Best Picks for England vs West Indies 1st Test

Joe Root: One of the best test batters in modern-day cricket, Root has an excellent record playing against the West Indies. He has a batting average of 53.13 in 14 games and has struck out 5 hundreds and 5 fifties against the Caribbean team in test cricket. 

Kraigg Braithwaite: The skipper of West Indies has scored over 1000 runs against England in red-ball cricket in 15 matches. While he has hit 459 in six games played in England at an average of 48.57.  

Jason Holder: The all-rounder has scored 641 runs with bat and took 37 wickets with the ball in 14 test games he has played against England.  

James Anderson: The only fast bowler to take 700 test wickets is currently 13 wickets short of claiming 1000 wickets in all forms of the game, and given his record against West Indies, he will try his best to secure as many wickets as possible to reach that mark.
