England 30-0 (Salt 17, Jacks 11) Overs: 7
Salt bookends a Forde over with boundaries, both hit through the ring on the off side where there’s no cover back on the rope. This is a reasonable start from England, solid.
England 22-0 (Salt 9, Jacks 11) Overs: 6
The cameras pick up West Indies coach Darren Sammy calling for his bowlers to utilise the cross-seam deliveries to try and stick the ball in this sluggish pitch. Sales does just that, and is tricky to get away during another decent over. Remember that you can watch this game right now on TNT Sports 1.
England 20-0 (Salt 8, Jacks 10) Overs: 5
Jacks miscues a drive off Forde and is relieved to see it drop short of the fielders in the ring. Just one single comes off another tidy over.
England 19-0 (Salt 8, Jacks 9) Overs: 4
Nice again from Seales, who concedes just the two runs from a very tidy second over.
England 17-0 (Salt 6, Jacks 9) Overs: 3
Jacks tucks a wayward Forde delivery off his legs for four and he finishes the over with a glorious cover drive, continuing a solid start from this opening pair.
It could well be that only one of these two make the XI for the Champions Trophy, with Duckett, Root, Brook, Smith and Buttler all in contention to come back into the team, not to mention the possibility of Stokes returning to the ODI set-up.
England 8-0 (Salt 6, Jacks 1) Overs: 2
It’s a really tidy opening over from Seales, who makes up part of a very strong West Indian bowling attack here. Three runs come from it.
England 5-0 (Salt 4, Jacks 0) Overs: 1
England start in style as Phil Salt scythes his third ball off Forde to the rope. The ball doesn’t run away all that well, so we could see plenty of hard-run twos and threes. A no ball extends the over.
It’s not often you have four debutants in the same XI, but that’s the case with England, who hand ODI caps to Jordan Cox, Dan Mousley, Jamie Overton and John Turner.
There are nine bowling options in all in the side, while Phil Salt will keep wicket rather than Cox, who is set to be behind the stumps for the Test team in New Zealand later in the winter.
West Indies: 1 Brandon King, 2 Evin Lewis, 3 Keacy Carty, 4 Shai Hope (capt and wk), 5 Sherfane Rutherford, 6 Shimron Hetmyer, 7 Alzarri Joseph, 8 Roston Chase, 9 Gudakesh Motie, 10 Matthew Forde, 11 Jayden Seales
England: 1 Phil Salt (wk), 2 Will Jacks, 3 Jordan Cox, 4 Jacob Bethell, 5 Liam Livingstone (capt), 6 Sam Curran, 7 Dan Mousley, 8 Jamie Overton, 9 Adil Rashid, 10 Jofra Archer, 11 John Turner
WEST INDIES WIN THE TOSS AND BOWL
So it will be the hosts who bowl first in the picturesque North Sound, giving England’s new-look batting lineup an early test.
