Match Prediction:
West Indies enter this third game of the series against India knowing that a win will secure a series win at the earliest opportunity. The hosts won the first match by 4 runs in Tarouba on Thursday before winning by 2 wickets in Providence on Sunday. Continue reading as we preview this match. The third Twenty20 International begins at 10:30 a.m. local time at Providence Stadium.
The West Indies have won both of their first two matches, although by very narrow margins. Their confidence is increasing, but India will fight back in this match.
India came into this series hoping to be too strong for the West Indies in the third format of the tour. Despite several outstanding individual efforts, they have not yet proven adequate.
Winning Chances:
Toss Prediction:
So far in the series, West Indies have won when batting first and when batting second. With the weather prediction improving for the second part of this T20I, we anticipate that both teams will want to field first.
Weather Report:
High humidity and isolated thunderstorms are expected in Providence on Tuesday. The temperature is anticipated to rise above 30 degrees.
Pitch Report:
The pitch was better for batting in the second T20I than in the first. A first-inning score of 165 or higher should be enough to win the match.
Head to Head:
The West Indies may have won the last two games between the two teams, but India leads the overall T20I head to head 17-9. India last won the match in August of last year.

West Indies Preview
West Indies won two consecutive games against India for the first time in seven years. But they have a lot of issues to work out, particularly with their batting. Except for Nicholas Pooran and skipper Rovman Powell, no one has demonstrated the ability to counter the Indian bowling attack. Brendon King and Myers will continue to serve as Windies’ openers. Despite scoring 892 runs in 20 innings since the start of the season, the combination has only scored 29 runs in the first two games. Even Jonathan Charles, who had a good record against India (174 runs in three innings before to the commencement of the series), has only managed 5 runs in the first two games.
West Indies Squad Prediction:
Kyle Mayers, Brandon King, Johnson Charles (wk), Rovman Powell (c), Nicholas Pooran, Shimron Hetmyer, Jason Holder, Romario Shepherd, Akeal Hosein, Alzarri Joseph, Obed McCoy
India Preview
Recently, Indian cricket has struggled to find the correct balance between long-term strategic planning and immediate performance achievements. While they won the ODI series, the road was not easy, and the squad is now facing the setback of back-to-back T20I losses to the West Indies – a scenario that hasn’t occurred since 2016. India will continue to start with Gill and Kishan. Despite scoring over 9 partnerships with more than 90 runs in all formats, the combination failed to play meaningful innings in the first two games.
India Squad Prediction:
Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya (c), Sanju Samson, Axar Patel, Arshdeep Singh, Ravi Bishnoi, Yuzvendra Chahal, Mukesh Kumar

Who will win West Indies vs India?
Few of India’s best players have shone so far in this series, and most experts expect a stronger effort in this game. The West Indies have impressed, but we expect them to fall short.
West Indies vs India Prediction:
It’s a simple calculation for India, who must win this game to continue in the series, whilst the West Indies might be celebrating a series triumph by Tuesday afternoon. Many expected India to tie the series in the final game, but they have failed to dominate with either bat or ball thus far. We anticipate that India will show their class in this encounter and win, bringing the overall score to 2-1.
