Grand League Punts

While Ishan Kishan has been in great form, the same cannot be said about his opening partner, Shubman Gill. He's struggled to get going in both the formats so far. But, he's too good a batter to not be able to come good in the Caribbean Islands. Expecting the law of averages to catch up with him won't be that bad a punt. 

Mukesh Kumar has toiled away in this tour without much to show for. His accuracy will be of great help at a first time venue in Trinidad. Despite WI batters having been much better at handling pace, Mukesh Kumar could be that differential pick in the final ODI of the series.

With Indian batters having struggled against spin, Sanju Samson's role in the team will a lot more important this time. He might have had a short stay at the crease in the second ODI, but he is an x-factor player who could give you extreme payoffs on his day. 

Probable XIs

West Indies: Brandon King, Kyle Mayers, Alick Athanaze, Shai Hope (C and WK), Shimron Hetmyer, Keacy Carty, Romario Shepherd, Yannic Cariah, Gudakesh Motie, Alzarri Joseph, Jayden Seales

India: Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan (WK), Sanju Samson, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya (C), Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Umran Malik, Mukesh Kumar
