England endured mixed fortunes during their one-day international series against West Indies, which ended in a 2-2 draw.
Jason Roy is making brilliant progress and may be on the verge of Test cricket recognition while Eoin Morgan is an excellent captain, but Tom Curran did not get a real opportunity to progress.
As the World Cup draws closer, Sportsmail's DAVID LLOYD offers his player ratings from the series.
England captain Eoin Morgan enjoyed a fine one-day international series in West Indies
JASON ROY 8.5/10: Making brilliant progress. I have an inkling the penny has dropped and he’ll become a contender for Test cricket this summer.
JONNY BAIRSTOW 6: Not in the greatest form but showed his character in Grenada to help set up that epic total with a half-century. Was bowled again in the last game.
ALEX HALES 7: He’s a very canny player who gets himself in and then accelerates. He will push the opening pair all the way for a World Cup place.
Alex Hales has proved himself to be a canny player and could yet earn a World Cup place
JOE ROOT 7.5: Don’t worry about his last couple of dismissals. He’s a complete cricketer. Fastest England batsman to 5,000 one-day international runs. Busy and doesn’t need to blast it.
