West Indies come into this series on the back of drawing their three-match ODI series with Ireland 1-1 after they won the third game by 197 runs on DLS after making their second-highest ODI total, 385-7.
Having failed for the first time to qualify for the 50-over World Cup, in 2023, two-time World Cup winners West Indies are especially eager to qualify so for the 2027 edition in Africa. The top eight teams in the ODI world rankings at the end of March 2027 will qualify automatically.
So every ODI over the next 22 months is potentially crucial for both these teams: West Indies currently stand ninth in the world rankings, England eighth.
England themselves are needing to turn around their 50-over fortunes. This is the first match of Harry Brook's official tenure as white-ball captain after Jos Buttler stood down after England lost all their games in the ICC Champions Trophy.
Brook is not that experienced a 50-over cricketer, having only played 41 games in his professional career, 26 of which have been ODIs. But Rob Key, England men's managing director, believes that Brook "has an excellent cricketing brain and a clear vision that will help drive us towards winning more series and major global tournaments."
This three match series promises to be a heavy-hitting affair. Here's our guide to how to watch England v West Indies 1st ODI 2025 at Edgbaston live streams from anywhere.
