ENG Vs WI 2nd T20I Expert Advice
On the basis of recent form and home advantage, the Harry Brook-led England cricket team will start out as clear favourites to win the second T20I and clinch the series with a game to spare. The hosts will once again rely on senior top-order batter Jos Buttler to sustain his prolific run with the bat. Brydon Carse will have a big role to play on the Bristol surface, especially with the new ball.
For the West Indies, it is imperative for senior pros like Shai Hope, Andre Russell and Romario Shepherd come up clutch with the bat. While spinners managed to restrict the Englishmen to a certain extent in the series-opener, West Indies fast bowlers Jason Holder and Alzarri Joseph will have to keep the hosts in check.
