ENG vs WI 14th T20I ICC T20 World Cup 2021 Match Preview:
The 14th match, Group 1 of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, 2021, will be played between England and West Indies at the venue of Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai on Saturday.
In a repeat of the T20 World Cup 2016 final, West Indies will look to start their title defense with a win. England, meanwhile, have grown in leaps and bounds in white-ball formats and will start the tournament as one of the favorites.
However, West Indies aren’t pushovers by any means and should fancy their chances of a third T20 World Cup title. With both teams keen to start their campaigns with a win, a cracking game beckons in Dubai.
Jos Buttler looks in great shape at the moment and his role will be crucial for Three Lions at the top of the order. Eoin Morgan’s form is a bit concern for the team management, and he will be hopeful of delivering well in this World Cup.
Holding the tag of two-time T20 World Cup Champions, West Indies are in a spot of bother at the moment, having lost their warm-up matches against Pakistan and Afghanistan. They have got real match winners in every spot and should know how to bounce back. It will be interesting to find out who wins the battle between 50-over champions and 20-over champions.

ENG vs WI 14th T20I ICC T20 World Cup 2021 Match Pitch Report:
The pitch at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium is a decent one to bat on, with 170 being a good total at the venue. The pacers should get some extra bounce and movement early on, with the batters having to bide their time in the middle. Although there isn’t much turn available off the surface, the spinners will look to make use of the skewed dimensions of the ground. Wickets in hand, as always, will be key, with both teams likely to prefer chasing upon winning the toss.

ENG
