England (ENG)
The England team has seen a lot of ups and downs in this T20 World Cup 2024. The team won two out of four matches in the league stage, while they lost one and one match was canceled due to rain. At one time it seemed very difficult for England to reach the Super 8, but in the end the team managed to qualify. But this match against West Indies is going to be very tough. In such a situation, Jos Buttler will try to go with his best XI in this match.
