The pitch in Trinidad will be closely monitored ahead of the second Test. The Dominica played had a lot of turn and had uneven bounce as batters from both sides had problems against the turning ball. West Indies asked for a tuner which did not work to their advantage. Playing at home, they should ideally choose a track that suits their batting.
