Speaking at the end of the Windies’ training camp at the University of the West Indies Cave Hill Campus, Reifer said the squad probably contained the largest number of game changers of all of the teams.

Even though he acknowledged the pitches in England were good for batsmen, Reifer said he would be depending heavily on his bowlers to lead the charge.
