The second of five IT20s between West Indies and India begins on Monday morning at Warner Park, St Kitts and Nevis. India were much the better side in the opening game of the series on Friday and their 68 run margin of victory was fully deserved. Read on as we preview the latest white ball game between these sides. The match gets underway at 10:30 local time.
West Indies did not put in one of their better T20I performances on Friday and they will need to step up their level of performance if they want to compete with India in this match.
India’s performance in the opening game was built on Rohit Sharma’s innings at the top of the order with spinners, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravi Bishnoi, proving way too strong for West Indies.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on BT Sports in the UK and DD Sports in India.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on FanCode.
The hosts won the toss and chose to field first on Friday. However, this seemed to put undue pressure on their batting side and we expect to see India in the field irrespective of who wins the toss.
There will be something in this pitch for the pace and spin bowlers. We expect a par score to be over 190 with the ball coming onto the bat at good speed.
Partly cloudy with high humidity throughout. The temperature will peak at 29 degrees in the early afternoon.

Nothing quite came off for West Indies on Friday. Alzarri Joseph made his debut in this format but then conceded 18 runs from his first over with Jason Holder’s promotion up the order as a ‘pinch-hitter’ yielding a duck from four balls. We expect to see the same XI with a reshuffled batting line-up in this match.
Friday’s defeat ended a short winning streak of two games for West Indies in this format. As expected, India were a much tougher opponent than Bangladesh in IT20 cricket.
Shamarh Brooks, Odean Smith, Nicholas Pooran (c) (wk), Kyle Mayers, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Jason Holder, Keemo Paul, Alzarri Joseph, Akeal Hosein, Obed McCoy
The away side picked a spin heavy attack on Friday with Ravichandran Ashwin joining Ravi Bishnoi and Ravindra Jadeja in the team. Although this is not a huge spinning wicket, we expect all three to retain their places and India to select an unchanged XI.
After coming unstuck in their last IT20 during the tour of England, India will have been delighted to have won Friday’s game in style. They have won seven of their last eight games in this format.
Rohit Sharma (c), Rishabh Pant (wk), Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Hardik Pandya, Dinesh Karthik, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravi Bishnoi, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh
India have extended their overall lead to eight games over West Indies in this format. The hosts are targeting their 100th win over India across Tests, ODIs and IT20s combined.
| Matches Played | WI Won | IND Won | Draw | Tie | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overall | 21 | 6 | 14 | 0 | 1 |
| Last 5 | 5 | 0 | 5 | 0 | 0 |
After outplaying the hosts in all departments, it is no surprise to see the bookies backing India to go 2-0 up in the series.
Rohit Sharma was the standout performer at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy on Friday and became the global leading run scorer in this format in the process.
Shamarh Brooks, Kyle Mayers and Nicholas Pooran are our batting recommendations for West Indies. Mayers hit 15 from six balls in the opening game and was the most destructive on his team in terms of strike-rate.
We are backing Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav and Rishabh Pant with the bat for India. Pant made only 14 runs in the first match of the series but he will be looking forward to taking on these West Indian bowlers again.
Our bowling tips are Alzarri Joseph, Obed McCoy and Akeal Hosein with the ball for West Indies. Joseph finished as West Indies’ top wicket taker on Friday in his debut IT20 appearance,
Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh and Ravi Bishnoi are our bowling picks for India. Kumar delivered a maiden and the wicket of Shamarh Brooks and will be raring to go again in this match after bowling only two overs on Friday.
Although India lost wickets at regular intervals in the first game of the series, there was never really a point where it was felt that West Indies were on top. The visitors turned the screw with the ball and we expect to see another three spinners for this game. Overall, we are backing India to win again
