WI vs ENG Dream 11 Prediction, Fantasy Team, Today’s Playing XI, Head to Head Stats, and injury updates for England tour of West Indies, 1st ODI
England (ENG) is set to start its tour of West Indies (WI) with the first ODI on Sunday to be played in North Sound Antigua. West Indies cricket team wasn’t part of the recently held ODI World Cup 2023 after failing to qualify for the tournament.
Jos Buttler and his side England meanwhile are set to start a new era in the 50-over format. The ODI World Cup 2023 was a disappointing affair for the ODI World Cup winner as they finished 7th in the table after winning just 3 games.
The English side is going into the tour with new faces in the ODI side. Ben Stokes is out after undergoing surgery while David Willey has retired from the ODI format. West Indies on the other hand will look to start afresh and put the heartbreak of missing the last World Cup behind them.

WI vs ENG – Pitch Report
Antigua over the years has been left to produce playing surfaces which can be surprising for teams. Since this is the start of the West Indian home season one can expect a lot of runs on offer. Fast bowler will get good carry off the wicket while spinners could come into play as the game goes on. It is set to be a batter dominated game so the team that wins the toss could choose to bat first and put the opponents under pressure.
WI vs ENG – Injury Details
There are no injuries reported from either team. Shane Dowrich had retired from International cricket despite being named in the West Indian squad.
