Open poll and resultsIndia vs West Indies prediction
The experienced pros amid this India team will be very important during this ODI series against West Indies. That means the likes of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma as these two nations continue their preparations for the next ICC Cricket World Cup. Rohit is coming off the back of a splendid century away to England earlier this summer, but it’s Kohli who could be the defining factor in this match.
Still hungry as ever to succeed and one of the greatest ever ODI batters, Kohli could make this a very punishing occasion for these West Indian bowlers, who will likely find getting him out an extremely difficult challenge. India are still the stronger team despite those out playing in the Asian Games, so back a sizeable Kohli score amid a home victory.
