So we go to Barbados for the decider. Our batting needs to step up. Too many holes. All batters need to put their hands up and perform.
Impressed with Rutherford and his maturity with the bat. Hope played well. '
Kudos England, your captain is back in form.

Yep comprehensively outplayed today. Can't help but feel we are carrying Carty and Cariah, who occupy two important spots in the team. I never thought I'd say this, but I'd rather have Chase at this point.

Sinclair should be in this squad.

Where to start:
Curran should be given the new ball in ODI's for the next 8 years, boy is a genius.
Buttler's captaincy was superb, clearly in great nick with the bat and oozing confidence.
Well at least Rehan was consistent, literally the exact same bowling figures as the first ODI, even down to the one maiden. 10-1-40-2!! And Atkinson again looking more than useful. Salt makes starts and doesn't go on, becoming a theme.
Carse is still Arse though.

Indeed
I think Chase will play ahead of Cariah in Barbados.
Carty was in poor form domestically, and has shown so far that this isn't the right format for him, Dessie needs to take responsibility for that.

Thought most of the criticism was about his batting

Indeed, anything he does with his bowling is a bonus (and he did bowl one horrendous over in that spell).

1-1. We gave West Indies a chance to win but we will dominate the series now

Are they young, average age over 26. That XI would fail the NCCA age limit to play together next season. (Combined age of youngest 8 to be 200 or less as at 1st April).

Norwood's on Fire
Just seems to be the latest scapegoat to me. Love the guy but his batting has obviously underwhelmed of late. A bit unlucky on Sunday mind

We’re gonna thrash you guys in the final
Think you might be looking through gold tinted lenses there
FBU
International Debutant
He misses out on the vice-captaincy...... also Crawley, who was captain against Ireland.
Tests - Stokes, Pope
ODIs - Buttler, Curran
T20s - Buttler, Ali

He's been somewhere between poor and horrible for some time now so good to see him perform again.
Wicket-keeping duties aside, having a gun white ball player coming in at number six always feels like a bit of a waste.

Norwood's on Fire
Made sense when you had Roy, Bairstow, Root, Morgan, Stokes.
May need a rethink depending on how things go.

We haven't won an ODI series against England since 1998. Hope it changes today
