Weather Report: India cannot afford any slip-ups in the all-important 2nd ODI with the series on the line. With this being an important one for the hosts, fans can be assured that the weather gods will not play spoilsport with negligible chances of rain in Vizag. The temperature is expected to be between 19 degrees and 27 degrees celsius, making the conditions ideal for cricket.
Pitch Report: The wicket at Vizag traditionally helps spinners and going by the fact, India could bring back Yuzvendra Chahal to make it a three-spin attack, along with Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja. With this match being a day-night encounter, dew will become a factor in the second innings.
India will have to get their bowling combination right after failing to stop the West Indies from executing a perfect chase in Chennai when they take on the buoyant visitors in the second ODI in Vizag on Wednesday, aiming to keep the three-match series alive.
A series win here would certainly raise Kieron Pollard’s profile from a T20 freelancer to an able leader but a blinder from Rohit Sharma or another hundred from skipper Virat Kohli on a batting belter can’t be ruled out.
It wasn’t a nightmarish bowling performance in Chennai by any stretch of imagination but not being able to defend 287 on a slow track left the team management with a few points to ponder.
