Topmost Picks for WI vs ENG Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – West Indies

• Romario Shepherd –  Romario Shepherd also offers lower-order boundary-striking, but will largely be used as a frontline seam bowler. The bowling all-rounder has 13 wickets in his last eight T20I matches.
• Akeal Hosein – Akeal Hosein’s left-arm spin will control the run rate after the powerplay.

Top Picks – England

• Jos Buttler – Buttler is one of the world's most destructive batters.
• Saqib Mahmood – Mahmood's impressive spell included three powerplay wickets and a stingy final over that limited the West Indies to a below-par total. 

Suggested Playing XI N0.1 for WI vs ENG Dream11 Team:

Jos Buttler(C), Nicholas Pooran(VC), Phil Salt, Brandon King, Evin Lewis, Liam Livingstone, Matthew Forde, Adil Rashid, Sam Curran, Andre Russell, Gudakesh Motie
