Match Preview

The first ODI of the West Indies' visit of England will pit England against the West Indies.  Birmingham's Edgbaston will host this game. Given that both teams are fighting to qualify for the 2027 World Cup, this ODI series is extremely significant. The top eight teams in the rankings will automatically qualify, as will co-hosts South Africa, Namibia, and Zimbabwe.

With poor records in recent ODI matches, England and the West Indies are ranked eighth and ninth, respectively. Shai Hope will captain the West Indies, while Harry Brook will skipper England. There are very talented players on both teams, and this game is sure to be fiercely contested.
