Match Prediction and Analysis for WI vs. IND

The Indian team battled back to record their first victory at the Providence Stadium in Guyana following two losses in the previous two T20Is. West Indies' chances of winning the five-match T20I series before the action moved to the United States were dashed by Suryakumar Yadav's relentless tenacity. West Indies now hold a 2-1 series advantage.

On August 12th, starting at 8:30 PM, the fourth Twenty20 International of the five-match Twenty20 series will be played at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill, Florida.

Hardik Pandya made a surprising move by using four overs of spin during the PowerPlay, upsetting the West Indian top order's flow. With a partnership of more than 50 runs, the opening pair established a solid base, and Brandon King took on the role of an anchor to move the innings along.

Despite Nicholas Pooran's inability to reach a noteworthy total today, his effort during the middle overs gave the West Indian innings some impetus. Kuldeep Yadav, who took three important wickets and helped India mount a comeback, was unable to keep the West Indies captain at bay. Rovman Powell made an important cameo toward the end, and his quick 40 runs off 19 balls helped push the total over the crucial 160-mark.

In exchange, Yashaswi Jaiswal had a poor debut, losing his wicket in the first over. Suryakumar Yadav entered the crease as a result of this setback, and his first two deliveries produced a boundary and a six. This quick beginning set a lively tone, with Suryakumar needing a helpful companion on the other end. That position was expertly filled by Tilak Varma, who successfully combined assertiveness and poise. Suryakumar kept eliminating boundaries, but Varma skillfully manoeuvred the strike to keep the partnership's rhythm going.

Tilak Varma came one run short of his second consecutive 50 in a T20I, and Hardik Pandya's six down the track off Powell's bowling in the 18th over gave the team the victory. In the past 13 T20Is versus the West Indies, India has triumphed 10 times. The next weekend in the United States is when the final two games are supposed to be played.

SQUAD PREVIEW

Caribbean Preview

Despite a strong start from the openers in the third T20I, West Indies fell behind. This was primarily due to the runs' reduced strike rate. West Indies will start the inning with King and Myers. Since the beginning of the previous year, they had scored a total of 1108 runs in 24 innings, including a 55-run partnership in the opening two innings. Their strike rate, however, is barely above 125. Jonathan Charles' struggles at number three present another challenge for West Indies. Charles has scored 17 runs in 4 games since hitting a hundred against South Africa. However, Fort Lauderhill is his preferred venue, where he has scored 182 runs in 4 games with a 152.94 strike rate. To play more aggressively like himself and Pooran in the center, Powell might speak with his top order.

Pooran is still a threat for India even though he fell short of scoring significant runs in the third game. Pooran passed Marlon Samuels to become the second-highest run scorer for the West Indies (1614 runs). As a West Indian, he has scored the most runs against India. In addition, Pooran has scored the most runs for the home team since 2022, totaling 769 runs in 28 innings while striking out at a rate of 137.07. With one fewer game, his middle-order counterpart Rovman Powell has scored 704 runs, or just shy of 65 runs. Powell has hit the most sixes (54) and is striking at 154.72 throughout this time. His rapid innings of 39 in 20 balls actually enabled his team to score 46 runs in the final 4 overs. To watch out for will be Pooran and Powell at the plate.

In the last match, Suryakumar Yadav unleashed his fury on the West Indies bowlers. However, Alzarri Joseph was the one who stood out among them. As the series' top wicket-taker, Joseph tied Kuldeep Yadav with two wickets in the game. Roston Chase will probably stay on the team for West Indies because Florida's bowling alley is spin-friendly.

Rovman Powell, Alzarri Joseph, and Nicholas Pooran are important figures.

Playing XI predicted for the West Indies:

Johnson Charles, Obed McCoy, Alzarri Joseph, Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran, Romario Shepherd, Rovman Powell (captain), Kyle Mayers (vice-captain), and Shimron Hetmyer.

India Before

A victory in the third T20I preserved India's chances of taking the series, but it also highlighted the shortcomings of the openers. In this series, Shubman Gill is yet to record a two-digit total. He has 3, 7, and 6 runs under his belt. Jaiswal, who was making his debut, only scored one run. Indian openers have lost their wickets six times despite scoring 50 runs. Suryakumar Yadav was the one who came to the rescue.

With 10 fours and 4 sixes in 44 balls, Surya scored 83 runs. He passed Shikhar Dhawan to move up to fourth place in India's all-time T20I run scorers with 83 runs. With a 170 strike rate in 10 games versus the Windies, the top-ranked T20 batsman in the world has scored 347 runs. He will be the Indian team's top batter because he is back in the celebratory mood. None other than Tilak Verma is a player who has impressed everyone. The series rookie was not out on the other end but missed his hlf century by just one run. In three games, he has scored 139 runs at an average of 69 and a 130 strikeout to walk ratio. In the fourth game, the Mumbai Indians pair will be crucial.

It was a good move for India to replace Bishnoi with Kuldeep Yadav because the Chinese bowler took 3 wickets for 28 runs in his 4 overs. Chahal was however hit for 33. Chahal may be replaced by Bishnoi for the fourth T20I. He took 6 wickets in two games he played in Florida. A fantastic statistic on a pitch that encourages spin. With the exception of Hardik Pandya, Indian pacers have only taken 5 wickets in 3 games. Arshdeep or Mukesh can be tried instead of Avesh Khan or Umran Malik.

Tilak Verma, Suryakumar Yadav, and Kuldeep Yadav are important figures.

India Yashaswi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, Tilak Verma, Surya Kumar Yadav (VC), Sanju Samson (wk), Hardik Pandya (C), Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan, and Mukesh Kumar are the predicted starting XI.

weather circumstances

Morning will be partly cloudy, and the afternoon will bring isolated thunderstorms. It will be between 27 and 34 degrees. At 10 to 25 km/h, the wind will be blowing from the west. The pitch at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground is renowned for having a genuine and level bounce that makes bat and ball contact fair. The slower nature of the court encourages spinners to become increasingly important as the game goes on. Early on, seam bowlers might also benefit from the presence of a grass covering since it might facilitate movement and swing.

Venue Specifics

On August 12th, starting at 8:30 PM, the fourth Twenty20 International of the five-match Twenty20 series will be played at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill, Florida. The stadium can accommodate 120.000 spectators and has played host to 14 T20Is and 6 ODIs. In a game that the Windies narrowly won in 2016, India and the West Indies combined for 489 runs.

Throw: To Bat

The team protecting the objective has won 11 times out of 14 T20Is. The team that chose to bat first has even won the last five games. At Providence, the first inning score is often 164. On this field, batting first, West Indies has scored 245 runs, which is the most. The team that wins the toss will get to bat first.

Result Prediction

India is now in the driver's seat after a comfortable victory in the third T20I. India decided to take the fourth game due to their performance in the United States. India has three victories in 5 T20Is. They only fell short by one run in the one game. In addition, very few teams would have winning thoughts if Suryakumar Yadav is in form.

We believe India will triumph over the West Indies.
