Eoin Morgan said he would have looked to bowl first as well. “We would have bowled first as well. There is a big covering of grass, which is unusual here. It’s normally bare and takes a bit of turn. We are unchanged as well. We have grown in confidence and we have shown character at different stages of the tournament.”

After winning his 10th toss in a row West Indies skipper Darren Sammy said: “We are going to bowl first. We saw the ladies play, looks like a good surface. No changes for us. We came to this tournament with a lot of confidence. We believed in each other and today we just have to take one more step and win the title. We have been inspired by our Under-19 boys and seeing the women win here was extra motivation.”

West Indies have won the toss and have opted to bowl first in the final of the World T20 2016.

Ian Bishop after having a look at the pitch in his report said, “The surface is a little discoloured and there are just few a footmarks from the women’s final that concluded a few minutes ago. There is a bit of brown grass and there are patches of green grass as well. The ball should come onto the bat nicely under lights. It’s a decent surface, so it should all come down to execution,”
