England Women are all set to welcome West Indies Women for the much-anticipated ODI series, following their commanding performance in the recently concluded T20I leg. The hosts displayed complete dominance in the shortest format, securing a comprehensive 3-0 clean sweep over the visitors and entering the 50-over contest high on confidence.
With the ODI leg now on the horizon, England will look to carry forward their winning momentum and begin the series on a strong note. The team, under the leadership of Nat Sciver-Brunt, will aim to replicate their T20I form while fine-tuning their strategies for the longer format.
For West Indies, the ODI series presents a fresh opportunity to regroup and make a comeback. After a disappointing T20I outing, the Caribbean side will be eager to reset, adapt to the demands of the 50-over game, and challenge England with renewed determination.
West Indies Women tour of England 2025: 1st ODI
- Date and Time: May 30; 01:00 pm local/ 05:30 pm IST/ 12:00 pm GMT
- Venue: County Ground, Derby
County Ground Pitch Report:
The surface at Derby’s County Ground is known for its even-handed conditions, providing a fair contest between bat and ball. Early on, seamers are likely to benefit from the pitch’s assistance, making it tough for batters to play freely in the initial overs. As the game unfolds, the track is expected to aid spin, especially during the latter part of the match. Batters will need to use proactive footwork against the slower bowlers, as relying too heavily on defense might prove risky.
