England take on the West Indies later on Friday.

Thursday’s highly anticipated between India and New Zealand was abandoned without a ball being bowled. 

It was the fourth time in this World Cup that a match was washed out with a result. 

However Friday’s match between the hosts and a resurgent West Indies side is not expected to be affected by rain. 

Play gets underway at 1:30 pm UAE time.
