IND vs WI: India will take on West Indies in the third T20I of the West Indies tour of India 2022 on Sunday, 20th February at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata.
India have extended their dominance under Rohit Sharma once again with an hard-fought eight-wicket win in the second T20I to seal the series 2-0. Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant starred with the bat scoring fine half-centuries whereas the bowlers laid out a collective performance to help India get over the line. With Virat and Pant given rest for the third T20I, there will be a few changes in the Indian lineup.
On the other hand, West Indies almost pulled off a victory from the jaws of defeat in the second T20I. Roston Chase once again bowled brilliantly but lack of contribution from the other end saw the hosts put up a target of 187. Nicholas Pooran led the batting attack along with Rovman Powell but unfortunately fell short by eight runs. The Windies will now aim to get one step ahead in this game and end the series on a positive note.
