Match Details:

The 5th game of the West Indies U19 Tri-Series will be played between West Indies Under-19s and England Under-19s at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua.

The match starts at 9:00 AM local time (1:00 PM GMT) (6:30 PM IST).

This game can be viewed on West Indies Cricket YouTube Channel and on Fan Code in India.

Preview:

The West Indies Under-19s and England Under-19s will be facing off for the 3rd time in this Tri-Nation Youth ODI series. The two teams won one game apiece when they faced off last week. However, the 3rd team of this competition, Sri Lanka, got better of both the teams over the last two days. This helped the Asian team to climb up to the top of the points table despite playing a game less than the other two. The match on Thursday will be a crucial one as it will be the last meeting on West Indies and England in the league stage.


Weather Condition/Report:

There is a great chance of this match between West Indies and England get troubled by the rain due to a slight possibility of showers.

The Sir Viv Richards Stadium in Antigua has been a low-scoring venue and runs came hardly even during the shortened match on Wednesday. As the game between West Indies and England on Thursday is the last at this venue, we might not see any major changes in the nature of the pitch.
