West Indies Tour of England 2024 Schedule, Team Squads & Live Streaming
Team England had a forgetful time in the Caribbean in the last series which was England’s tour of West Indies 2023 comprised of ODIs and T20I matches which unexpectedly they lost raising more questions on the leadership of Jos Buttler. However, this West Indies tour of England 2024 provides a new opportunity as it is comprised of only test matches plus the home advantage will certainly help the bazball approach England has been playing under Ben Stokes’s leadership. England has a tough test series against India before this home tour so it will be interesting to see what achievements Ben Stokes and his team can produce against one of the strongest test teams on paper and if they do lose cheaply in that series there is no doubt there will be added pressure when they play West Indies.Â

West Indies Tour of England 2024 Series Prediction
Favoring the shorter format of the game, the West Indies cricket team has faced challenges in the longer format, leading to inconsistent performances in test cricket. The team’s recent track record in test cricket has been less than stellar, with struggles in both batting and bowling departments. On the other hand, England has shown dominance in test cricket, especially on home soil.
Bookmakers have favored England to clean sweep West Indies by 3-0 in the upcoming series. This prediction is based on several factors, including England’s strong test team, home advantage, and West Indies’ historical difficulties in the longer format. However, predictions are just that – predictions. Cricket has shown time and again that it is full of uncertainties, and upsets are not uncommon.
Despite the odds stacked against them, West Indies could still pose a challenge to the English side. The team has shown flashes of brilliance in test cricket in the past and possesses individual talents who can turn the game on its head.
