latest news about India Vs West Indies T20: India, battling for survival, need to play out of their skins when they meet hosts West Indies in the Super Eights of the World Twenty20 here on Sunday.
After their shattering 49-run defeat against Australia on Saturday, India need to bounce back with an emphatic victory against the home team to keep themselves in the hunt for a semi-final berth.
It is easier said then done with the home team also facing a do-or-die battle, having lost the first Super Eight match against Sri Lanka by 57 runs.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s team was made to look like a bunch of novices by Australia on Friday. The defeat of margin was reduced because of Rohit Sharma’s exemplary 79 runs in India’s total of 135. Sharma’s knock was the only positive India can draw from the match. The rest of the batsmen failed to cope up with the pace and bounce extracted by the Australian attack on a lively Kensington Oval wicket.
Dhoni’s team is aware they need a drastic change in their attitude while playing against quality bowlers.
“The adrenalin sometimes gets the better of you,” Dhoni said. “You try to fight fire with fire and it doesn’t always work and this was an example of that.”
