Antigua, June 29 (CRICKETNMORE): Fresh from a 105-run win, a dominant India will aim to take a 2-0 lead when they face a lacklusture West Indies in the third tie of the five-match One-day International (ODI) series at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium here on Friday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After the wash-out in the opening match, the hosts failed to match the men-in-blue, falling to a massive loss in the second game.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Ahead of the third game, the West Indies strengthened their line-up with the addition of two new batsmen in Kyle Hope and wicketkeeper-batsman Sunil Ambris. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
Barring Shai Hope, who struck 81 runs and looked to pull out a fight chasing 311 runs in the previous ODI, none of the other batsmen -- Evin Lewis (21), Jason Holder (29), Roston Chase (33 not out) -- succeeded in converting their starts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Among the bowlers, off-spinner Ashley Nurse managed to test the famed Indian line-up to a certain extent. Nurse returned with figures of 1\/38 in his nine-over spell, bowling at an economy of 4.22 runs per over.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pacer Alzarri Joseph (2\/73), Miguel Cummins (1\/57) and medium-pacer Jason Holder (1\/76) will look to bowl economically after giving away too many runs in the previous match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
On the other hand, the visitors will look to play their natural game, having found it easy to score runs against the hosts. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
The batting line-up featuring the likes of Ajinkya Rahane, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni will look to demolish the West Indies bowling.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Skipper Kohli also hinted at including rookie keeper-batsman Rishabh Pant for the third match, which may result in Yuvraj or Dhoni warming the bench.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav (3\/50) tormented the hosts well and will once again be Kohli's go-to bowler during the middle overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

India: Ajinkya Rahane, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli (Captain), Hardik Pandya, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (WK), Kuldeep Yadav, Kedar Jadhav, Rishabh Pant, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Umesh Yadav, Ravichandran Ashwin, Dinesh Karthik.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
