India will resume their international commitments with a T20I against the West Indies here on Saturday (August 3). This the first match Virat Kohli and his band will play after getting knocked out of the semifinals of the ICC World Cup 2019 in early July. India will be eager to start a fresh season with a win and in the T20Is, they will go with a team that has its accent on young names, especially in the bowling department. Can they achieve the desired result? Here's MyKhel preview of India vs West Indies first T20I.

India will be looking to do early running in the T20I series. They will be mindful of the fact that West Indies will not be pushovers in this format as they had won the World Cup twice. India will also field a young bowling line-up comprising Navdeep Saini, Khaleel Ahmed, Rahul Chahar, Deepak Chahar, Krunal Pandya and Rahul Chahar. Only Ravindra Jadeja and Bhuvneshwar Kumar are with any considerable international experience.

After a disappointing World Cup campaign, West Indies will be eager to taste success and they will be more than happy to play a format in which they have clear liking. The likes of Kieron Pollard, Andre Russell, Shimron Hetmyer, Sunil Narine etc are quite at home in this format and they will be eyeing to floor a young Indian team.
