Indian bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar on Tuesday told that winning the third and final One-Day International against West Indies will boost morale of the team ahead of the South African tour.

"Tomorrow's match will be a crucial one. It is important in the context of the South Africa series. Our morale would be high going into South Africa tour if we can win the series," Bhuvneshwar said at the pre-match press conference at the Green Park Stadium, which is hosting an international game after nearly four years.

Giving special significance to the match, Bhuvneshwar said he was eyeing an much-improved performance at his home ground.

"From my personal point of view, if I perform well tomorrow my confidence would be high going into the South Africa tour," the pacer from Meerut said.

"The stadium has changed a lot since I played here the last time. It feels proud to play in your home ground, at a ground from where you started your Ranji Trophy career."
