India’s first assignment after the horrendous ICC World Twenty20 campaign, some big names are also missing from the aquad. Sachin, Sehwag, Zaheer all are absent. This gives the younger players a chance to prove themselves. The team also would be looking to set the record straight.
West Indies would be looking to continue the good run they had in the Twenty20 World Cup. They had managed to reach the semi finals, and had performed better than expected. West Indies is more than handy at home and this time the Indian team is not at full strength as well.
