Darry Sammy has admitted that Ottis Gibson will be key if the West Indies are to succeed against England this summer.
Sammy will captain the side during a three-match test series starting later this month and claims that coach Gibson will be key in exploiting weaknesses in Andrew Strauss' side.
Gibson was part of the England coaching staff for over two years before taking control of the West Indies team.
Sammy said: "They are No1 in the world so whatever weakness they have we will try to exploit it.
"We have a good coach in Ottis so I know he will make sure all the information in the dressing room is quite clear. The experience he has gained by playing in England will be a massive asset to us in the team."
West indies will play a practice match against Sussex starting on Saturday.
