Hello and welcome to our live blog for the 2016 ICC World Twenty20 final between England and West Indies at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Both the teams are chasing their second title. Which one will get it?

Toss coming up in ten minutes, stay tuned!

Teams:

West Indies (From): Johnson Charles, Chris Gayle, Marlon Samuels, Lendl Simmons, Andre Russell, Denesh Ramdin(w), Dwayne Bravo, Darren Sammy(c), Carlos Brathwaite, Samuel Badree, Sulieman Benn, Ashley Nurse, Jerome Taylor, Evin Lewis, Jason Holder

England (From): Jason Roy, Alex Hales, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan(c), Jos Buttler(w), Ben Stokes, Moeen Ali, Chris Jordan, David Willey, Adil Rashid, Liam Plunkett, James Vince, Sam Billings, Liam Dawson, Reece Topley

The in-form Jason Roy and the dangerous Alex Hales are sent back to the dug-out faster than the English team and fans would've liked. Samuel Badree and Andre Russell are responsible for the early demolition. West Indian women continue their celebrations, from the stands now. The faces in the English dug out have already dropped. Hales is still furious with himself.

Darren Sammy, West Indies captain, won the toss and elected to bowl in the final of ICC World T20 2016 at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Both teams - England and West Indies - are coming in with an unchanged Plaaying XI. Eoin Morgan, too, said that he would've bowled first had he won the toss.PS: For the 10th successive time, Sammy got lucky with the toss

Teams:

England (Playing XI): Jason Roy, Alex Hales, Joe Root, Eoin Morgan(c), Jos Buttler(w), Ben Stokes, Moeen Ali, Chris Jordan, David Willey, Adil Rashid, Liam Plunkett

West Indies (Playing XI): Johnson Charles, Chris Gayle, Marlon Samuels, Lendl Simmons, Andre Russell, Denesh Ramdin(w), Dwayne Bravo, Darren Sammy(c), Carlos Brathwaite, Samuel Badree, Sulieman Benn

Ian Bishop, former West Indies pacer, inspected the pitch at the Eden Gardens before the final and said, "The surface is a little discoloured and there are just few a footmarks from the women's final that concluded a few minutes ago. There is a bit of brown grass and there are patches of green grass as well. The ball should come onto the bat nicely under lights. It's a decent surface, so it should all come down to execution,"
