After Ranchi’s six-hitting spree, can India shut down West Indies’ power game?

India and the West Indies are set to face off in the third T20I of their five-match series this Sunday. The hosts are looking to bounce back after a challenging second game in Ranchi, where their bowlers struggled to contain a high-scoring Caribbean chase that featured 20 sixes.

Shreyas Iyer leads the Indian side, which aims to maintain its unbeaten home series record dating back to 2019. Gautam Gambhir faces tactical questions regarding his bowling unit, though Mayank Yadav provided a positive spark with his pace in the previous outing.

Abhishek Sharma will look to capitalize on his batting form as India seeks to regain the series lead. Shai Hope has been instrumental for the visitors, whose ability to clear the ropes has proven lethal.

Sherfane Rutherford noted that the team's batting depth has compensated for bowling inconsistencies, a trend they hope to stabilize as they prepare for the upcoming contest.
