Throughout the series, each toss winning captain has chosen to bat first. It would be a big surprise if either Rovman Powell or Hardik Pandya chose to field first in this game and we predict both will choose to bat first.

West Indies Team News & Playing 11
WI Team News
There were three changes to West Indies’ XI ahead of Saturday’s game with Odean Smith, Jason Holder and Shai Hope coming into the team. Smith was very poor with the ball and we expect him to be dropped in favour of Roston Chase on Sunday.
WI Key Players
- Shai Hope- the right-hander impressed with three fours and two sixes before falling when trying to bring up his half-century with a six on Saturday. He has an excellent white ball record over recent years.
- Nicholas Pooran- the keeper-batter has not made a big contribution in the last two games but caused India plenty of problems earlier in the series and is in strong form.
- Akeal Hosein- the left-arm spinner had the best economy-rate of all of West Indies’ bowlers in the fourth T20I. He has taken 86 international wickets.
WI Team Form
West Indies are looking to avoid their third successive defeat in this format and were second best for most of Saturday’s match.

IND Team News
After getting their first win of the series on Tuesday to keep the series alive, India were unchanged ahead of Saturday’s game. There is a huge amount of confidence running through this team and we are not expecting any changes for this match.
IND Key Players
- Shubman Gill- after struggling in the opening three games of the series, the tall opener was at his best on Saturday and hit five sixes.
- Suryakumar Yadav- the vice-captain was not required with the bat in the fourth T20I but is a player who the West Indies bowlers are fearful of after his performance in the third game.
- Kuldeep Yadav- the spinner missed the second game of the series and it was no surprise to see India lose that game. He dismissed Nicholas Pooran and Rovman Powell in the same over on Saturday.
IND Team Form
India have improved their performance levels across the series and are now targeting their third win in a row in this match.
India Predicted Playing 11
Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (c), Sanju Samson (wk), Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Mukesh Kumar
