IND vs WI Weather Report


A bit of cloud cover is expected on match day. However, no rain has been forecast and we should have a full game.

IND vs WI Pitch Condition


The wicket at the MA Chidambaram Stadium has generally favored the batsmen more especially during the first-half of a match. Spinners will play a big role in the middle overs.


IND Team News


The Indian selectors will have to choose between Manish Pandey and all-rounder Kedar Jadhav as one of the team’s middle-order batsmen. It will also be interesting to see whether captain Kohli decides to play both the wrist-spinners – Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal – or pick seam-bowling all-rounder Shivam Dube in place of one of them.

IND Key Players


India’s top three – Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul and Virat Kohli are the big guns in the batting line-up. Kohli was the leading run-getter in the preceding T20I series and he has an impressive ODI average of 76.64 against the West Indies. Mohammed Shami, Yuzvendra Chahal and Bhuvneshwar Kumar will be the main threats with the ball. Chahal is likely to trouble the West Indian batsmen the most as the pitch is expected to assist the spinners more.

IND Recent Form


India have shown impressive form in the game’s fifty-over format in recent times and have won nine of their last eleven completed matches. They have played just one ODI series since their semi-final loss at the ICC Cricket World Cup in England; a three-match series in the West Indies where they won 2-0.
