West Indies begin their three match ODI and three match IT20 tour of India with the opening ODI on Sunday February 6 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. India lost their last ODI to South Africa in January with West Indies losing their last game in this format to Ireland. Read on as we preview this fixture. This match begins at 13:30 local time.
India are very strong in home conditions and will be expecting to win this opening ODI. They have not been in excellent ODI form but they will be confident ahead of this match.
West Indies were beaten by Ireland in their last two ODIs and they will have another tough assignment in this fixture. They may initially struggle in the local conditions
The series will be broadcasted on Star Network in India. Live streaming of the series will be available on Disney Hotstar.
Live Streaming: They will also be streamed on SonyLiv App. The info has been taken from a third party and is subjected to change.
Most teams prefer to chase a target in this format of the game. We predict that both skippers will choose to field first in this opening ODI.
The surface in Ahmedabad has produced plenty of wickets for spin bowlers. We expect to see a surface where the ball keeps low.
Sunny throughout with a high of 29 degrees for the first couple of hours of the game.

Although India have lost their last four ODIs, all of those games were away from home in South Africa and Sri Lanka. The defeats in Sri Lanka were when the Test team were also competing in England and India could not put out their best XI. India are only missing KL Rahul from their first choice batting line-up
India have lost the last four ODIs with defeats against South Africa and Sri Lanka.
Rohit Sharma (c), Shikhar Dhawan, Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Mohammad Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal, Deepak Chahar
Kieron Pollard’s side were defeated by Ireland in their last two ODIs in January but look to have a far stronger team available for this series. They will have been encouraged by their IT20 series win over England but will need to play at a higher standard in India during this series if they are to be competitive.
West Indies have not been in great ODI form but their most recent IT20 form is strong.
Shai Hope (wk), Darren Bravo, Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran, Nkrumah Bonner, Kieron Pollard (c), Jason Holder, Akeal Hosein, Romario Shepherd, Odean Smith, Kemar Roach
India have won seven of the last eight ODIs against West Indies and lead by one win overall.

India are strong favourites with the bookies ahead of this game.
There are some excellent batters in both line-ups but it is only Virat Kohli for India and Shai Hope for West Indies who average over 50 in this format.
Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul are our batting tips for India. Sharma averages 48.96 in ODIs from 220 innings.
Shai Hope, Brandon King and Nicholas Pooran are our batting recommendations for West Indies. Hope averages 52.08 in ODIs from 81 innings
For India, Yuzvendra Chahal, Mohammad Siraj and Deepak Chahar are our bowling tips. Chahal is one wicket away from bringing up 100 ODI dismissals.
For West Indies, Jason Holder, Kemar Roach and Akeal Hosein are our bowling tips. Holder comes into this game after taking 15 wickets in the IT20 series against England.
The initial exchanges of the first game of a series can often be rather tepid with both teams feeling each other out. However, we expect India to come firing out of the blocks in this match. West Indies may require a game or two to acclimatise to the conditions and we are predicting an India victory.
