West Indies vs India Chance of Winning
The Men in Blue managed to stay alive in the series with a comfortable seven-wicket win in the third T20I. But the job isn't done yet as every match is a must-win for them. West Indies, on the other, only need to win one out of two games to clinch the series.
The third match saw the hosts win the toss and opt to bat first. Kyle Mayers and Brandon King put on a 55-run stand for the opening wicket but their innings didn't get the acceleration they needed. They were 123/5 in 17.1 overs when Rovman Powell stepped up and provided a solid finish. He smashed 40 off just 19 balls to push the total to 159. Kuldeep Yadav was the pick of the bowlers for India with 3 for 28 while Axar Patel bagged 1 for 24 off his four overs.
Chasing the target, India's both openers failed to make a mark. Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed on the second ball on his debut while Shubman Gill could only manage 6 off 11. Suryakumar Yadav came out and batted like his glorious self. He blasted 83 in just 44 deliveries to put India in commanding position. Tilak Varma struck an unbeaten 49 off 37 to help his side get over the line with 13 balls to spare.
Talking about the fourth T20I, India will be favourites with improved chances of winning compared to the last game.
- West Indies chance of winning @ 28%
- India chance of winning @ 72%

West Indies vs India Betting Odds
West Indies to score over 42.5 runs in the powerplay
The pitches in Florida are good for batting and the West Indies top order comprising Kyle Mayers, Brandon King and Johnson Charles should enjoy batting here. Nicholas Pooran has also been in top form. Back West Indies to score over 42.5 runs in the first six overs.
India to score over 60.5 runs in the first 8 overs
India's Shubman Gill hasn't done well on slow surfaces but should fire on a good batting deck. Yashasvi Jaiswal is naturally aggressive while Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma are their best batters in the series. Betting on India to score over 60.5 runs in the first eight overs seems a good option.
West Indies vs India Top Team Batter
Nicholas Pooran to be West Indies’ best batter
Nicholas Pooran struck 10-ball 20 in the previous game. In the first two games, he hammered 41 off 34 and 67 off 40. Pooran has been in magnificent form with the bat, smashing over 1300 runs in T20 cricket this year at a strike rate of 161 while averaging 40. Bet on Pooran to be the top batter for West Indies.
Suryakumar Yadav to be India’s best batter
Suryakumar Yadav returned to his best with a scintillating 83 off 44 deliveries in the third game. One of the best in the business, SKY has 1780 runs in T20I cricket at an average of 46 while striking at 174. He has three hundreds and 14 fifties at this level. Bet on Suryakumar to be the top batter for India.
West Indies vs India Top Team Bowlers
Alzarri Joseph to be West Indies’ best bowler
The right arm fast bowler was the standout performer for the hosts in the last game, picking 2 for 25 in four overs. Alzarri bagged 2 for 28 in the second game as well. He has 26 wickets from 15 T20 internationals at a strike rate of 13.3. Back Joseph to be West Indies' top bowler.
Kuldeep Yadav to be India’s best bowler
The left arm wrist spinner has constantly troubled the Windies batters on this tour. He took seven wickets in three ODIs and picked 3 for 28 in the previous T20I. Kuldeep has 50 wickets in T20I cricket from just 30 games at an economy of 6.70. Bet on Kuldeep to be India's best bowler.
Our Prediction
Favorites to win: India
India finally managed to put up a strong performance and they should carry that momentum into this game. The pitches in Florida are better for batting and that should help India display their batting prowess. The spin bowling attack should be effective against the Windies batters here as well. We predict India to win the third T20I.
- West Indies to win - 2.98
- India to win - 1.39
