IND vs WI 2022, 4th T20I: Today's match players list, teams & umpires
Having taken a 2-1 lead, Team India will be keen to seal the five-match series when they take on West Indies in the fourth T20I in Lauderhill, Florida, on Saturday (August 6). The third match of the series was played on Tuesday (August 2), so there has been a gap of a few days. It remains to be seen whether the short break has affected the rhythm of the teams.
India dominated the third T20I, winning the game by seven wickets. Batting first, West Indies were well placed at 56 for no loss after seven overs. However, Hardik Pandya, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Arshdeep Singh combined to stifle the hosts. West Indies could only end up posting 164 for five in their 20 overs.
Indiaβs chase was guided by a superb innings from Suryakumar Yadav, who roared back to form with a scintillating 76 off 44 balls. Rishabh Pant also chipped in with an unbeaten 33 off 26 balls. Florida will present the Men in Blue with a different challenge, though, as they have only played a handful of games at the venue.
