England to miss Jos Buttler in ODI series; Liam Livingstone steps up as captain

England will be without their regular ODI captain, Jos Buttler, who has been sidelined with a calf injury since the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 in June. Taking on the leadership role, Liam Livingstone will captain the team in Buttler’s absence, marking a significant opportunity for him to lead the English squad. England’s last ODI series against Australia at home ended in a narrow 3-2 loss, adding pressure to perform well in this upcoming series against the West Indies.

West Indies make key change with Shimron Hetmyer’s inclusion

West Indies, led by Shai Hope, are aiming for a bounce-back performance after their 2-1 ODI and T20I series defeats in Sri Lanka. Cricket West Indies has made a single change to their ODI squad, bringing in left-handed batter Shimron Hetmyer in place of Alick Athanaze. Hetmyer’s inclusion adds depth to the middle order, which has struggled with consistency in recent matches. His presence is expected to stabilize and strengthen West Indies’ batting lineup.

Preparations for the Champions Trophy 2025

With the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 approaching, the England-West Indies ODI series holds strategic importance. Both teams will aim to fine-tune their lineups and address gaps, making this series a critical opportunity to assess form and build momentum.
