New Delhi: After earning a hard-fought series win in the T20Is, Team India will now want to take that form in the ODIs when they face West Indies in the first match of the three-game rubber to be played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Sunday.West Indies gave a glimpse of its power-packed performance in the three T20Is and the Indian team will be cautious in their approach, especially considering they will without their two main players in the ODIs.Both Shikhar Dhawan and Bhuvneshwar Kumar have been ruled out of the series because of their respective injuries. Dhawan, who hurt his knee during the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy recently, has been replaced by Mayank Agarwal while Shardul Thakur has been named as replacement for Kumar who suffered from a groin injury in the final T20I at the Wankhede.However, despite the injuries, the Men in Blue will be confident of coming through unscathed, especially in home conditions. Captain Virat Kohli will have some tough calls to make when he will decide about the playing XI.It will be interesting to see whether the hosts play the spin duo of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal considering the slowness of the Chennai pitch."We were looking at an ideal combination which gives absolute balance to the team," India bowling coach Bharat Arun had said on Friday."Also there was an option, where we could use Jadeja as an all-rounder. So that really helped us and yes, there may be occasions when there are conducive conditions both can be playing together. But we will have to look at the overall balance before we decide the team," he added.For West Indies, ODIs will provide them with the opportunity of taking in the T20 form and give a tough fight to the Indians. However, in the ODIs, the West Indies team haven't had the greatest of runs in the last few years and have gone without a win in 16 bilateral ODI series since August 2014.In fact, the drawn series against England at home earlier this year remains to be their lone highlight. However, they would carry their confidence from the 3-0 sweep of Afghanistan last month.One big positive for the visitors would be the return of their top-ranked batsman Shai Hope.The head-to-head count between India and West Indies in ODIs stands currently at 62 wins each, but the gulf between the two sides has progressively widened in the last decade or so and the Indian team would like to increase that further.The two teams last met in ODIs in the Caribbean Islands where India won the three-match series 2-0 as one of the matches got washed out.Squads:India: Virat Kohli (captain), Rohit Sharma (vice-captain), Mayank Agarwal, KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Manish Pandey, Rishabh Pant, Shivam Dube, Kedar Jadhav, Ravindra Jadeja, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Deepak Chahar, Mohammed Shami, Shardul ThakurWest Indies: Sunil Ambris, Shai Hope, Khary Pierre, Roston Chase, Alzarri Joseph, Kieron Pollard (C), Sheldon Cottrell, Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran, Shimron Hetmyer, Evin Lewis, Romario Shepherd, Jason Holder, Keemo Paul, Hayden Walsh Jr.

The destructive batting pair Hope and Hetmyer are taking the attack to Men in Blue ! After bowling a great first over, Yadav is now proving to be ineffective against Windies batsmen.

Skipper Kohli has decided to bring senior left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja into the attack to break the partnership as the hosts look desperate for a breakthrough. Windies are 79/1 after 15 overs.

15/12/2019 19:04:42

Apart from Chahar, all Windies batsmen till now have enjoyed the pace from Indian bowlers and have managed to play some good strokes. Meanwhile, Yadav is disappointing his skipper - he has bowled five wides in his second over. There was also a missed chance in between as Rohit dropped Hope's catch. The deputy skipper, fielding at first slip, stretched to his fullest but failed to grab the ball. West Indies are 45/1 after 11 overs. 

15/12/2019 18:56:29

Despite early loss of opener Ambris, Hetmyer and Hope kept swinging the bat hard to smash the Indian bowlers for a few boundaries. In the 8th over, skipper Virat Kohli decided to bring left-arm chinamanKuldeep Yadav into the attack. Yadav troubled Hetmyer by bowling some vicious turning deliveries, courtesy some assistance from slow Chennai pitch but has failed to get the second wicket for team. Windies are 31/1 after 9 overs.   

15/12/2019 18:35:06

OUT ! Deepak Chahar continues his bowling heroics from recently-concluded T20I series against the same opponents. Paceman Chahar gets an early breakthrough for team India by getting the danger man Sunil Ambris (9) trapped in front of the wickets for an LBW. A great start for team India ! Left-handed hard-hitter Shimron Hetmyer is the next man to crease. Windies are 12/1 after first five overs. 

15/12/2019 18:25:01

Young pace sensation Deepak Chahar started the proceedings for team India. Shai Hope and Ambris came down in the middle as the opening batsman for Windies. Just like Cottrell in first innings, Chahar bowled with discipline to start with a maiden over. However, things have not been the same for senior paceman Shami as Ambris smashed him for two scintillating boundaries in the second over to get the chase underway. 




The Indian bowlers will be looking to keep a tight grip over the Windies opener else two heroic fifties for Indian batsmen and a formidable 287 will go in vain ! India are 8/0 after two overs.

The solid 114-run stand between Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant followed by a brisk half-century stand from Kedar Jadhav-Ravindra Jadeja helped hosts put a respectable first innings total on a slowish Chepauk pitch that saw the Indian top-order collapse in the first ODI against Windies at Chennai. Team India posted 288-8 in their 50 overs. 




All-rounder Kedar Jadhav failed to convert his knock into a 'big one' as he was caught for 40. With Jadhav's dismissal a 300+ total vs West Indies seemed out of reach for team India. Ravindra Jadeja looked to end the innings on a high note but got run out in bizarre circumstances. Jadeja's run out made skipper Kohli angry as he was not happy the way the entire situation was handled. 




Shivam Dube (9), playing his maiden ODI, went for the big hit in the final over but failed to get it over the fence for a six and was caught out by Holder off Keemo Paul's delivery.

Windies skipper Pollard got danger man Rishabh Pant out for a well-made 71. The wicket-keeper batsman was looking good as he played some mature strokes in his innings.

India are 210/5 after 39.4 overs.
