<description><![CDATA[The West Indies head coach was handed a 15% of fine and one demerit point for question the TV umpire's decisions that went against his side in the Bridgetown Test. ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/07/sammy.webp" width="1280" height="720" alt="sammy.webp"/><p>West Indies head coach Daren Sammy was caught in the eye of storm when he reportedly picked up a fight with the match referee Javagal Srinath during the first Test at Bridegtown, Barbados. Sammy was unhappy with the umpiring standards and voiced his frustration, urging the TV umpire to be more consistent with his decision making. </p><p>Controversy erupted when Head was demmed not out by the TV umpire Adrian Holdstock even when it appeared that the ball had clearly settled into the keeper's gloves. A similar contentious caught behind incident surfaced later on in the West Indian innings. This time around, much to everyone's surprise, the decision went in the home side's favor even when subsequent replays clearly indicated that the ball hadn't carried cleanly into the keeper's gloves. </p><p>Sammy was furious with the events that unfolded and expressed his anguish to Srinath, questioning Holdstock's decision-making work. Following the end of the Test, Sammy was reprimanded by the <a href="https://www.icc-cricket.com/index" target="_blank" rel="noopener">International Cricket Council (ICC)</a> for showing dissent and earned a 15% fine on his fees along with one demerit point.</p><p><strong>See also: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/wi-vs-aus-1st-test-key-moments-and-full-match-highlights/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WI vs AUS 1st Test: Key moments and Full match highlights</a><br></p><h3>'I hold no grudges', Sammy opens up following the end of the controversial Test</h3><p>As the dust settles on the first Test, Sammy has made it clear that he holds no grudges against the match officials. The fact that the match officials department have confessed their errors puts him at ease. Despite being displeased with Holdstock's work in the first Test, Sammy wishes him all the best for his upcoming game and expresses his desire to move on. </p><p>"I don't hold grudges. I said what I said, based on what I saw. I've been punished for it. I wish Adrian all the best, to be honest. I mean, we're all human. I have nothing against the umpires. I really wish he has an awesome game."</p><p>While the West Indies were caught on the wrong side of the technology, the Australian team has steered clear from the controversy so far. However, <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/australia-record-their-lowest-ever-test-total-against-the-west-indies-in-30-years/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Australia</a> wicketkeeper Alex Carey made a startling revelation about the diving catch he took to get rid of Shai Hope. Although Carey was convinced that he took a full-diving catch cleanly, replays seemed to have suggested otherwise. But as fate would have it, Carey emerged on the right side and Australia were able to miraculously manufacture a wicket out of it. </p>]]></content:encoded>

<description><![CDATA[West Indies emerged victorious in the final T20I on the back of some explosive batting to take the series 1-0. ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/06/wivsire3.webp" width="1280" height="760" alt="wivsire3.webp"/><p>At last, the rain stayed away and the <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/west-indies-announce-their-new-captain-for-test-format/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">West Indies</a> triumphed against Ireland in the third and final T20I at Bready to clinch the series 1-0. The weather stayed clear and, much to the visitors' delight, their in-form batters went berserk, punishing the Irish bowlers mercilessly. In what turned out to be a high-voltage thriller, the West Indies, while batting first, mounted an astronomical score of 256 for the loss of five wickets, making it their second-highest T20I score. <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/evin-lewis-431901" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Evin Lewis</a> (91 off 44) and Shai Hope (51 off 27) were the top performers with the bat for the Men in Maroon, while Akeal Hosein emerged as the pick of the bowlers, returning economical figures of 3-27. </p><p>There was not much to cherish from the Irish point of view. Apart from Humphreys, who went at just 4 RPO while picking up two wickets, the rest of the Irish bowlers went for plenty, with every bowler going at more than 12 RPO. Ireland, in response, tried to stage a counter-attack in the second half, but the target proved way beyond their reach and they comfortably fell short by 62 runs. </p><p><strong>See also:</strong> <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/west-indies-vs-australia-jamaica-s-sabina-park-eyes-pink-ball-test/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">West Indies vs Australia: Jamaica’s Sabina Park Eyes Pink-Ball Test</a></p><h3>West Indies Innings</h3><p>The West Indies started off their innings in a dominating fashion. The WI openers Lewis and Hope got the visitors off to a flyer, piling on 122 runs within the first 11 overs. The Irish bowlers, especially Liam McCarthy, were taken aback early doors by the incredible hitting and simply had no answers to the onslaught. Hope played a composed knock of 51, while Lewis was the aggressor, hammering 91 and narrowly missing out on a well-deserved century. The duo hit a combined 12 sixes and 11 fours which completly crippled the Irish bowling attack by the halfway stage. </p><p>Ireland, on the other hand, didn’t have the ideal start, conceding a few loose deliveries that the Men in Maroon were quick to capitalize on. But during the middle overs, they did try to exert some control with the ball, chipping in with a few quick wickets. But that did not seem to have a great deal of impact on the WI innings as Keacy Carty had an impressive T20I debut, finishing unbeaten on 49 in just 22 balls. Romario Shepherd added the finishing touches with a flurry of boundaries, which helped the Windies surge past the 250-run mark in blazing style.</p><h3>Ireland Innings</h3><p>In pursuit of their humongous target of 257, Ireland suffered an early blow, losing their captain, Paul Stirling, in only the second over of the run chase. But following that dismissal, a steady 101-run partnership between Ross Adair (48) and Harry Tector (38) followed, which somewhat revived the faint hopes of a potential Irish win. But they were still way behind in the run chase, with the asking rate nearly touching 16 RPO at the halfway stage. After that brief fightback, both Ross and Tector were removed in quick succession in the space of just four balls.</p><p>Their quick departures meant a disastrous middle-order collapse, and Ireland never quite recovered. Despite some late resistance from George Dockrell (15 off 8), Mark Adair (31 off 14), and Liam McCarthy (16 off 15) in the lower order, the task proved too tall. The Windies bowlers were able to get themselves back into business after overcoming a resilient stand between Ross and Tector. Once that partnership was broken, the West Indies never offered any realistic opportunity for Ireland to make a comeback. Akeal Hosein led the bowling effort for the visitors and starred with an impressive three-wicket haul, while Jason Holder, Roston Chase, and Romario Shepherd chipped in with key breakthroughs at crucial moments.</p><h3>Ireland vs West Indies: Match Scorecard</h3><p><strong>West Indies – 256/5 (20 Overs)</strong></p><table border="1"><colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><th data-start="150" data-end="176" data-col-size="sm">Batting</th><th data-start="176" data-end="195" data-col-size="sm">Runs (Balls)</th><th data-start="195" data-end="219" data-col-size="sm">Bowling</th><th data-start="219" data-end="247" data-col-size="sm">Wickets/Runs (Overs)</th></tr><tr><td>Evin Lewis</td><td>91 (44)</td><td>Matthew Humphreys</td><td>2-16 (4)</td></tr><tr><td>Shai Hope</td><td>51 (27)</td><td>Ben White</td><td>1-50 (4)</td></tr><tr><td>Keacy Carty</td><td>49 (22)</td><td>Mark Adair</td><td>1-52(4)</td></tr></tbody></table><p><strong>Ireland – 194/7 (20 Overs)</strong></p><table border="1"><colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><th data-start="150" data-end="176" data-col-size="sm">Batting</th><th data-start="176" data-end="195" data-col-size="sm">Runs (Balls)</th><th data-start="195" data-end="219" data-col-size="sm">Bowling</th><th data-start="219" data-end="247" data-col-size="sm">Wickets/Runs (Overs)</th></tr><tr><td>Ross Adair </td><td>48 (36)</td><td>Akeal Hosein</td><td>3-27 (4)</td></tr><tr><td>Harry Tector </td><td>38 (25)</td><td>Romario Shepherd</td><td>1-23 (3)</td></tr><tr><td>Mark Adair </td><td>31 (14)</td><td>Jason Holder</td><td>2-49 (4)</td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p>]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/06/IRE-vs WI Winner.webp" width="1200" height="720" alt="IRE vs WI Winner.webp"/><p>The third and final T20I match of the three-match series between Ireland and <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/nepal-and-the-west-indies-embark-on-a-historic-bilateral-series-adventure-in-september/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">West Indies</a> will commence on June 15 at the <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricket-grounds/bready-cricket-club-magheramason-bready-58650/records" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bready Cricket Club</a> in Magheramason. The series has been negatively impacted by the weather, with the first two games being washed out completely without a single ball being bowled. Although the forecast for the third T20I does not look bright either, both teams would be hoping to get some time out in the middle. There are high chances of the third game being abandoned as well, but we remain hopeful that this is not the case. Previously, the two sides met in the ODI series last month, which ended in a 1-1 stalemate. </p><p>The home team boasts a commendable track record against the Windies in this format. Their historic victory over the West Indies in the 2022 T20 World Cup was clearly a win for the ages, as that win led to the humiliating exit of the 2016 champions. Although they hold an impressive 3-3 win record against a quality T20 side, Ireland has yet to secure a series win against the West Indies. On the other hand, the visiting team is currently experiencing a challenging tour. The Men in Maroon competed against Ireland in a three-match ODI series but struggled significantly, resulting in a 1-1 draw. Furthermore, the team suffered a severe setback in their England series previously, losing both the T20I and ODI series without registering a single win.</p><p><strong>See also:</strong> <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/watch-wtc-final-sa-vs-aus-relive-history-in-making-as-south-africa-win-icc-title-after-27-years/#google_vignette" target="_blank" rel="noopener">[WATCH] WTC Final SA vs AUS: Relive History in making as South Africa win ICC title after 27 years</a></p><h3>Match Details</h3><table border="1"><colgroup><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><td><strong>Match</strong></td><td><strong>Ireland vs West Indies, 3rd T20I, 2025</strong></td></tr><tr><td>Venue</td><td>Bready Cricket Club, Magheramason, Bready</td></tr><tr><td>Date & Time (IST) </td><td>Sunday, June 15, 7:30 PM</td></tr><tr><td>Live Broadcast and Streaming Details </td><td>Fancode App</td></tr></tbody></table><h3>Weather Report</h3><p>The weather will once again play its part in the third and final T20I fixture of the series. It has been raining nonstop in Bready for the past few days, and it is highly likely that the rain will persist on Sunday as well. Gloomy overhead conditions and moderate to low precipitation of 20% are predicted by Google Weather. However, the forecast can worsen as time rolls by. During the day, the temperature can reach a maximum of 16 °C and can go down to as low as 9 °C at dusk or beyond. Humidity rate is on the higher side, around 81%, while wind speed is expected to clock speeds of 21 km/hr.</p><h3>Pitch Report</h3><p>The pitch at Bready Cricket Club provides equitable support to both bowlers and batsmen. The batters are able to take advantage of the consistent bounce, allowing them to execute their shots with confidence once they have acclimatized. Additionally, the presence of a rapid outfield enhances their opportunities. Fast bowlers gain from additional bounce and movement, particularly during the early overs. Similarly, spinners achieve success owing to the reliable bounce.

The showdown will be staged at the <a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricket-grounds/bready-cricket-club-magheramason-bready-58650/records">Bready Cricket Club</a> in Magheramason. Previously, at this venue, the weather played a massive spoilsport, forcing the abandonment of the first T20I without a ball being bowled. The weather forecast for the second game does not look very bright either, as there are chances of light to moderate rainfall on match day. Good Weather predicts a precipitation rate of 40% between 2 PM to 5 PM local time. At this stage, the series currently stands at 0-0, and both teams would be hoping to get some time in the middle. </p><p>The home side has a very promising track record against the Windies. Their historic win against the <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/west-indies-penalized-for-maintaining-slow-over-rate-against-england-in-the-first-odi/">West Indies</a> in their last T20I game in the 2022 T20 World Cup is a feat, the young Irish team would be mighty proud of. Despite having an impressive 3-3 win record against a quality T20 side, Ireland are yet to register a series victory over the West Indies. Meanwhile, the tourists are in the midst of a very rough tour. The Men in Maroon faced Ireland in a three-match ODI series and did not have a lot of success, with the series ending in a 1-1 stalemate. Moving on, the team was brutally humiliated by the Harry Brook-led English side in the ODI and T20I series, ending that tour without achieving a single win.</p><p><strong>See also: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/fantasy-cricket-tips/ire-vs-wi-dream11-prediction-today-fantasy-cricket-tips-playing11-and-pitch-report/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IRE vs WI Dream11 Prediction Today: Fantasy Cricket Tips Playing11 and Pitch Report</a> <br></p><h3>Match Details</h3><table border="1"><colgroup><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><td><strong>Match</strong></td><td><strong>Ireland vs West Indies, 2nd T20I, 2025</strong></td></tr><tr><td>Venue</td><td>Bready Cricket Club, Magheramason, Bready</td></tr><tr><td>Date & Time (IST) </td><td>Thursday, June 14, 7:30 PM</td></tr><tr><td>Live Broadcast and Streaming Details </td><td>Fancode App</td></tr></tbody></table><h3>Pitch Report</h3><p>The pitch at Bready Cricket Club provides equitable support to both bowlers and batsmen.

<description><![CDATA[England concluded the series on a high, beating the West Indies convincingly by 37 runs to take the series 3-0.]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/06/wivseng.webp" width="1280" height="853" alt="wivseng.webp"/><p>England crushed the <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/eng-vs-wi-2025-england-vs-west-indies-2nd-t20i-match-highlights/">West Indies</a> and registered a thumping 3-0 series win on the back of a convincing 37-run victory at The Rose Bowl in Southampton on Tuesday. In a show of brute dominance, the batters on both sides went all guns blazing. It was certainly a painful outing for the bowlers as massive fireworks ensued and the ball travelled to all parts. A blistering display from the English openers, Jamie Smith (60 off 26) and Ben Duckett (84 off 46), lifted England to 248—their second-highest total in T20I history. The West Indies, in response, displayed a spirited fightback. Rovman Powell (79 off 45) and Shimron Hetmyer (26 off 8) showcased extraordinary brilliance, but the Windies fell comprehensively short of their desired target. </p><h3>England Innings</h3><p>After being inserted to bat, openers Ben Duckett and Jamie Smith launched a ferocious assault on the Windies bowlers, registering a dominant 120-run stand inside just nine overs. Smith blazed his way to 60 before falling, while Duckett continued the onslaught with a scintillating 84 off 46 balls. By the halfway stage of the innings, England had reached the score of 135-1 which became their highest score in T20I cricket after 10 overs. Contributions from Jos Buttler, Harry Brook, and Jacob Bethell kept the momentum going, propelling England to the brink of the 250-run mark.</p><p>England’s batters came out all guns blazing, leaving the West Indies with few answers in the early exchanges. However, to their credit, the visitors pulled things back nicely after the halfway mark, stringing together some quiet overs and picking up key wickets to stem the flow. Akeal Hosein, Gudakesh Motie, and Sherfane Rutherford chipped in with a wicket each, while Jason Holder impressed with a tidy spell at the death.</p><h3>West Indies Innings</h3><p>Chasing a record 249 for a consolation win was always going to be a tough ask for the visitors. The West Indies stumbled early, losing both openers within the first five overs. While Shimron Hetmyer and Jason Holder offered brief resistance, it was Shai Hope (45) and Rovman Powell (unbeaten 79) who provided the only substantial fight. Despite their efforts, the Men in Maroon fell well short, outplayed by a disciplined and clinical English side. The English bowlers did go for a few runs but picked up timely wickets along the way, which kept them alive in the game. </p><p>Besides, some helpful contributions from Hetmyer (26 off 8) and Holder (25 off 12) did help West Indies get close to their target but the constant fall of wickets kept pegging them back. Luke Wood led the way for England with an impressive three-wicket haul (3-41), while Rashid, Carse, Dawson, and Bethell each contributed with key breakthroughs. </p><p><strong>See also: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ire-vs-wi-2025-ireland-vs-west-indies-1st-t20i-match-preview/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IRE vs WI, 2025: Ireland vs West Indies, 1st T20I Match Preview</a></p><h3>England vs West Indies: Match Scorecard</h3><p><strong>England – 248/3 (20 Overs)</strong></p><table border="1"><colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><th data-start="150" data-end="176" data-col-size="sm">Batting</th><th data-start="176" data-end="195" data-col-size="sm">Runs (Balls)</th><th data-start="195" data-end="219" data-col-size="sm">Bowling</th><th data-start="219" data-end="247" data-col-size="sm">Wickets/Runs (Overs)</th></tr><tr><td>Ben Duckett</td><td>60 (26)</td><td>Sherfane Rutherford</td><td>1-20 (2)</td></tr><tr><td>Jamie Smith</td><td>84 (46)</td><td>Akeal Hosein</td><td>1-42 (4)</td></tr><tr><td>Jacob Bethell</td><td>36 (16)</td><td>Gudakesh Motie</td><td>1-44 (4)</td></tr></tbody></table><p><strong>West Indies – 211/8 (20 Overs)</strong></p><table border="1"><colgroup><col><col><col><col></colgroup><tbody><tr><th data-start="150" data-end="176" data-col-size="sm">Batting</th><th data-start="176" data-end="195" data-col-size="sm">Runs (Balls)</th><th data-start="195" data-end="219" data-col-size="sm">Bowling</th><th data-start="219" data-end="247" data-col-size="sm">Wickets/Runs (Overs)</th></tr><tr><td>Rovman Powell </td><td>79 (45)</td><td>Luke Wood</td><td>3-31 (4)</td></tr><tr><td>Shai Hope</td><td>45 (27)</td><td>Adil Rashid</td><td>2-30 (4)</td></tr><tr><td>Shimron Hetmyer </td><td>26 (8)</td><td>Liam Dawson</td><td>1-34 (4)</td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p>]]></content:encoded>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/media/2025/06/wi.webp" width="1932" height="828" alt="wi.webp"/><p>The International Cricket Council (ICC) has levied stringent over-rate sanctions on the West Indies for maintaining a slow over-rate against England in the first ODI at Edgbaston. It was found that the West Indies had failed to complete their full quota of 50 overs within the stipulated time frame (inclusive of time allowances).</p><p>As a punishment, Emirates ICC Elite Panel match referee Jeff Crowe slapped a five percent fine on every player's match fees. </p><p><strong>See also:</strong> <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/michael-atherton-trolls-nasser-hussain-over-jacob-bethell-s-ipl-call-questions-loyalty-to-england/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Michael Atherton Trolls Nasser Hussain Over Jacob Bethell’s IPL Call, Questions Loyalty to England</a></p><h3>ICC penalizes Shai Hope & Co. for maintaining slow over-rate</h3><p><strong>Article 2.22</strong> of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel addresses offences related to slow over rates. According to existing ICC regulations, players incur a penalty of five percent of their match fee for every over that their team does not complete within the designated time.</p><p>The breach of the law was highlighted by the two on-field umpires, Kumar Dharmasena and Martin Saggers, along with third umpire Adrian Holdstock and fourth umpire Graham Lloyd. Shai Hope accepted the punishment for the offense, and hence, no formal hearing was needed. </p><p>England registered a crushing win in their first ODI, brushing aside the WI by a whopping margin of 238 runs. England powered their way to a robust 400/8, thanks to impressive half-centuries from Ben Duckett, Joe Root, Harry Brook, and Jacob Bethell. In reply to England's formidable total, the West Indies were dismissed for 162, with Saqib Mahmood and Jamie Overton each taking three wickets.

The Harry Brook Era has begun with a BANG! Under Brook's <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/england-announces-new-captains-for-t20is-and-odis/">renewed leadership</a>, England have finally managed to put an end to their dismal seven-match losing streak by thrashing West Indies left, right, and center. During the first ODI of the three-match ODI series, England pounded the visitors mercilessly and in the process, registered their biggest win in ODI cricket, by a margin of 238 runs. And by doing so, they surpassed their previous best record of the biggest wins of 232 runs, which they achieved against the Dutchmen back in 2022. </p><p><strong>See also: </strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/namibia-set-to-face-south-africa-for-the-first-time-in-international-cricket/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Namibia set to face South Africa for the first time in international cricket</a></p><p>England batters displayed flashes of brilliance in the first innings, posting a colossal 400 for the loss of eight wickets. Surprisingly, no batsman made it to three figures in this game. Jacob Bethell slammed a quickfire 82 off 53 balls, whereas Ben Duckett set the tone early by scoring a well-controlled 60. Joe Root and Harry Brook were the other two English batters who made handy contributions of 58 and 57, respectively, to take England to the 400-run mark.</p><p>The West Indies' response was very brittle as the entire batting lineup succumbed under intense scoreboard pressure. They were bowled out for a shocking 162. Despite a spirited final-wicket partnership between Alzarri Joseph and Jayden Seales, England's disciplined bowling and sharp fielding crippled the visitors on all fronts.</p><p>Saqib Mahmood led the attack with 3 wickets for 32 runs, while Jamie Overton, despite a finger injury, claimed 3 wickets. Adil Rashid and Brydon Carse also contributed with key wickets.</p><h3>A rundown of some notable records</h3><ol><li>England's 400-8 is the highest score achieved by the team without a single batsman registering a century.</li><li>Harry Brook's tally of five catches is now the most number of catches held by any fielder in an ODI innings, surpassing Woakes' tally of four.</li><li>England's first-innings score of 400-8 is also their second-highest score at Edgbaston. </li><li>The 238-run victory is the biggest win for England in ODI cricket in terms of run margin.</li><li>This is also their biggest ODI win against the West Indies.</li><li>Overall, this is the fifth biggest win in terms of run margin ever recorded in ODI cricket. The biggest being India's 317-run victory against Sri Lanka in 2023.</li><li>Bethell slammed his career-best ODI score of 82 (53)</li></ol><p>It's safe to say that a new era has begun for England Cricket, and hopefully it is the start of something really incredible. While the miseries of the 2023 ODI WC and the CT 2025 may have been washed away after the historic win, Brook and his men can't afford to lower their guard. They will need to be result-oriented and will have to work consistently enough to get themselves battle-ready for the upcoming ODI World Cup. </p>]]></content:encoded>

The match is being played on Thursday, May 29, at Edgbaston, Birmingham, in a positive environment, promising high-intensity cricket, between two sides looking for redemption. <strong><a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ind-vs-eng-test-2025-live-streaming-how-to-watch-india-vs-england-test-matches-on-tv-and-mobile/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">England</a></strong>, with a seven-match losing streak, are looking to change their wave of losing and attempt a fresh start with their new White-Ball captain, Harry Brook. The West Indies will be buoyed by some positive light after rain leads to a draw against Ireland and will aim to restore their confidence in International cricket. </p><p>This fixture represents an inflection point for England's one-day international campaign. Brook will lead a rejuvenated England side into action, starting with this game. Fresh, young, and energetic players like Will Jacks and Matthew Potts will give the squad new life. Experienced veterans like Joe Root and Jos Buttler will provide the knowledge and expertise to ensure the team is steady, and they need to be steady. The strengths of the valuable spinner, Adil Rashid, will help contain the West Indies's aggressive middle order. Thus, England will look to balance fresh blood with experience as it aims to regain ODI supremacy.</p><p><strong>See Also: <a href="https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/ind-vs-eng-test-2025-live-streaming-how-to-watch-india-vs-england-test-matches-on-tv-and-mobile/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">IND vs ENG Test 2025 Live Streaming: How to watch India vs England Test matches on TV and mobile</a></strong></p><p>Conversely, the West Indies, captained by <strong><a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/shai-hope-581379" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shai Hope</a></strong>, are also keen to change their luck. The West Indies have struggled for consistency for so long, but the emergence of a new wave of players, namely Shamar Joseph and Matthew Forde, paired with the experience of Alzarri Joseph and Roston Chase, should help reverse their fortunes. With every match vital to qualifying for the 2027 World Cup, the West Indies players are aware of the importance of every performance.
