This match will start at 7.00 pm. Team India, however, was seen under pressure under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma in the T20 series played against Bangladesh last month. The hosts had to face defeat in the T20 match against Bangladesh for the first time. Although Team India won the series 2–1. Now the return of regular captain Virat Kohli to the team has given the team stability in the top order. Apart from them, Rohit, Lokesh Rahul, and Shreyas Iyer are such batsmen, who have the ability to destroy any bowling attack.

Especially when there is a shortage of experienced bowlers in the West Indies team. Apart from batting, the bowling attack of the Indian team also looks very deadly. Returning to the team of experienced Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Mohammed Shami, the fast bowling attack of the hosts has been greatly strengthened. Bhubaneswar and Shami will also get good support from Deepak Chahar and Shivam Dubey, who have capitalized on the limited-overs chances against Bangladesh.
