IND vs WI: Match Preview

After losing their recent series against Bangladesh, the West Indies will look to work on their errors to show some intent. Nicholas Pooran and his men will look to present a better show against an inexperienced Indian side. They have the players with the capability; it is just a matter of one good performance. 

Shai Hop, Brandon King, and skipper Pooran will lead the batting department while Rovman Powell will do the finishing duties. Jason Holder is back with the team, which will surely give the team a boost. Because he is a premier all-rounder, he gives the team the perfect balance. Alzarri Joseph and Akeal Hosein will lead the bowling attack.

On the other hand, the Indian team will be seen with a completely new set of players. The batting department will be led by skipper Dhawan. Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson, and Suryakumar Yadav will play in the middle-order. The only question is who will open with Dhawan? However, Ishan Kishan has a better chance.

Unfortunately, KL Rahul was tested positive on Thursday and has been ruled out of the series. So that is a big setback for the team. Speaking of the bowling combinations, Chahal, Shardul, Siraj and Prasidh Krishna are the first-choice opener. As per some reports, Ravindra Jadeja is likely to miss the first game due to a niggle. So it will be interesting to see, whether he will play or not. But overall, it will be a big challenge for the young Indian side.

India: Shikhar Dhawan (c), Ishan Kishan (wk), Sanju Samson, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Mohammad Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal, Prasidh Krishna.
