#4 Threats:-

There are not many threats for the Indian team against West Indies who have been in poor form currently. After their T20 World Cup 2016 triumph, they have managed to win just 11 out of 33 T20I matches. Despite this, the defending T20 champions cannot be taken lightly.

The West Indies side is full of powerful hitters like Chris Gayle (if he plays), Evin Lewis, Shimron Hetmyer and Nicholas Pooran. Chris Gayle, though not at the best stage of his career, had a good IPL 2019. The young southpaw Pooran is in good form since WC 2019.

The Indian bowling unit has only one experienced bowler - Bhuvneshwar Kumar who has been poor in the death overs of late. The 'Men in Maroon' have a quality batting lineup as mentioned above which can dominate any bowling attack on their day. India should also make sure that they do not lose the tempo in the middle-order which was one of their problems in the 50-over World Cup.
