It is a nice pleasant morning with the sun out. Will there be any early morning moisture? Or will the surface aid the spinners with the sun baking down? Barbados hace a huddle before taking the field.
Pitch report: "Dimensions - 73 metres straight, 65 and 59 on the square. Looks very flat and firm, a couple of considerations because it is a morning start and also whether or not the pitch will slow down considerably because of the extreme heat," reckon Samuel Badree.
Chris Green: It's very easy to spend hours to try and find something, there is a lot of time left in this competition and we have come here to take up the challenge against the Barbados today. We have one change. Hayden Walsh comes in for Teddy Bishop.
Rovman Powell: We are gonna bowl, looks a good surface maybe a little bit of moisture. The games are very closely contested and it is important to win those key moments. We tried to mix the youngsters with experienced guys. We got 2 overseas spinners.
