India vs West Indies, WI Playing 11 vs IND (Predicted), 4th T20I, India Tour Of West Indies 2022. India made a brilliant comeback in the third T20I match to win by 6 wickets and lead the series 2-1. Both teams are all set to play in Florida after the visa issues were resolved by the interference of the Guyana president.
India has a great chance to win the series in this match and test some of their fringe players in the last T20I match. West Indies on the other hand need to win this match to keep the series alive and take it to the decider.
In the 3rd T20I, West Indies started off on a good note with Kyle Mayers scoring 73 runs off 50 balls and forming a 50-run partnership with Brandon King (20 runs) and Nicholas Pooran (22 runs) for the first 2 wickets. Shimron Hetmyer (20 runs) and Rovman Powell (23 runs) scored some quick-fire to take their team to a good score of 164/5 in the 20 overs.
Obed McCoy and Alzarri Joseph were taken for a lot of runs in the last game. Akeal Hosein was their most consistent player this series picking 3 wickets at an economy rate of 5.33 RPO. Dominic Drakes and Jason Holder will look to make their mark with the ball in this match.
West Indies needs to win this game to stay alive in the series as a loss here would mean India takes an unassailable lead in the series. They demolished Bangladesh in the T20I series right before the India series but the difference in quality is for everybody to see. West Indies needs to come up with a plan to dismiss Suryakumar Yadav early in the innings.
West Indies trusted Dominic Drakes with the ball ahead of Odean Smith and it turned out not to be a bad decision. They are likely to stick with the same XI. Kyle Mayers and Brandon King have established themselves as a good complementary batting pair and are likely to be their openers for the remaining two games.
Akeal Hosein will continue to be the only spinner on the team. West Indies recently lost the three-match ODI series against India by 3-0 and is also 2-1 behind in the ongoing series after 3 T20I had concluded.
West Indies Probable XI:- Kyle Mayers, Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran (C), Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Devon Thomas (WK), Jason Holder, Dominic Drakes, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph & Obed McCoy
