India won their last game in Florida in 2019 against the West Indies
The last time India played in Florida was back in 2019, when the two teams played the first two T20Is of a three-match T20I series. After India won their first game, which was a low-scoring thriller, they won the toss and batted first in the second encounter.
Rohit Sharma was in his element and took charge of the proceedings and powered India to a challenging total of 167 for 5. The double-paced pitch was a difficult challenge for the West Indies. They had trouble keeping up, and Krunal Pandya proved to be a challenge.
