Watch: Team India's Unique Running Drill Ahead Of First T20I Against West Indies
Updated - 05 Dec 2019, 12:18 AM
India will be the firm favourites against West Indies in the upcoming T20I and ODI series. Both the teams will play three T20Is and as many ODIs this month. The T20I series will start on December 6 in Hyderabad. The Men in Blue have thoroughly dominated West Indies in recent years. In the most recent meeting between the two sides, India had completely outplayed West Indies.
Both the teams had locked horns against each in the Caribbeans right after the end of the World Cup. They played three T20Is, three ODIs and two Tests and India won all of them but the one ODI which was washed out. No surprises then that West Indies would find it even tougher to beat India in their own backyard.
But then again, the Caribbean outfit can never be taken lightly. They boast some of the best hitters in the world at the moment and can really spring a surprise or two in the upcoming series. Only time will tell whether the hosts live up to the expectations or the visitors finally register some much-needed victory.
