Kieron Pollard has recovered his lost form and he seems to be doing well at the moment. Ashwin, meanwhile, is going through an extremely purple patch.

He has been amongst the wickets and his captaincy has been top-notch. His team occupies the third spot in the points table and how he manages to outsmart Pollard will decide the fate of tomorrow's match.

Going by the stats, Ashwin boasts of a good record against the West Indian batsman.

He has dismissed the finisher on three occasions and he will be wanting to do that for the fourth time.

Kieron Pollard comes to bat in the second half of the innings which is also when Ashwin bowls his second spell and it will be an interesting battle to watch.
