England vs West Indies best bets

Second T20 preview: England v West Indies

England will be looking to seal the series victory on Sunday afternoon (BST), as they face the West Indies in the second T20 in Bristol.

Coming off a dominant 3-0 ODI series victory, England continued their good form in the first T20 with a 21-run win in Chester. Led by 96 runs from wicket keeper Jos Buttler, the home side set a competitive 188. In response, the West Indies struggled with the bat, as all-rounder Liam Dawson tore through the batting lineup with 4/20.

It is no surprise to see leading cricket betting sites have England as the clear favorite for this clash at -222.22. Meanwhile the visitors offer a value selection at +220.

With such a short turnaround, don’t expect drastic changes from either side for this clash. However, England may look to rotate their bowling attack with Luke Wood, Saqib Mahmood and Rehan Ahmed in the squad.

Similarly, the West Indies may look to improve their bowling lineup with the likes of Akeal Hossain and Matthew Forde waiting in the wings.

Based off the performances seen so far, expect England to continue the dominant form.

While picking which of the West Indian bowlers will take wickets is a tough ask, one player who has shown consistency is right arm pace bowler Romario Shephard. The 30-year-old has taken wickets in each of his last five T20 matches, including two in the opening game of the series. At +275 with Stake.com , Shephard is a value selection to take two or more wickets once again.
