WI vs ENG Dream11 Prediction Today Match, 5th T20I: The West Indies vs England 5-match T20 series has reached a very interesting point. West Indies won the first two matches of the series easily but in the third and fourth T20 matches, England defeated West Indies badly. Now the series is tied at 2-2 between both the teams and the last T20 match is to be held on 22nd December at Brian Lara Cricket Stadium in Trinidad. When both teams come onto the field, their only aim will be to win this match and win the series.
Talking about the fourth T20 match, the host team won the toss and invited the visiting team to bat first. This decision proved to be very costly for the West Indies and both the openers of the English team gave a tremendous beating to their bowlers. In the powerplay of 6 overs, the English team scored 68 runs, whereas it took only 50 balls to reach the team’s score of 100 runs. Once again Jos Buttler scored a half-century while Philip Salt scored a century. Captain Jose Butler scored 55 runs in 29 balls and Salt scored 119 runs in 57 balls.
The England team seemed to be in full mood at the Brian Lara Cricket Stadium in Trinidad, every batsman of their team had come with a mind to play fast today. Will Jacks scored 24 runs in 9 balls while Livingstone played an unbeaten inning of 54 runs in 21 balls. The England team made a massive score of 267 runs at the loss of 3 wickets in 20 overs, which is the second-highest score in the history of International T20 cricket. Akil Hussain, Jason Holder, and Andre Russell took 1-1 wickets each for West Indies.
The Caribbean team, which came to chase the target, had a very poor start and Brandon King was dismissed by Moeen Ali on the very first ball of the innings. West Indies’ batting was much faster than England’s. But wickets were also falling at regular intervals due to which no player of his team could convert the fast start into a big score. Russell was the top scorer of West Indies scoring 51 runs in 25 balls.
Nicholas Pooran and Sherfane Rutherford scored fast. While Puran scored 39 runs in 15 balls, Rutherford scored 36 runs in 15 balls. Due to the continuous fall of wickets, West Indies were all out for 192 in 15.3 overs. If any of their batsmen had played a long innings with a little control, they would have won this match. English bowler Reece Topley took 3 wickets, Rehan Ahmed and Sam Curran took 2 wickets each, and Moeen Ali, Rashid Ali, and Chris Woakes took 1 wicket each.

WI vs ENG Probable Winner
West Indies and England both are in tremendous form and the way they played in the past 4 matches it is difficult to guess a winner, but we are going for England to win this match as they have quality bowlers which the Indies team lack. It may be a high-scoring match again and we can trust more in England’s bowlers rather than Indies’ bowlers. So England is in favor of winning this match as well as the T20I series.
