IND vs WI 2022, 3rd ODI: Today's match players list, teams & umpires
Having claimed an unassailable 2-0 lead, Team India will be keen to whitewash West Indies when the teams meet in the third one-dayer in Trinidad on Wednesday (July 27). Both the matches in the series so far have been closely contested. However, the Men in Blue have managed to inch ahead in the end.
In the second game, West Indies seemed to have their noses ahead for the most part. However, India hung in there and eventually emerged victors to clinch the series with one game in hand. Axar Patel was brilliant at the death, clobbering an unbeaten 64 in 35 balls. His success as a batter is good news for India considering Ravindra Jadeja’s recent injury woes.
Under pressure over his place in the team, Shreyas Iyer has also done well, coming up with two nicely compiled fifties. Shubman Gill has been sublime at the top although the player himself has admitted that he is angry at throwing his wicket away.
