The wicket in Barbados is slow and tough for batting. The last game was a prime example of it, as the ball was keeping low and spinners were getting square turn. Seamers can extract movement with the new ball, and the batting conditions are expected to be challenging throughout the game. However, with rain predicted, batting second can be ideal.
