Their match against New Zealand was washed out even without a ball being bowled and there were rains in the led up to their last encounters against Pakistan and Afghanistan.

India, the only unbeaten team of World Cup 2019 so far, will look to carry the momentum against West Indies and get one step closer to the semi-final berth.

West Indies, on the other hand, have come close to beating more fancied teams in the tournament but have failed to get a result. In their last match against New Zealand, the Windies were within a big hit of winning the match but Carlos Brathwaite was caught on the boundary.

The team also performed well against Australia but failed to close out the result despite having the Aussies on their knees. With only 3 points on the board, the tournament’s dark horses are all but out of contention for a place in the last 4 and a loss against India will shut the door on them completely.
