Team India has a balanced side with a healthy mixture of batters such as Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer, Hardik Pandya, and Rishabh Pant and wicket-taking bowlers in the form of Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, and Harshal Patel. On the other hand, West Indies have a pretty strong batting lineup with explosive batters like skipper Nicholas Pooran, Shimron Hetymer, Kyle Mayers, and Brandon King.
