India have gone with a consistent playing XI so far in three back to back T20I series. The likes of Harbhajan Singh, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Pawan Negi got a solitary outing in the last 11 matches India played against Australia, Sri Lanka and the Asia Cup respectively.

Also Mohammed Shami, who missed out completely in India's campaign in T20Is recently, gets a chance to prove his fitness. Shami was included in the World Cup squad and his back up option is Bhuvi.

On the other hand, West Indies have come to the tournament without their big names of this format Kieron Pollard (injury), Sunil Narine (suspension), Darren Bravo, Lendl Simmons (injury).

 

But, West Indies can take heart from the fact that they still have cricketers in their side, who are being the most sought-after in T20s and have played all over the world in different franchise leagues.
