India’s batting has been a major problem in the series so far.

However, the rest of the batting lineup has struggled, and they have not been able to put together big partnerships.
India’s bowling has also been below par in the series. Yuzvendra Chahal has been the pick of the bowlers, but he has not been able to get enough support from the other bowlers. West Indies have been able to score freely against India’s bowlers, and they have not been able to contain the big hitters in the West Indies lineup.
India needs to make some changes to their team if they want to win the third T20I and stay alive in the series. The Indian team will need their openers to give the team a good start by scoring big runs. Suryakumar Yadav’s form will be needed. Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma may want to put on a crucial partnership. Pandya needs to be reliable in the batting department as well.
