🏏India vs West Indies: 2nd ODI at Kensington Oval - 29/07/2023🏏 - Page 6

Pitch report: It's the same pitch that was used for the first ODI. It's generally hard, but there are a few areas on the wicket that are spongy. The bowlers can extract some bounce and turn. There's variable bounce, so that will be challenging for the batters. The spinners will also get great degree of turn.

Gk: Although Sanju and Kishan will be batting at different positions today, the contest will be between them for that one WK spot. I personally think, Sanju is better suited for #4 or #5 spot

Right then, the players are out in the middle. Kishan and Gill to open as Mayers will start proceedings with the new ball..

Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill are at the crease. Ishan Kishan is on strike. Mayers will open the attack

IND: 2-0 after 1 overs

No Mrina, they are not playing in today's match. Now they are giving chance to other batsmen to evaluate their ability in different batting order.

That's a good thing!😃
