After an edge of the seat thriller in the opening match of the series, today’s contest has all the ingredients of being yet another riveting affair between India and West Indies. Where India will be looking to build on the momentum garnered by them in the foregone tie, West Indies on the other hand will be buoyed by an exceptional bating display in the same tie.
At the end of the day in that contest, it was Virat Kohli’s astounding skill set which made the difference between the two sides. Despite piling on an extremely staunch target of 208, a score which looked set to hand them a win, West Indies were unable to contain an indomitable and diminutive Virat Kohli who showed why he’s considered such a stalwart while chasing.
It was a typical Virat Koli display, one which saw him regal us in an expansive brand of clean hitting and spectacular strokeplay as he ruthlessly and relentlessly ripped apart West Indies. He remained unbeaten on 94 to take India to a win with 8 balls and 6 wickets to spare, a performance which saw him remind everyone of his exuberant brand of batting.
And although West Indies will be ruing losing a match which should have swung ther way, the side will take heart from their batting display, one which saw them rip apart India’s gameplan in the bowling department and throw it out of the park. We are bound to in for yet another humdinger today, a close contested affair which goes down right to the culminating stages as either side look to throw the kitchen sink and more at each other.

IND Vs WI Dream11 Wicket-Keeper
With his three match ban over, Nicholas Pooran is set to be back in West Indies’ side for this imminent encounter to see us bring in the man with the gloves as well. He out scouring for redemption on the day after being maligned for his malicious act which resulted in his ban and we envision him getting some good runs today.
IND Vs WI Dream11 Batsmen
After his euphoria filled, extradonaire performance in the last match, one which saw him smash his way to 94 in a mere 50 balls with the 6 fours and sixes apiece, India’s captain Virat Kohli was always going to be regulation pick for us for the day. He is going to be accompanied by opener Rohit Sharma whilst from the visitors we have gone in with an entire trivalent of picks.
We begin with opener Elvin Lewis, someone who 40 runs in just 17 balls the last time around were just the shot in the arm the side needed to canter their way to a stellar score. Brandon King gave him good company with 30 runs to see us bring him in as well as the two put on a 51 run stand for the first wicket whilst Lendl Simmons comes in as well to complete our trio of picks.
IND Vs WI Dream11 All-Rounders
At a day when India’s bowlers were getting smashed around the park, Ravindra Jadeja sent down a restrictive spell of 1-30 in four overs, a performance which saw him refrain West Indies on making this an improbable run chase for India. The all-rounder is our first pick in the slot alongside Washington Sundar with West Indies traditionally always struggling against the rank turners.
IND Vs WI Dream11 Bowling Order
His team’s highest wicket taker on the day as he snagged the two wickets to his name, Yuzvendra Chahal will be an instant choice for us over. Althouhg he’s someone prone of going for a slew of runs, the spinner is someone who entices batsmen into going for false shots, something which sees us opt for him
India’s frontline new ball bowler and death overs operator, Bhuvneshwar Kumar finds a place in our unit for the day as well while from the visiting side, Khary Pierre will be bring an end to our picks for the clash.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Kohli will be coming in as our side’s captain for the encounter while Sharma is our vice-captain.
