Can't see Gayle playing another test. Can't even run for 2's anymore. No way he's fit for a 5 dayer.

WI will score 350+ for sure if they bat first and can get Ireland out cheaply.Maybe Gayle gets another 200 you never know

I would like Even Lewis to get at least one 100 in the tour but unlikely

That team isn't scoring 320 plus consistently so no way they trouble England.

sure, not consistently...but they can win 1-2 among the 5 matches when Gayle-Lewis fire or when England collapse

very likely imo...England ODI bowling is poor

Three of the matches will be rained off.

only available place is at no. 6 (Blackwood's place)
Bravo-Hope-Chase is a solid 3-4-5 in most conditions

The bowling worries me more tbh. Without Narine there's no mystery at all and it has no real pace. I also can't see Gayle et all being too enamoured with day night matches at the end of September. So I don't have huge expectations of our fielding.
I'm looking forward to seeing Evin Lewis, he was in ridiculous form during the CPL but hasn't translated that to ODIs consistently yet. Above all I want to see what Sunil Ambris brings to the table with bat and gloves, especially given Dowrichs struggles.

Not yet. If he scores big in the FC season then possibly because they like his character. But his FC career so far has been as bad as his List A form has been excellent.

Will Ambris keep or Shai Hope?

I imagine it'll be Ambris if he plays, Hope if he doesn't. You named a team above with them both playing but Hope keeping which I find unlikely.

Yeah, getting Sharjeel'd by Evin Lewis is a not-unlikely possibility.

Don't they have a terrible weakness against any decent legspin? IIRC both Rashid Khan and Adil Rashid destoyed them in their last few ODIs.
WI have Bishoo if they want to use him.
