West Indies have won the toss and sent England in to bat in the fifth and final ODI in St Lucia.

Play is due to get underway shortly in clear, breezy conditions after rain overnight and early Saturday morning with England leading the series 2-1.

England have brought in Tom Curran for Liam Plunkett, who will sit out the match with a sore left foot. Alex Hales remains in the side after replacing injured opener Jason Roy (hamstring) in their 29-run victory in the fourth ODI in Grenada.

West Indies have named an unchanged team from that which won the second fixture in Barbados and came close in Grenada, despite bringing Andre Russell into their squad midway through the series.

West Indies: 1 Chris Gayle, 2 John Campbell, 3 Shai Hope (wk), 4 Darren Bravo, 5 Shimron Hetmyer, 6 Jason Holder (capt), 7 Carlos Brathwaite, 8 Ashley Nurse, 9 Devendra Bishoo, 10 Sheldon Cottrell, 11 Oshane Thomas

England: 1 Alex Hales, 2 Jonny Bairstow, 3 Joe Root, 4 Eoin Morgan (capt), 5 Ben Stokes, 6 Jos Buttler (wk), 7 Moeen Ali, 8 Chris Woakes, 9 Tom Curran, 10 Adil Rashid, 11 Mark Wood
