West Indies have a relatively small bench strength when it comes to the red-ball format of the game. The Caribbean side will be heading into the series with a 13-man squad which will see players like Kyle Mayers, Kraigg Braithwaite, John Campbell, and others back in action. Eyes will be on Alzarri Joseph and Jason Holder who had a relatively good tour of India recently in the ODIs and T20I matches.

West Indies have made a few changes from the team that faced England two years back. Roston Chase, Rakheem Cornwall, Shane Dorrich, Shannon Gabriel, Chemar Holder, and Raymon Reifer are not a part of the squad while Joshua Da Silva, Anderson Philip, Jayden Seales and Veerasammy Permaul are the new additions to the squad.
West Indies pitches are known to be green and bouncy pitches and thus the natural focus of the West Indies team would be to bank heavily on their pacers. It can be predicted that the Caribbean side will field four pacers and a solitary spinner to bolster their bowling department.
West Indies Predicted XI: Jermaine Blackwood, John Campbell, Kraigg Braithwaite (c), Sharmarh Brooks, Jason Holder, Kyle Mayers, Joshua Da Silva (wk), Alzarri Joseph, Jayden Seales, Kemar Roach, Veerasammy Permaul
