After finally defending a total successfully in Indore, India will again take on West Indies with an aim to seal the series in the fourth T20I on Wednesday, October 14, at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The Men in Blue had a narrow escape in the last fixture as they managed to restrict the visitors to 209 after posting 223 in the first innings.
It was Abhishek Sharma’s (69 off 30) fireworks that helped the team get an above-par score, and later Arshdeep Singh (3/44) and Naman Dhir (2/39) derailed the West Indies’ run chase. However, the Men in Blue will again have to be at the top of their game in terms of bowling as another batting paradise awaits them in Hyderabad.
On the other hand, the Men in Maroon will look to flex their batting muscles again and level the series. Given the tour so far, another high-scoring affair awaits fans in Hyderabad.

Players to watch out for in IND vs WI
Ishan Kishan (IND):
The southpaw has got off to starts in the series so far but hasn’t been able to convert them into big scores. Playing on his IPL team’s home ground, Kishan will look to make the most of the great batting conditions.
Shamar Joseph (WI):
The right-arm speedster managed to get two wickets in the last fixture, including the big scalp of Sanju Samson. He will again look to get his team off to a solid start with the new ball against the dangerous Indian opening duo.
