After two losses, India managed to flex their batting muscle in the third T20I to keep the series alive. Yet, they are still on the ropes and need to win the fourth to have any hopes of clinching the series. I am putting my money on India winning this match and taking it to the fifth T20I.

West Indies have lost their last 6 matches at this venue (T20Is)
The Windies have lost their last 4 matches against India at this venue (T20Is)
India have won 9 of their last 12 matches against the West Indies (T20Is)

Head to Head

There have been 28 T20Is between the West Indies and India so far with the Windies winning nine, losing 18 and one ending as no result.

At this venue, the record is even more skewed with four wins for India, one win for West Indies and one no result.

West Indies Form

The Windies were off the blocks in sprightly fashion winning the first two matches, which were tight. They held their nerves in both games winning by four runs and two wickets although losing the third by seven wickets.

Nicholas Pooran (128) and captain Rovman Powell (109) have been the leading lights for the hosts with the bat. They have also been their hard hitters smashing seven sixes each.

With the ball, Alzarri Joseph and Romario Shepherd have taken four wickets each for the Windies.

West Indies Team News

Roston Chase bowled well in the third T20I but if Jason Holder is fit, he could be out of the XI. Batting hasn’t fired but they may resist the temptation to make changes.

India Form

India’s mix of IPL specialists couldn’t get going and were flat in the first two matches. They had enough chances to win both games but were exposed by the lack of batting depth and poor bowling combinations.

The third match win was largely due to Suryakumar Yadav (105 series runs) but it is Tilak Varma (139) who has been their batting star in this series.

With the ball, the spin duo of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal have taken four wickets each with Kuldeep giving runs at just six runs per over.

India Team News

India’s fast bowlers haven’t been effective in the series which could mean a change. Umran Malik and Avesh Khan are available in the squad and could fancy a game in the place of Arshdeep Singh or Mukesh Kumar.

Verdict

West Indies v India - 4th Twenty20 Match

Both the teams have been unable to run away in the series which is why the results have been close. The Windies would be keen to close out the series but their batting has been found wanting – especially the top-order. India have a slight advantage when SKY gets going and he did find his form in the third match. I am putting my money on the domination to continue here with an Indian win. Put a small wager on Tilak Varma topping the batting charts for the visitors.
