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

The second T20I between West Indies and India will be played on August 1 at the Warner Park in Basseterre, St Kitts. India currently lead the five-match series by a 1-0 margin.

West Indies skipper Nicholas Pooran won the toss and opted to bowl first. The bowlers struggled a bit as the Indian side posted 190 on the board, thanks to a fifty from Rohit Sharma (64) and a sensational cameo from Dinesh Karthik (41* off 19 balls). The West Indies’ bowlers picked up six wickets in total, with Alzarri Joseph finishing with two wickets.

It was a daunting task for the hosts to chase the total but their batters failed to get going as they only managed to score 122 in their 20 overs. Their lack of partnerships resulted in them falling short by 68 runs.

Arshdeep Singh, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Ravi Bishnoi picked up two wickets apiece as they defended the total successfully.

The Indian side has looked fantastic on this tour so far. They performed brilliantly in the three-match ODI series and whitewashed the Caribbean side. They carried forward the winning momentum to get an early lead in the T20I series. The hosts will have to bring out their A-game to level the series.
