ENG vs WI Players to watch out for

Jos Buttler (ENG) – The former England captain failed to score big in the first fixture of the tournament, getting dismissed for 26 (17). Buttler has vast experience of playing at the Wankhede Stadium and is likely to play another explosive innings in the upcoming fixture. He has slammed one hundred and three fifties at the venue, and his fans would hope for another big innings from his willow in the upcoming fixture.

Akeal Hosein (WI) – The left-arm spinner has been one of the top performers with the ball for the West Indies in recent times. Hosein registered expensive figures of 0/26 in two overs, but possesses the ability and the skillset to bounce back strongly in the upcoming fixture. Given the success of left-arm spinners at the venue so far in the tournament, Hosein is likely to have a good outing in the fixture.
