West Indies Predicted Playing XI:

1. Evin Lewis:

The southpaw had a brilliant series so far. Carrying his form from Afghanistan series, he gave a perfect start to West Indies in both the games played in Hyderabad and Thiruvananthapuram.

2. Lendl Simmons:

The experienced opener of West Indies showed what he is capable of doing for the team. He played a match-winning knock in Thiruvananthapuram and would be eager to play in Mumbai. Last time when he played for West Indies against India at Wankhede Stadium, he knocked out the Indian team from ICC T20I World Cup 2016.

3. Brandon King:

The youngster looked decent in the middle in the first game, but he didn’t get the chance to prove in the second game. Once again, he will be the floater for the team depending on the situation of the game. The youngster can turn the tables with his big-hitting skills,

4. Shimron Hetmyer:

The stylish southpaw also showed great resilience in the middle for his team. In the first game, he scored a brilliant fifty and also played a cameo in the second game to help the team level the series scoreline. He will once again be the centre of attraction during the final game.

5. Nicholas Pooran:

The left-handed batsman made the difference right in his first game after the 4-match ban. His 38-run knock off 18 balls helped his side to seal a comfortable win in the second T20I game at Thiruvananthapuram. He will be one of the players to watch out.

6. Kieron Pollard:

This lad would feel like coming back home. Having played for over a decade for Mumbai Indians, he had enough knowledge of Wankhede conditions. The skipper would like to make this a memorable trip, as it had been a long time for West Indies to win a bilateral series against India.

7. Jason Holder:

Holder is playing a brilliant role for the team. He is picking those key wickets for the team and also scoring runs when it matters the most. Once again, he will be vital for the West Indies to make things fall in place.

8. Khary Pierre:

The left-arm spinner showed great composure in the middle in the second T20I. He bowled a brilliant 2-over spell, in which, he gave just 11 runs and picked the crucial wicket of KL Rahul. Khary would like to repeat the show for the team.

9. Hayden Walsh:

The leg-spinner impressed one and all with his control on the ball. Despite bowling to the best batsmen in the business, Walsh never let that loose. He would like to extract the bounce and turn from the Wankhede deck.

10. Sheldon Cottrell:

As always, Sheldon Cottrell has been brilliant for the team. He wasn’t allowing the batsman to go after him and keeping them mum in the crease. His 24 balls are once again going to be crucial for the team.

11. Kesrick Williams:

Well, he is the latest person who got enough popularity in India. After being the victim of Virat Kohli in the first game, Kesrick Williams gave it back with his silent celebrations in the second game. Besides that, he bowled exceptionally well in the death overs at Thiruvananthapuram.
