West Indies captain Roston Chase won the toss and elected to bat first. The Indian team will field three spinners, two fast bowlers, and one pace bowling all-rounder. Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, and Kuldeep Yadav form the spin department, while Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj will shoulder the fast bowling duties.

The Indian team will be seen in new attire for this match, as Apollo Tyres has acquired the jersey sponsorship after Dream11 withdrew. This will be the Indian team’s first match in the new jersey.

Playing XI for both teams:

India: Shubman Gill (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudarshan, Dhruv Jurel (wicketkeeper), Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.

West Indies: Roston Chase (captain), Tejnarayan Chanderpaul, John Campbell, Alick Athanaze, Brandon King, Shai Hope (wicketkeeper), Justin Greaves, Jomel Warrican, Khary Pierre, Johan Lyne, Jayden Seales.

This match between India and West Indies will prove to be crucial for both teams, especially for the Indian team, which is looking to advance in the series with a win.
