West Indies Announce Unchanged Playing Eleven For Second Test Against England
West Indies Playing Eleven: West Indies have announced that they will be fielding an unchanged playing eleven for their second Test against England at Trent Bridge, starting on Thursday. West Indies were thrashed by an innings and 114 runs at the Lord's in the farewell Test of James Anderson. But the visitors have shown a habit of fighting back, especially when they won the second Test against Australia at Brisbane earlier this year after suffering a heavy defeat at Adelaide.
West Indies have concerns over fast bowler Shamar Joseph’s availability after he appeared to suffer a hamstring niggle at the Lord's and had to pull out mid-day. But it is believed that Joseph just suffered from a cramp, so he retains his place in the playing eleven for the Nottingham Test.
"The pitch looks a good cricket pitch, to be honest. Looks good for batting, the bowlers will get a bit of assistance as well. We think the guys had a long rest, unfortunately, the (first) game finished quite early, and as I say Shamar is doing well. I believe 100% in the 11 that played the first Test and we're backing them 100%," said captain Kraigg Brathwaite in the pre-match press conference.
