India Vs West Indies T20 Worl Cup 2014 Live Streaming Highlights News.In their tournament opener against Pakistan on Friday, all departments of the Indian team performed in perfect harmony as they romped to a seven-wicket win.And on Sunday, they would be looking to do an encore against defending champions West Indies in a Super 10 Group 2 game at the World T20 in Dhaka.
India have a lot to be happy about after Virat Kohli and Suresh Raina dominated the Pakistani bowlers and their three spinners strangled the opposing batsmen. Leg-spinner Amit Mishra was the pick of the lot as he not only bowled a tight line, but also picked up two crucial wickets to be adjudged man of the match.
All in all, it was a fruitful outing for India, barring Yuvraj Singh's failure with the bat and in the outfield. But Dhoni is likely to keep faith in Yuvraj and retain the same XI. So, if India can add two more points to the two they won against Pakistan, it would make their path to the semi-finals much easier from a pool that is being described as the 'Group of Death', as it also has Australia and Bangladesh.
The Darren Sammy-led West Indies, on the other hand, had a close to ideal preparation as they won both their practice matches. They thrashed England by seven wickets and then, when they bowled second against Sri Lanka, they won by 33 runs.Interestingly - and to their great advantage - West Indies have many players who were part of the team that won the World T20 title in Sri Lanka in 2012.Their batting is led by the dangerous Chris Gayle and comprises Marlon Samuels, Dwayne Smith, Dwayne Bravo, Lendl Simmons, and Sammy.
Mirpur: After comprehensively beating their arch-rivals, India will face West Indies in their second in ICC World T20 2014 today. Indian bowlers punched above their weight and put up an impressive show in their last game against Pakistan. And Dhoni would be hoping that his spin trio — Ashwin, Mishra and Jadeja — do the same in India's second game in Super 10.India's batsmen, barring Yuvraj Singh did enough against Pakistan to maintain their place in the playing XI for the game against West Indies. So, it won't be too surprising if Dhoni does not make any changes in the team for this game.
For the defending champions West Indies, this will be their first game in this edition of ICC World T20.West Indies outplayed Sri Lanka in their warm-up game with Dwayne Smith and Sunil Narine leading the charge in batting and bowling respectively. And captain Darren Sammy will expect the same kind of performance against India to spoil India’s plans to gain ascendancy.
These two sides have played 3 T20s against each-other, two games in ICC World T20 and one in a one-off game that was played at Port of Spain in 2011. While India have beaten West Indies in their last T20 game, West Indies have won on both the occasions when they faced India in ICC World T20.While this India vs. West Indies will be high on flare with so many power hitters in both the sides, the game is not short on substance either.Dwayne Bravo
The Caribbean all rounder, Dwayne Bravo is handy with bat and ball too. He has played plenty of T20 matches and understands the game and conditions too. Dwayne Bravo can be explosive in lower order. While in bowling he is wicket-taker bowler. No wonder if he performs well with bat and ball too. The good thing with India is that Indian skipper knows the style of Dwayne Bravo so it would be worth to watch how he plans against him and how Bravo would prevent himself to be trapped.
Sunil Narine:As Pakistan has Saeed Ajmal who is excellent in this format of the game; West Indies too has Sunil Narine. The mystery spinner will be the key bowler of West Indies against Indian batting line up. The four overs of Sunil Narine can bring changes in the game. However, he doesn’t need much assistance from the wicket but still conditions are in his favour. It would be worth to watch can Naraine trap Indian batsmen.
