India vs West Indies 2019: 3rd ODI, Cuttack – Dream 11, Fantasy Tips, Predicted XI, Pitch Report And Injury Update; Much like T20I series, the three-match ODI series also came down to the wire, with both the teams securing one victory each. The final ODI in Cuttack is going to a thrilling contest with both the teams going for a kill. It is going to a fun Sunday for the cricketing fanatics with West Indies and Indian players set to give their best on the field for a series victory.

India have no concerns with their batting apart from the unfortunate run for the skipper Virat Kohli. The middle-order is doing a great job while Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul found their mojo back in the second ODI. However, the bowling department will once again be on their toes if the West Indies are chasing the target.

On the other hand, it has been a fine series so far for the Kieron Pollard-led side. They have no worries with their batting, but the bowling has been wayward in the second ODI. Surely, they would go into the deciding ODI with a different set of plans for various batsmen of India.

India vs West Indies 3rd ODI – Dream 11, Fantasy League Tips

First of all, it is crucial to select a team which has players who will surely play in the game. As they say in cricket, you don’t score any runs in the dressing room.

Similarly, a player who is not playing cannot score points for you. In fact, Dream 11 has brought a change in its rule by which you can alter your team even after the toss. Thus, you can pick your team according to the playing XI on both sides.

Secondly, it is pivotal to pick the right combination of captain and vice-captain. A captain gets twice the points whereas the deputy of the team will 1.5 times the points. Thus, it is imperative to select the in-form players as your respective captain and vice-captain.
