Match Prediction

After whitewashing the West Indies in the three-match ODI series, the Rohit Sharma-led India will lock horns with Kieron Pollard’s men in the three-T20I leg, starting Wedne😼sday, February 16.

India last played a T20I series against New Zealand i🃏n November last year and defeated them by a comprehensive margin of 3-0.

On the other hand, West Indies delivered a below-par performance in the recently-concluded ODI series as they lost all three games. However, the Men in Maroon will hope to start the T20I leg on a fresh note. They were splendiไd in their last T20I series as they defeated ℱEngland by 3-2.

Pitch report:

The pitch in Kolkata has always been a ܫbatting paradise as the ball comes nicely onto the bat. Fast bowlers are also likely to receive ample help from the surface in powerplay overs.

Due to the dew ♑factor, both captains can be expected to field first in case the coin falls in their favour.
