England to take on West Indies in ICC world cup 2015 practice match tomorrow on 9 February at Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. The match is scheduled to start at 14:30 local time.

Both West Indies and England will be looking to get practice enough before entering into main world cup event. Recently West Indies lost test series and ODIs against South Africa whereas England was defeated in the tri-series final. So both sides will be looking to get winning momentum from this world cup warm up match.

England’s top batting order is in good form that we saw in triangular series. Both Moeen Ali and Ian Bell played good innings in all matches especially against India. The middle order and lower order batting is a concern area for English side as players are failing to score runs. Gary Ballance and Alex Hales will have chance to bat on the tour for the first time.

Eoin Morgan needs to make some changes in the batting line-up and Gary Ballance and Hales are good options for him to make middle order strong.

West Indies are also facing same problem that England have as their middle order is also not making runs. At the top Gayle, Smith and Samuels are good enough to put pressure on the opponent but once again middle order is missing Dwayne Bravo and Kieron Pollard.

Both these guys are not in the squad and current players Darren Bravo, Darren Sammy and Denesh Ramdin are not in good form. So these players need to play in warm-up matches.
