After the opening game of the IT20 series saw India beat West Indies by 6 wickets on Wednesday evening at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, the two teams go head to head again on Friday evening. India have now beaten West Indies in all four of their games, including three ODIs, on this tour. Read on as we preview this match. The second IT20 fixture gets underway at 19:30 local time.
India continued their winning run in this format at Eden Gardens. They have now won seven consecutive IT20s and will be very confident ahead of this match.
West Indies took the game deep in the opening IT20 and there were enough positives for them to come into this game with hope. They will need another strong batting partnership to be genuine contenders.
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.
India won the toss and chose to field first on Wednesday. We predict that both teams will insert the opposition if they win the toss in this match.
Spinners on both sides had the most joy in the opening IT20 of the series on this pitch. There was not a great amount of turn but plenty of bounce for the slow bowlers.
Clear skies with the temperature above 20 degrees and increasing humidity levels across the match.

Ravi Bishnoi came in for his first international appearance in the opening IT20 and outperformed all of his more experienced teammates with the ball. India may well be tempted to make changes later in the series but we would be surprised if they do not keep the same XI in this match.
India are in excellent form in this format and have beaten West Indies four times since February 6
Rohit Sharma (c), Virat Kohli, Ishan Kishan, Rishabh Pant (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Venkatesh Iyer, Deepak Chahar, Ravi Bishnoi, Yuzvendra Chahal, Harshal Patel, Deepak Chahar
After a very disappointing T20 World Cup defence in the UAE in November last year, West Indies are a work in progress and will need time to peak as a team. The batting of Kyle Mayers and Nicholas Pooran were positives in the opening IT20 and we expect them to select the same XI.
West Indies have now lost two of their last three IT20s.
Brandon King, Kyle Mayers, Nicholas Pooran (wk), Kieron Pollard (c), Roston Chase, Rovman Powell, Romario Shepherd, Fabian Allen, Odean Smith, Akeal Hosein, Sheldon Cottrell
West Indies have beaten India only once in IT20 cricket since July 2017.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overall | 18 | 11 | 6 | 0 | 1 |

The bookies expect India to go 2-0 up in the IT20 series.
Rohit Sharma top scored for India with Nicholas Pooran doing the same for West Indies. Both players will be looking to build on their scores in this game.
Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ishan Kishan are our batting tips for India. Kohli averages 51.49 in this format.
Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran and Rovman Powell are our batting recommendations for West Indies. Pooran has hit 6 half-centuries in IT20s.
For India, Yuzvendra Chahal, Deepak Chahar and Ravi Bishnoi are our bowling tips. Chahal dismissed Kyle Mayers when he was looking dangerous on Wednesday.
For West Indies, Sheldon Cottrell, Akeal Hosein and Roston Chase are our bowling tips. Chase picked up his first IT20 wickets in the opening game.
The first IT20 went as expected with India winning without too many scares but still in a relatively tight contest. We are predicting a similar fixture this time with West Indies continuing to improve with each game on this tour. Our prediction is a victory for India.
