his last 10 T20I innings at an average of 30.11 and at a staggering strike rate of 150.55. Buttler also holds an overall T20I experience of 134 matches, aggregating over 3,500 runs in the process.

Harry Brook

  • Recent Form: 91 runs in 5 matches
  • While Harry Brook underwent a poor five-match T20I series in India earlier this year, the newly-appointed English skipper unleashed some cracking runs in the ODI series against West Indies last week. With scores of 58, 47 and 26* under his belt, Brook will be aiming to sustain his prolific touch with the bat.

Saqib Mahmood

  • Recent Form: 12 wickets in 5 matches
  • England fast bowler Saqib Mahmood picked up eight wickets in the three ODI matches against West Indies in the last few days. While slightly expensive in T20Is, Mahmood is equally effective in the format in terms of picking up regular and crucial wickets.

West Indies

Rovman Powell

  • Recent Form: 278 runs in 10 matches
  • West Indies batter Rovman Powell has tallied 278 runs in his last 10 T20I matches at an average of nearly 31 and at a strike rate of 130.51. Powell holds an overall T20I strike rate of 140.32 after playing 91 matches.

Akeal Hosein

  • Recent Form: 8 wickets in 6 matches
  • West Indies spinner Akeal Hosein is one of the most effective spin commodities in T20I cricket at the moment. He has maintained an economy rate of just 5.87 in his last six matches. Overall, Hosein holds the tendency of delivering some tight spells with the ball.

Romario Shepherd

  • Recent Form: 55 runs and 3 wickets in 3 matches
  • Explosive West Indies all-rounder Romario Shepherd will be returning to international cricket after becoming part of RCB’s IPL 2025 winning campaign in India. While Shepherd scored just 55 runs and picked up three wickets during West Indies’ T20I series against Bangladesh late last year, the 30-year-old did endure a good IPL season.

ENG Vs WI 1st T20I Expert Advice

The English team, under Harry Brook, will start out as favourites to clinch the first T20I owing to their recent form as well as familiarity with home conditions. With players like Jos Buttler, Adil Rashid and in-form fast bowler Saqib Mahmood in their ranks, the hosts will be hoping to sustain their exceptional ODI form to T20Is.

West Indies will rely heavily on senior batters like Shai Hope, Johnson Charles and Brandon King to unleash cracking starts at the top. Fast bowlers and spinners like Alzarri Joseph, Akeal Hosein and Gudakesh Motie also need to come to the fore for the visitors.
