England will be pleased with their batting performances after a forgetful Ashes with captain Joe Root leading the pack. The right-hander has so far scored two centuries in both the Tests and will aim to continue his rich form in the third Test too.
Dan Lawrence, Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes have also got runs under their belts. Meanwhile, Joe Root is just 116 runs shy of touching the 10,000 Test runs mark. He will be the 14th player to do so and the first since Younis Khan in 2017. Root is currently on 9,884 runs.

Meanwhile, West Indies have shown great character on both occasions to resist England. If Nkrumah Bonner’s 123 in 355 balls was an example in the first Test, captain Kraigg Brathwaite and Jermain Blackwood took the honours in the second to frustrate the visitors.
Root has bright memories of this ground. The last time Root played in Grenada was in 2015 as his 182 helped England beat West Indies by nine wickets. It was also the last time Grenada had hosted a Test match. However, England will miss Ollie Robinson in this Test due to his recurrent back injury.
On the other hand, West Indies are yet to win a Test match in three attempts on this ground. The inaugural Test match at this ground was a high-scoring draw in 2002 powered by Chris Gayle’s double hundred against New Zealand.
In 2009, Bangladesh recorded a rare but famous Test win although it came against a second-string West Indies side. Bangladesh won the Test by four wickets.
The West Indies vs England Test series is also a part of the ongoing ICC World Test Championship. West Indies and England occupy the last two spots in the ICC World Test Championship table and both teams badly need points to go up the ladder.?
