England head coach Matthew Mott has urged fans to be patient with England's new-look white-ball team, considering it is work in progress and stressing that they have had only three opportunities together to play as a group. A new-look, revamped England side succumbed to a four-wicket defeat to West Indies in the third and final ODI to lose the series 2-1 after a miserable ICC Cricket World Cup campaign, which saw the then-defending champions win only three matches out of nine and finish at seventh place.

Sam Curran took three wickets and Jos Buttler scored a half-century to help England claim a six-wicket victory over West Indies in the second one-day international on Wednesday, levelling the three-match series at 1-1.
West Indies created history at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium on Sunday as they registered a thrilling four-wicket victory over England in the first ODI of their three-game series, with skipper Shai Hope emerging as a hero with his 16th ODI century. The Caribbean side chased down England's total of 325 with seven deliveries remaining on the back of a brilliant century from skipper Hope and in the process scored their highest ODI score ever at the iconic Antigua venue. It was also the West Indies' second-highest successful men's ODI run chase in their history, just five runs short than the 331/5 they managed when defeating Ireland in Malahide in 2019. It was a massive confidence boost for the West Indies, who failed to qualify for the recent ICC Men's Cricket World Cup in India and are looking to rebuild ahead of co-hosting the ICC Men's T20 World Cup alongside the USA next year.
