Despite being on the backfoot for most of the match, West Indies showed why they are such a dangerous team in this format. The batting though, needs to perform now and give the bowlers a good score on the board. Andre Russell’s maiden international fifty gave WI a respectable total but players like Gayle and Pooran are expected to do much more. In bowling, spinners are looking in good form while Obed McCoy has been excellent since the SA series.
