New Delhi: After winning the ODI series 3-0, the Windies will look to begin the T20I series with a win as the ongoing tour of Bangladesh enters the final leg.

What is the Weather Report of the Amos Vale Stadium from Kingstown?

According to the popular weather app Accuweather, there is a high probability of rain around the Arnos Vale Ground during match time. This means that recurrent disruption is a likely possibility during the course of the game. Therefore, there is a possibility that even if the full play goes ahead, the entire effort turns out to be a truncated game.

What is the Pitch Report of the Amos Vale Stadium from Kingstown?

The pitch at Arnos Vale provides an equitable contest between bat and ball. While spinners often thrive on this surface, batters with a disciplined and patient approach can capitalize on the loose bowls to post a competitive total. Opting to bat first after winning the toss could be a strategic decision, allowing the team to set a challenging target.


The Windies will bank upon the services of Akeal Hosein and Hayden Walsh Jr. who will bring in the variety with their spinning actions. On the other hand, the Bangladeshi spin attack will be led by Rishad Hossain and Mehidy Hasan Miraz who have been the go-to bowlers throughout the white-ball series and will remain the same going ahead in the shortest format.

On the other hand, when it comes to pace bowling, the importance of off-cutters will come to the forefront. Naturally, the likes of Obed McCoy and Shamar Springer will come into play.

West Indies: Rovman Powell (c), Brandon King, Nicholas Pooran, Keacy Carty, Johnson Charles, Kyle Mayers, Roston Chase, Romario Shepherd, Odean Smith, Alzarri Joseph, Hayden Walsh Jr., Yannic Cariah, Shamar Springer, Obed McCoy, Akeal Hosein (only for 1st two games), Jayden Seales (third T20I replacement for Akeal Hosein)
