WI vs ENG Match Prediction – Who will win today’s 3rd T20I match? (Source – Getty Images)20
Hosts West Indies (WI) suffered back-to-back two defeats against England (ENG) in the ongoing T20I series. Both their batting and bowling departments have failed to establish authority, resulting in defeats. Ahead of the third T20I, the hosts need to address plenty of things, particularly the form of senior cricketers. Nicholas Pooran for example, is known for his power-hitting but he scored only 14 runs off 23 deliveries in the last game, while the inexperience in the bowling department has hurt the team.
England, on the other hand, will be much more relaxed. Captain Jos Buttler scored a half-century in the last game and that will give him plenty of confidence, especially when he had a very rough summer. His captaincy was under threat after England failed to qualify for the finals of the T20 World Cup and his performance was under the scanner as well. They have played a fearless brand of cricket, which helped them big time.

St Lucia Pitch Report
The surface in St Lucia is expected to favour the spinners. The surface will get better for the batters and so, bowling first will be ideal. Anything over 160 runs can be decisive in the upcoming T20I fixture between the two nations.

Probable Top Performers from WI vs ENG
Probable Best Batter: Jos Buttler
When Jos Buttler is in his zone, he is a very difficult player to stop. The England captain showed glimpses of his class in the second T20I, having scored 83 runs off 45 deliveries. Interestingly, the 34-year-old batted at number three but that didn’t change his game plan as he played a blistering knock and will be hoping to continue with the same momentum.
Probable Best Bowler: Akeal Hosein
When all the other West Indies bowlers were leaking runs, Akeal Hosein gave away only 24 runs in his four overs in the second T20I. The 31-year-old can be effective in the remaining games as well, particularly in St Lucia, where the surface can support the spinners.
