The Indian Squad
Right from the first game, skipper Virat Kohli has inducted the same team in all the games so far. In the first two games, the new opening pair of Shikhar Dhawan and Ajinkya Rahane gave a very good start but in the third game, the top order couldn’t perform well. In the last match, MS Dhoni turned out to be the saviour for the team whose knock of 78 runs off 79 balls led the team to victory.
I’m hungry for runs and I want to make this opportunity count, says #TeamIndia batsman Ajinkya Rahane after his knock of 72 runs off 112 balls vs. Windies Cricket #WIvIND

The questions have been rising on the presence of Yuvraj Singh who has not been performing very well so far. in the last three games, he could only score 52 runs. Now in such a situation, the fans are curious to know why Virat Kohli is giving him chances despite his poor batting and not to Rishab Pant who had a very good domestic and IPL record. It’s speculated that the playing XI may get changed a bit and Pant gets a chance to make his debut.
As far as bowling department is concerned, Chinaman Kuldeep Yadav has been a fruitful pick so far. In both the game he bowled, he took 3 wickets each. And for the 4th ODI, Kohli might also take a decision on inclusion of Mohammad Shami who has been warming the benches so far.
The Windies
Jason Holder and Co. failed to show any mark of excellence neither they were seen putting their efforts. Some of the players like Shai Hope, Roston Chase, Jason Mohammed tried to move the things ahead but rest of the team couldn’t. Other batsmen like Evin Lewis, Jason Holder, Roston Chase too need to play a vital role in the must-win match for them. Among the bowlers, off-spinner Ashley Nurse will be the for Windies.
