Team News
One change for the Windies squad, Obed McCoy is injured; Jason Holder replaces him.
Mahmudullah said after the toss: “We’re going to bowl first. We had a bit of a look at the stats. They’ve got a great batting order depth, so we’ll try to restrict them to a decent total and try to chase it down. Two changes. Nurul is not playing. Soumya Sarkar comes in. Nasum is not playing, and Taskin comes in.”
Windies skipper Kieron Pollard: “It is (do or die). That’s the reality of the situation. We don’t have anyone to blame but ourselves, so it’s on us to get out of this situation. We need to give the bowlers something to defend. Two changes. Simmons misses out, Roston Chase makes his international debut. Hayden Walsh is out, and Jason Holder comes in.”
Pollard confirms that Chris Gayle is going to open the batting.
