SLC XI name an unchanged lineup from the 50 over game, while West Indies A continue to give match practice to their batsmen.
Carl Hooper is the major change, coming back to strengthen the bowling attack with his offspin to support Harper.
This should be close, though West Indies attack should get more from the pitch and this will make them start favourites.
