WI vs ENG Dream11 Prediction: Batters and Wicket-Keepers
Nicholas Pooran
Nicholas Pooran should be the first choice wicketkeeper to be picked given that there is no Bairstow/Buttler in ENG's squad. He has scores of 64, 26, 18, 4, 46 & 40 in his last 6 T20I matches which is more than decent for a WK-batsman.
Jason Roy
Jason Roy has scored 2 fifties in his last 6 T20I matches and thus is in reasonable form. Having said that, in the recent practice match, he smashed 115 runs against BCA Pres XI and thus will look to carry the same momentum in this match.
Brandon King
Brandon King scored 111 runs in the recent 3-T20I series against Pakistan at a great strike rate of 168 which included a fifty as well. He will most probably be the opener for WI in this series.
WI vs ENG Dream11 Prediction: Bowlers
Adil Rashid
Adil Rashid has a great record against WI in T20Is having picked up 15 wickets in 8 matches with never being wicketless in a match.
Tymal Mills
Tymal Mills has taken 0, 3, 3 & 2 wickets respectively in his last 4 T20 matches and thus is in great form.
Odean Smith
Odean Smith took 5 wickets and also scored 36 runs in the recent 3-T20I series against Pakistan and thus can be handy with the bat also.
WI vs ENG Dream11 Prediction: All-Rounders
Liam Livingstone
Liam Livingstone scored 236 runs and took 8 wickets last year in 12 T20 internationals and thus contributed with both bat and ball in every match. He is averaging 58 fantasy points per match in his last 10 T20 matches which shows his form.
Jason Holder
Jason Holder has taken 11 wickets in his last 7 T20 matches and thus has been in good form with the ball. Talking about his batting, he can be more than handy and given that Andre Russell and Dwayne Bravo are not in the squad and hence can get more opportunity in this series with the bat.
Moeen Ali
Runs scored/Wickets taken by Moeen Ali in his last 3 T20Is read 51*/0, 37/1 and 1*/2 thus has given fantasy points with both bat and ball.
