England win the toss and will bowl!
Buttler calls correctly, again. “We are going to bowl first again because we put in a good performance and want to repeat it.”
News on Reece Topley? “He’s doing ok, he’s going to miss today with Jofra Archer coming in but it doesn’t look like anything serious.”
Why is he batting at No.3? “An opportunity to do something different and gives Jacks an opportunity to try it in the international game. We’re having a look at the balance and see how it goes.”
win the toss and will
The TNT studio is open. Someone give Steven Finn and Sam Billings a chair.
Preamble
Good evening/afternoon/morning, wherever you are. We roll into this second T20, of a five-match series, with the scorch marks from England’s smokin victory last night still on the grass. Phil Salt (103) and Jacob Bethell (58), two of England’s bombastic Barbados boys, ensured that England cruised past West Indies with 3.1 overs left. Can they do it again? Play starts at 8pm GMT, do join us to find out.
