Team India will begin their lives after the CWC 2019 debacle. The Indian cricket team will take on West Indies in the first T20I at the Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill in Florida.  With fresh faces like Rahul Chahar in the squad, the team management will surely look to groom youngsters. This is also a great opportunity for young blood to step up and do their best. Right now the news from the centre is that India has won the toss and elected to field first. For this game, Rahul and Deepak Chahar will not not be playing the first T20I.  India vs West Indies Live Cricket Score 1st T20I 2019 Match. 

Talking about the game, the first T20I could face a few hurdles as rain could play a spoilsport for a while. As of now, it is bright and sunny and conditions are ideal for the game of cricket. The pitch could offer a lateral movement with a fair bit of moisture in it. The last time the two teams locked horns with each other was in the CWCW 2019 where India won the game by 125 runs. The two teams played a T20I game three years ago where India managed to win the game by a narrow margin of a single run. Back then, KL Rahul had slammed a century from 46 balls.

Now, let’s have a look at the squads below:

West Indies (Playing XI): John Campbell, Evin Lewis, Nicholas Pooran(w), Shimron Hetmyer, Kieron Pollard, Rovman Powell, Carlos Brathwaite(c), Sunil Narine, Keemo Paul, Sheldon Cottrell, Oshane Thomas

India (Playing XI): Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli(c), Manish Pandey, Rishabh Pant(w), Krunal Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Washington Sundar, Navdeep Saini, K Khaleel Ahmed
