In the India tour of West Indies 2022, the second T20I of the five-match series will be conducted at Warner Park, St Kitts on Monday, August 1 at 8 PM IST. India lead the series 1-0.
Captain changed but the Indian team’s dominance in the ongoing tour remained static. The Rohit Sharma-led Indian team clinched the first T20I without breaking a sweat. The star Indian opener commenced the attack while the new Indian finisher, Dinesh Karthik concluded the proceedings in style. A collective bowling effort bundled the Windies for just above 120. While testing the bench strength and warming up for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, the Men in Blue will try to pick more victories and may try new combinations.
On the other end, Nicholas Pooran and his men continue to struggle against the touring Indian team. The dismal batting performance in the last two games of the series has been highly disappointing. The Windies’ bowlers also had no answers to the assault of Rohit and Karthik in the first inning. The West Indies camp will have to pull out a new trick to tackle the in-form Indians in the upcoming game to level the series 1-1.
Head-to-head:
India have the upper hand in the head-to-head competition between the two teams. Both sides collided on 21 instances in the shortest format. The Men in Blue won 14 games while the Windies emerged victorious on six occasions.
In the last outing in the shortest format, which took place in the previous week, India won the fixture by 68 runs.
