West Indies vs India 1st T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips

West Indies and India begin their five-game IT20 series at the Brian Lara Cricket Academy, Trinidad and Tobago on Friday morning. The hosts won their last series in this format 2-0 against Bangladesh at home earlier this month. India beat England 2-1 away with wins at The Oval and The Ageas Bowl. Read on as we preview this game. The match begins at 10:30 local time.
After being whitewashed in the ODIs and suffering their ninth successive defeat in that format, the hosts will be delighted to return to T20 cricket. They have a far stronger record in this shorter version of the game.
India were excellent throughout the ODI series and now have the luxury of bringing some of their best players back for this leg of the tour. After beating England earlier this month, the visitors will be expected to triumph again.
