The England Women's team will begin a new era in white-ball formats under the talismanic leadership of Nat Sciver against the West Indies Women's team in the first T20I on Wednesday, May 21. This is also the first assignment for head coach Charlotte Edwards. It's a big summer ahead, and the hosts would be eager to start off on a winning note.
England will no doubt start as the favorites, but the West Indies have in recent times shown they are no pushovers when it comes to T20Is. Apart from Hayley Matthews, Qiana Joseph and Shemaine Campbelle have also shown good form with the bat in hand.
