Barbados has a pitch that supports pacers and spinners alike. The performance of Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav will be crucial in the match. What remains to be seen is whether there will be any changes to the pitch in the second ODI. Everyone is waiting to see if Indian skipper Rohit Sharma will be ready for the tests like in the first ODI. In the first ODI, West Indies captured the batting line, but chasing a small target of 115 runs, India lost 5 wickets.

While India’s loss of 5 wickets while scoring 115 runs is a minor concern, the reality is that this happened due to a change in the batting order. Virat Kohli didn’t even get a chance to bat when Rohit Sharma, who was supposed to be the opener, batted at number seven. The Indian management tried to give more overs in batting to Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya.
While Ishan Kishan scored a fifty, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya failed. Gill is almost certain to be in the squad for today’s match as well. Hardik Pandya will also be in the team. Fans are waiting to see if Malayalee player Sanju Samson will get a place in the team instead of Suryakumar Yadav. Sanju was expected to be included in the team for the first match, but that did not happen. Criticism was also strong once morest giving another chance to Suryakumar instead of Sanju.
Sanju’s fans are disappointed that despite averaging 66 in ODIs, Sanju was not given a place in the playing XI. Suryakumar is likely to get a chance in today’s match as well. The benched players may get a chance to play in the final match.
India’s Probable XI: Rohit Sharma (C), Subhman Gill, Virat Kohli, Ishan Kishan (WK), Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Umran Malik, Mukesh Kumar.
West Indies Probable XI: Brandon King, Alik Athanase, Shai Hope (C & WK), Kesey Carty, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Romario Shepherd, Dominic Drakes, Yannick Kariya, Gudakesh Moti, Jayden Seals.
