Pitch Report
A competitive pitch beckons in Antigua with some help available for the bowlers. Apart from the extra bounce and swing early on for the pacers, there is enough in this surface to keep the spinners interested.
The pitch should slow down as the game progresses, although the batsmen should find value for their shots once they get themselves in.
Both teams will look to bat first upon winning the toss, with either of them unlikely to prefer batting on Day 5.
