India (IND) and West Indies (WI) will lock horns with each other in the first game of the three-match ODI series from Thursday, July 27. The Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados, will host the clash.

After the two-match Test series that India won 1-0, the focus now shifts to the 50-over format. It remains to be seen if the hosts can give the power-packed Indian team a run for their money.

On that note, here are three players who can be picked for the captain or vice-captain role for your IND vs WI Dream11 teams.
