Kensington Oval

India defeated West Indies 1-0 in the two-match Test series when the second Test at Trinidad's Queen Park Oval was drawn on Tuesday with no action possible on the final day owing to rain. On day 5, the West Indies needed 289 runs to tie the series while India needed eight wickets to win. However, none did because of the venue's intense rain, which compelled both captains to end the game early.

Man of the match Mohammad Siraj did his career best performance by picking 5 wickets at the expense of 60 runs in 23.4 overs. With 16 points, India is now ranked second in the World Test Championship (WTC) 2023–25 points table, while West Indies is ranked fifth with 4 points.

Now both the teams will face each other in white ball cricket and action is shifted to Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados where first ODI will take place on 27th July. Rohit Sharma will lead the Men in blue, Shai Hope will take the command of the Caribbean team in place of Kraigg Brathwaite.

Mein in blue will like to keep the same winning spirit alive in the white ball format as well. Yashashvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, and Virat Kohli are outstanding. Return of Hardik Pandya and Surya Kumar Yadav will strengthen the middle order. In the bowling department Mohammad Siraj and Umran Malik will take the command of pace attack whereas Ravindra Jadeja and Yuzvendra Chahal will get the turn to spin the game. On the other hand West Indies continue with their poor show in batting and bowling. Despite playing at the home ground, Shai Hope’s team is not in a good shape.

India vs West Indies Match Toss Prediction

Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados doesn’t have a good batting track as there is issue in ball coming on the bat. At a slow pitch like this it's always tough to bat on when you will have very less short pitch and half pitch deliveries. In the second inning it gets more tough so the team winning the toss would like to bat first and put 280+ runs on the board.

India vs West Indies Top Team Batsmen

Looking at the recent form of Yashashvi Jaiswal, he will be the key player for India. After playing some brilliant knocks in the IPL, he smashed 171 runs in his debut test match and a fantastic fifty in the second test match. Another player to watch out for is Mr. 360 degree Surya Kumar Yadav who has the ability to play all around the ground and may trouble the West Indies players a lot.

West Indies team will rely on the opening batsmen Brandon King and Kyle Mayers. Team needs a good opening partnership with these two to put the challenging score on the board.

India vs West Indies Top Team Bowler

Mohammad Siraj will take the command of the Indian pace attack, and the team will rely on him for some early breakthrough. Yajuvendra Chahal may trouble the opponents with his spin bowling in the middle overs

The West Indies team will depend on some good spells from Alzarri Joseph. He has picked 16 wickets against India in 10 ODI matches.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win: India

Team India had an impressive performance in all formats of the game. They want to continue playing with a winning attitude in the white ball format as well. Outstanding players include Yashashvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. The middle order will be strengthened by Hardik Pandya and Surya Kumar Yadav's return. Mohammad Siraj, Umran Malik, Ravindra Jadeja and Yuzvendra Chahal have the ability to have control over Caribbean batters. West Indies, on the other hand, had a very disappointing season, even though they failed to qualify for the ODI World Cup. Having these in mind, Team India has several advantages over hosts and we predict an easy victory in this game.

• India to win @ 1.23
• West Indies to win @ 4.40
