To avoid a rare series defeat in the Caribbean, India will need to bat with authority required in the shortest format as they face the West Indies in the must-win third T20 International here in Providence Stadium in Guyana on Tuesday.

India, who last lost to the West Indies in a bilateral T20 series back in 2016 are trailing 0-2 in the five-match series. Winning three matches on the trot will be a difficult task for the young men-in-blue, however, the side is equipped well to make it happen.

As far as the hosts are concerned, their top-order too has not fired with Nicholas Pooran left to do much of the heavy lifting. West Indies would expect the other batters to make amends as well.
