Barbados Royals have won the toss and have opted to field

Jason Holder:
Traditionally we would like to chase, but it is an opportunity to put some runs on the board. We have been getting some good starts, it is a matter of taking deep. We have 4 changes.

Rovman Powell:
We gonna bowl first, the wicket is gonna get better later on. I think we played well in Antigua. They are a good unit and we will try and keep them to 180-190. Anything under 200 would be good. We have 2 changes

Pitch report:
It is a warm afternoon and the breeze is strong. We are playing on pitch 2 (match 6 was played here). Dimensions - 64 and 62 square and 69 metres down the ground. It is a batting paradise and the surface is rock hard. Important to take the pitch out of the equation, stay away from a length and try and hit the blockhole" reckons Niall O' Brien.
