With hot weather forecast over the five scheduled days, there could be some long days in the field for both teams in this Test. Gary Ballance will add some grit and determination to Zimbabwe’s batting line-up but overall it will be hard for them against a good West Indies side. Our prediction for this First Test of the series is a victory for West Indies.
