West Indies vs India, 1st T20I: A Battle of Titans
When: August 3rd, 8:00 PM (9:30 AM local time).
Where: Tarouba, Trinidad's Brian Lara Stadium
What to expect: India scored 350+ runs batting first in the third ODI of the previous match at this location, so a similar batting-friendly pitch may be on offer.
Team news
India
Will India play Shubman Gill at No. 3 and rest Shubman Gill to give Jaiswal a chance to partner Ishan Kishan at the top of the order? Sanju Samson or Tilak for the middle order? Which pacer should be skipped out of the three wrist spin options? There are many selection-related issues for team management and skipper Hardik Pandya.
Probable XI: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ishan Kishan (wk), Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma/Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya (c), Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal/Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Umran Malik, Mukesh Kumar.
West Indies :
Nicholas Pooran, who missed the ODI series because of his Major League Cricket commitments, is back in the T20I lineup after scoring a game-winning 137 not out. The setup is strengthened by the participation of Shimron Hetmyer, Shai Hope, and Oshane Thomas, who is back in the pace role.
Probable XI: Kyle Mayers, Johnson Charles, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Shai Hope, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell (c), Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Obed McCoy, Oshane Thomas.
