India will host West Indies in a limited-overs series starting February 6. The three-match ODI series will be followed by a three-match T20I series, with the last game on February 20. All ODIs will be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, while the T20Is will be played at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. This will be India’s first series since Virat Kohli stepped down from captaincy in all formats. Rohit Sharma is back in the team after missing the Test series against South Africa. He will lead the team comprising a lot of new players. The hosts suffered a huge blow to their preparations ahead of the series after our players tested positive for COVID-19. Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Navdeep Saini, who was the standby player, will miss the opening game of the series. Mayank Agarwal has been added to the squad, and it remains to be seen how the team goes about their business. The Men in Blue will look to start their home season on a winning note, despite a depleted squad. West Indies, meanwhile, will be led by Kieron Pollard. The visitors are high on confidence after their recent T20I series win over England. They won a close-fought five-game series 3-2. It was a good team effort from them, and they will now look to carry their momentum into the series against India. However, West Indies will be wary of the subcontinent challenges, and will look to adapt to the conditions quickly.
