The sides are not as depleted as the media make out....

If we're to go by the last two 20/20s played by England and West Indies, both against India, this could be the respective teams:

Eng - Kieswetter, Hales, Stokes, Bopara, Bairstow, Samit, Buttler, Bresnan, Swann, Dernbach, Anderson.

WI - Charles, Bascombe, Dwayne Smith, Samuels, Hyatt, Sammy, Barnwell, Russell, Christian, Bishoo, Fidel.

If those are the teams chosen from the squads, then England will have eight of 11 who played in the last 20/20 international, and the Windies will have six of 11 who played in the last 20/20 international.
