West Indies also began their T20 World Cup campaign with a win over Scotland.

"We're going to have a bowl. We've looked at the stats, and they favour the team batting second, so we'd like to chase tonight. It's all about staying calm, really - sticking to our processes and game plans. Hopefully, we can put in a good performance tonight. Jamie Overton comes in for Luke Wood. Just a bit of extra batting depth. There's no issue or hardships for Luke - we've simply decided to go down that route tonight," England skipper Harry Brook said.

West Indies skipper Shai Hope highlighted the importance of the game and termed it as a "big fixture for us"

"We would've bowled first as well, but now it's about setting the tone with the bat. It can feel like a bit of a wrestling match when you play the same opposition regularly. You know what they're capable of, and they know you too. It's important that we bring our A game. This is a big fixture for us, and we'll be ready. We have one change - Forde misses out and Roston Chase comes in. Just tactical - we felt his skill set would be a good counter, especially against their left-handers. He's also a versatile option in the middle order and gives us flexibility at different stages of the game," West Indies skipper Shai Hope said.

Teams: West Indies (Playing XI): Brandon King, Shai Hope(w/c), Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, Roston Chase, Romario Shepherd, Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, Gudakesh Motie, Shamar Joseph. England (Playing XI): Philip Salt, Jos Buttler(w), Jacob Bethell, Tom Banton, Harry Brook(c), Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Liam Dawson, Jamie Overton, Jofra Archer, Adil Rashid. (ANI)
