India and West Indies will meet in the second ODI of their international series on Saturday. The Men in Blue would be looking forward to continuing their winning momentum against the Caribbean side ahead of the Asia Cup and the World Cup later this year.
Kensington Oval Barbados will host the 2nd ODI game between the two teams on July 27. West Indies are currently on their worst run in cricketing history. The team failed to make the World Cup set to be played in India. They must be itching to get back to winning ways.
In the opening ODI of the tour, the Indian bowling decimated the West Indies. Kuldeep Yadav claimed four scalps with additional assistance from Ravindra Jadeja’s three-wicket haul. The hosts were curbed at a total of 114 runs. Skipper Shai Hope was the only batter to cross the 40-run mark in the innings.
Seeing the comfortable scoreline, India decided to shake things up a little. Instead of starting with their conventional openers, India sent Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill to lead India’s batting innings. Ishan had a brilliant game that saw him add another international fifty to his name. Thanks to his innings, the Men in Blue picked up a comfortable win against the Windies by five wickets.
Given the recent form, it is likely that India will pick up the win in Saturday’s ODI clash. We will just have to wait to find out if West Indies have what it takes to beat the visitors.
