Analysis
The West Indies will be hopeful of putting up a fight against a young Indian team in the T20I series. Out of the three formats, the Windies have their best team in T20 cricket with the return of Nicholas Pooran, Johnson Charles and Akeal Hosein. The batting has been formidable but the bowling attack will be under the pump and hence Alzarri Joseph and Romario Shepherd will be crucial for the team’s chances.

On the other hand, Team India will field a young side which brings flamboyance and flair. The batting boasts of star performers for the recent IPL like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav. But despite having a towering batting lineup, the fast bowling attack seems inexperienced with Avesh Khan and Arshdeep Singh leading the line.
