The fixture will be crucial for both teams as it’s a do-or-die fixture. A victory for the hosts in the third T20I means West Indies will clinch the series by taking a lead. On the other hand, the Indian team will put their every effort to save the series by clinching the third T20I. A win in this fixture will keep them alive in the race of series triumph. But they will then have to win the next two T20Is as well to ensure a complete triumph over West Indies on their home turf.
WI vs IND 3rd T20I: Teams Preview
West Indies Preview :
Boosted by their recent heroic defense of a mere 37 runs off the final five overs, the West Indies march into this fixture brimming with confidence. Akeal Hosein, Obed McCoy, and Jason Holder showcased impeccable ball control. Their brilliance with the ball helped Windies to restrict India to a below-the-par total. However, the Caribbean team needs to bolster their batting attack if they aim for a series win. Nicholas Pooran, Brandon King, and Rovman Powell displayed aggression by amassing crucial runs.
Powell’s 67 runs off 40 balls was the standout performance for the Windies. While Pooran & Rovman’s 57-run stand for the fourth wicket was no less than a delight to watch. However, their lower-middle order struggled to get going & were dismissed for ducks. It was Joseph & Hossein’s crucial cameos in the death overs that helped Windies to chase the target & register another win at a trot.
There could be changes in their playing XI as Alzarri Joseph has sustained an injury & is set to miss the fixture. Shai Hope & Oshane Thomas could feature in the playing XI. If they manage to replicate the performance from their last fixture then a series win won’t be a dream for hosts.
India Preview:
Men in Blue has a puzzle to solve as their batting lineup has failed miserably to deliver in the last two T20Is. Their performance with the bat was below the mark as they posted a meager 152 runs total in their last fixture. Batting first they failed to get a good start with Shubman Gill & Suryakumar Yadav losing early wickets. It was Tila Verma’s brilliant (51 off 41) runs knock that steadied India’s innings. Hardik Pandya & Axar Patel tried to anchor the innings in the middle order but failed to convert their starts into good scores. As a result, India found itself reeling at 152 in the alotted 20 overs.
In reply, their bowling too failed to defend a total of 152 runs. They got early wickets but failed to stop the assault by Nicholas Poora & Rovmann Powell. Chahal tried to bring India back into the fixture by sclaping two wickets in the 16th over but Pandya’s wrong decision in the 19th over meant that India lost the fixture by two wickets. Heading into this crucial fixture India should aim to rectify their past mistakes & emerge victorious in the third T20I as a loss will ensure a series defeat.
We can expect a few changes in the Playing XI. Kuldeep Yadav who missed the last fixture due to an injury can come back into the attack. While Ishan who has done wicket-keeping in all the T20is could be rested with Jasiwal coming in the Playing XI.
