Match Predictions
India won all T20I earlier. India did a clean sweep by beating West Indies in all of the T20 Internationals. And our experts are of the opinion that India will take away this very initial ODI match form West Indies. India is in outstanding form since the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 and they also performed well in previous T20I matches. India is even better team for one day cricket instead of twenty-twenty format. And they will win this match quite easily. There are couple of changes in the indian squad. Krunal Pandya is replaced by Kuldeep Yadav. Washington Sundar is out and Yuzvendra Chahal is in.
Shai Hope joined West Indies again after ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. Keemar Roach will also join team again. Performance of West Indies wasn’t good in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 and as well as in recent twenty-twenty series. All of the key players are out of form or not able to perform – what they are supposed to perform. This is the main reason for their consecutive defeats against India.
They really need to bring the old aggressive form back else they will face defeats in this series too.
Toss Prediction
The team Who Will Win the Toss is supposed to choose bowl first because conditions are not good for cricket in Guyana. There will be huge amount of humidity in the atmosphere. Heavy rain is predicted on the match day. This will disturb the batting team and hence bowling team will get advantage of the bowling-friendly conditions. Bowlers can seek advantage of the extra seam and pace due to conditions.
