IND vs WI , 3rd ODI: Gill-led India eye clean sweep; Hope’s West Indies look to salvage pride

India aims for a three-nil sweep against West Indies in the final fixture at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium on October third. With the series outcome already decided, both squads are using the fixture to evaluate different player combinations with an eye on the upcoming global tournament in twenty-twenty-seven.

Previous encounters featured substantial totals from the visiting side, though India successfully chased down targets of two hundred ninety-five and four hundred five without exposing their middle order. Both bowling units faced challenges under evening lights due to warm conditions, while the matches collectively produced eight centuries.

Looking toward potential lineup adjustments, team management may introduce Yashasvi Jaiswal into the opening slot, while KL Rahul and Dhruv Jurel await opportunities to contribute. Prasidh Krishna remains unavailable owing to a hamstring issue, prompting the inclusion of Anshul Kamboj.

Additional roster alternatives include Mohammed Siraj and Nitish Kumar Reddy, alongside monitoring Naman Dhir following concerns regarding an ankle twist that was later identified as severe cramping.
