Nicholas Pooran: We are gonna have a bowl first. There's weather around and there will be help for the bowlers early on, hopefully we will make use of it. It's a nice feeling, better feeling to win the toss, very happy to be here in front of my home ground. We spoke about it, batting in partnerships, gaining momentum, it's been tough for us, but we are up for the challenge. Every game we will try to improve. Unfortunately Jason [Holder] has Covid so he misses out. It's pretty much the same guys who played in the series against Bangladesh.

West Indies have won the toss and have opted to field

It's been nearly three years since Queen's Park Oval last hosted an international game

The last time West Indies won a bilateral ODI series against India was in May 2006, with India having won 11 series since.

Da One 28, Gill 32

IND 152/1 (25) CRR: 6.08

Captain Pooran wanted a good pitch. Well India seems headed for a score close to 400 but me hope me couldn't be more wrong.
