Dec 15, 2023 3:33 pm

The third T20I of the series between West Indies (WI) and England (ENG) will take place at National Cricket Stadium, St George’s, Grenada. With the series already clinched by the home side, the result of the match would not affect the eventual outcome of the series. But a lot is to be played in the match for the pride. The players would be looking forward to scoring runs and taking wickets.

Some of the players are woefully out of form. The likes of Jos Buttler, Chris Woakes, and others would be hoping to be back among runs and wickets ahead of the important series next year. More importantly, it would be a good opportunity for both sides to check their team combinations. It would be crucial for both teams to test their players ahead of the big tournament.

The T20 WC 2024 will be played in the WI and the USA. In that regard, the third T20I will be important to know more about the playing conditions. England would be looking forward to the game more than the home side, as they need a win badly. Their limited-overs series has not been great, as they lost the series in both formats. A win would be like a consolation for them on a tour that did not go well as expected.

WI vs ENG: Pitch Report

The third T20I between the two sides is set to be played at National Cricket Stadium, St George’s, Grenada. Over the years, the wicket has been known to be helpful for the spinners. Like many other wickets in the Caribbean islands, St George’s pitch assists the bowlers more than the batters. The bowlers would enjoy bowling a lot at the venue. The ground is bigger, and the pitch is slow. Batters might not enjoy a lot at the venue.

Temas winning the toss might be wanting to bat first, as chasing may not be the best option. With no dew affecting the match, the pitch is likely to get slower with the progression of the game. The left-arm orthodox spinners like Akeal Hosein and Gudakesh Motie would enjoy bowling a lot at the venue, as the ball grips a lot. 160-180 might be a par score at the venue. Batters who show patience would be rewarded in the later part.
