England’s campaign has been smooth, with clinical wins after surviving a scare from Bangladesh in their opener. Danielle Wyatt-Hodge leads the batting with 135 runs, though the middle order remains largely untested. Their bowling attack has shown versatility, with the ability to rotate between spin-heavy and seam-heavy options. West Indies, after a 10-wicket loss to South Africa, bounced back by chasing down targets against Scotland and Bangladesh in under 13 overs. Deandra Dottin has been in excellent form, while Hayley Matthews returned to her best in the last match, though Stafanie Taylor’s knee injury remains a concern.
With Dubai offering more bounce than Sharjah, the game presents an interesting challenge for both teams’ bowlers. England will want to extend their unbeaten streak and secure their seventh straight semifinal appearance, while West Indies are seeking their first semifinal spot since 2018.
