Two-time former champions England and West Indies will vie for supremacy in their Group ‘C’ encounter of the T20 World Cup at the Wankhede Stadium today. Harry Brook-led England survived a big scare when they squeezed past Nepal by four runs at the same venue on Sunday, while Shai Hope’s West Indies started their campaign with a 35-run win over Scotland at Kolkata on Saturday.

Ahead of a re-match between the finalists of the 2016 T20 World Cup at the very same venue, WI head coach Sammy admitted that Mumbai is a lucky place for his team and is hoping his charges can repeat last time’s heroics once more.
