Against India’s powerful spin attack, West Indies batters could not do much in batting. Opener Kyle Mayers got out in the 3rd over itself for 2 runs. Brandon King hit 17 runs for the team. Alick Athanaze and Shai Hope supported the batting with 22 and 43 respectively.

With a low target at the front in IND vs WI 1st ODI, India shuffled their batting order a little. Instead of captain Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, and Shubman Gill opened the innings for the team. Kishan, who showed good batting form in the Test series, slammed 52 runs.

Toss Prediction for IND vs WI Match

If India wins the toss, they might bat first this time. India won the toss and chose to bowl first in the previous game. Since they are a dominating side against West Indies, they might opt to bat first this time and test their young batters.

West Indies might stick to batting first as they had a good bowling show in the 2nd innings in the previous game.
