ENG vs WI Dream Team, Fantasy Cricket Prediction For 2nd ODI Match: England will lock horns with West Indies during the 2nd ODI on Sunday and will aim to clinch the series after winning the series opener by a huge margin. Everything went in the hosts' favor as it was Harry Brook's first match as England's white-ball skipper. The openers gave the hosts a flying start as star middle-order batter Jacob Bethell once again became the star performer. England posted a mammoth target of 400 runs and West Indies failed to chase it down.

West Indies skipper Shai Hope won the toss and chose to bowl first since they entered this series after defeating Ireland while batting first. With everything at stake for both teams, whichever captain wins the toss will choose to bat first even though the teams chasing have won 18 matches at this venue and just eight teams have won while defending a target here.

The hosts have been seen struggling in the 50-over format recently as they too haven't been able to chase mammoth targets a lot of times but the visitors will aim to bounce back in all the departments. Sherfane Rutherford has also joined the West Indies side now that Gujarat Titans have been knocked out after losing the Eliminator. And that's why all eyes will be on players like Shai Hope, Brandon King, Keacy Carty, and Roston Chase to take the team across the line as they aim to level the series.
