India Prepared To Add More Pain To West Indies

India vs. the West Indies: India Prepared To Add More Pain To the Frustrated West Indies

A three-match ODI series between West Indies and India will start on Friday.

At Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad, West Indies and India will begin a three-game One-Day International series on Friday. The visitors are favorites to defeat the underperforming host team. Even without their star players. India has chosen to rest their usual skipper Rohit Sharma. The main batter Virat Kohli, wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, all-arounder Hardik Pandya, and pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah following their 2-1 series victory in England. This gives bright and motivated auxiliary players the chance to benefit from the absence of the stars at the expense of the team, which was swept 3-0 by Bangladesh in Guyana the week prior.

Both the Providence pitch quality against the Bangladeshis and the early start time. According to West Indies skipper Nicholas Pooran, conspired to favor the team bowling first too much.

That conjecture ignores the fact that the two-time World Cup champions have a long history of consistently performing poorly in the 50 overs-per-side formats.

It’s likely that the playing surface will be similar to the bowler-friendly circumstances in Guyana given the erratic weather leading up to the series opener.

India has an embarrassment of riches, not least in the bowling department where they have the talent and variety to take advantage of the conditions and a weak West Indies batting lineup even with the quintet of elite players choosing to take a break.

Both wrist spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and pacer Mohammed Siraj are anticipated to lead the charge to apply pressure on their rivals. Many of whom were judged to be temperamentally and technically unsuited to Bangladesh’s spin-dominated approach.

The return of Jason Holder is the only positive development for the home team in the days following the conclusion of the Bangladesh series.

The all-rounder and former skipper will be expected to lead with both bat and ball after being rested for the series against the Netherlands, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.

However, pressure is mounting on current captain Pooran to lead his team out of the rut they seem to have fallen into after their 2-0 series victories in tests and T20 Internationals against Bangladesh.

His highest ODI score of 73 last Saturday at the Guyana National Stadium put an end to a string of subpar performances.

To get even close to recording the kind of totals that may genuinely challenge their opponents. The West Indies will need to put all of their resources into it, especially opening batter Shai Hope.

Due to the absence of some prominent players for India. Players like all-rounder Deepak Hooda and batters Ishan Kishan, Shubman Gill, and Suryakumar Yadav are anticipated to take the spotlight.

Incentives to perform are many with the next T20 World Cup campaign just a few months away in Australia and the following 50-over World Cup being hosted by India in 2023.

The sides will switch formats but remain in Trinidad for the opening T20 International at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba after the three ODIs are completed at Queen’s Park Oval.

The five-match series will then end in the United States with two matches at Lauderhill in Florida before moving on to St. Kitts for two games.

Teams (probable):

West Indies – Nicholas Pooran (captain), Shai Hope (wicketkeeper), Kyle Mayers, Brandon King, Keacy Carty, Rovman Powell, Jason Holder, Alzarri Joseph, Akeal Hosein, Gudakesh Motie, Jayden Seales.

India

– Shikhar Dhawan (Captain), Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Deepak Hooda, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal, Avesh Khan.
