Team India, who fought back to secure a convincing win, after some early mishaps in the opening fixture, will look to seal the series when they face off Windies in the second game on November 6 (Tuesday) at Lucknow.

Meanwhile, Windies have a lot of positives to take going into the second game which will be the first international game in that stadium. Moreover, India also may not know the conditions or the wicket. Thus, in a way, it is an away game for both the sides.

India will have to make a forced change as Umesh Yadav is likely to miss the game. Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who has exceedingly well in the recent past will slot in his place. Otherwise, they are likely to retain the same XI going into this game. On the other hand, Windies will have to sort their batting problem going into this game.

Kuldeep Yadav single-handedly rattled their middle-order. However, they have the firepower to turn things back. It will be an exciting encounter with both the sides having some exciting talents in their ranks.

Weather Forecast

Ekana hasn’t hosted a domestic limited-overs game yet, and might just throw a virgin pitch that could potentially neutralise India’s home advantage. Dew is going to be a factor again with early winter starting to set in, in northern India.

Furthermore, it should be cool in Lucknow in the evening by the time the game commences and so the players will find it a bit easier after playing in Kolkata’s humidity.

It is a do-or-die game for Windies while India will look to wrap up the series in Lucknow with one match still to go.
