Key Players

Shimron Hetmyer

Shimron Hetmyer was left out to work on his fitness. He is back again after proving he is fit but will he be able to find his form with the bat. In the IPL, he did very well in the finishers role, looking clear and batting with responsibility. If he can manage to find his range, West Indies will be very happy and look very destructive.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar

Bhuvneshwar Kumar has made himself an undroppable player in the team. His pace is decent, he is getting swing out of nowhere, and he is picking up early wickets with ease. With Kumar back, India has a strong advantage early in the game, if he comes into his elements.
