IND vs WI 2nd T20I: Rain, Bad Weather At Georgetown, Guyana Likely To Play Spoilsport
HARDIK Pandya-led Indian Cricket Team is set to take on Rovman Powell’s West Indies in the second T20I of the five-match series at the Providence Stadium in Georgetown, Guyana, on Sunday in an attempt to level the series 1-1.
However, India’s plan to level the series can be spoiled by rain and bad weather in Georgetown, Guyana. The weather forecast predicts rain and precipitation that will increase around the afternoon.
According to Accuweather report, the 7 percent chance of rain will increase up to 71 percent by the afternoon. It will also be extremely humid and the weather is set to be around 26 degrees to 30 degrees through out the day.
The Indian team will be hoping that the weather doesn’t have much of a say in the match as they need to win this match in order to get back in this series and keep their chances to win it high.
India Eye To Level Series 1-1
After losing the T20I series narrowly by four runs to the West Indies in Trinidad, India will be aiming to put up a better show in the batting department when they face West Indies again.
In the first T20I, one can argue that India not having players who can hit boundaries in the lower order did hurt them in their inability to go over the line, especially with the tail starting from number eight, causing the balance of the playing eleven to go a bit off.
With less than 12 months to go for the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup to be held in the West Indies and the USA, the performances of various players in the Indian team during this series assume huge importance when being selected for the mega event in the shortest format of the game.
The pitches in Guyana have been on the slower side, which means the importance of spinners and pacers with a repertoire of slower deliveries go up, though scattered thunderstorms have been predicted to cause an interruption in Sunday’s clash.
