West Indies vs India, 2nd T20I: Probable XIs, Match Prediction, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, and Live Streaming Details

West Indies and India are all set to square off in the second game of the five-match T20I series. The Providence Stadium in Guyana will be hosting this clash on Sunday, August 5.

West Indies, led by Rovman Powell, have taken a 1-0 lead in the series. In the series opener, they defeated India by four runs at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad.

After opting to bat first, the hosts put up a score of 149 for the loss of six wickets. Rovman Powell was their star batter after he racked up 48 runs off 32 balls with three fours and as many sixes. Nicholas Pooran slowed down after an aggressive start. He scored 41 off 34 before Hardik Pandya dismissed him.

Arshdeep Singh and Yuzvendra Chahal picked up two wickets apiece. Mukesh Kumar, who became only the second Indian to make debuts in all three formats on the same tour, returned wicketless in three overs.

India were in the contest for quite some time, but the loss of wickets at regular intervals saw them fall short of the target. Tilak Varma looked fearless on his international debut after he scored 39 runs off 22 balls with two fours and three sixes.
