India will still want to clinch the whitewash to prove their dominance is no fluke.

West Indies vs India | Wednesday 27 July | Queen’s Park Oval, Trinidad | 15:30

To Win Match
West Indies 22/10 | Tie 25/1 | India 36/100

West Indies

It has been a game of inches for the West Indies so far but they will lament their lack of composure at crucial moments.

The Windies’ top order and Shai Hope in particular need to keep firing as they have done to avoid dependence on the all-rounders.

It’s a positive sign that the West Indies are running India so close given their struggles to peform consistently.

A win in the final ODI will set them up nicely for the T20s against the same foe.

India

India have been testing their depth and coming through with flying colours.

There is tremendous talent coming through the ranks for India with their main problem being how to manage it all.

Allrounders Deepak Hooda and Axar Patel have been key performers whenever allowed to show themselves.

The S brigade of Shikhar Dhawan, Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav and Sanju Samson could be unstoppable.

Verdict: India 36/100

India should close this out, but it has been tight and the Windies would be good value for a consolation win.
