Pitch Report:
The average first innings score at the Queen’s Park is 302 which goes down to 168 in the fourth innings. Over the years, the spinners have had a major say at the venue. However, the new ball bowlers can also extract swing and bounce early in the game. The skipper winning the toss might be tempted to have a bat first as teams batting first have won more games than batting second.
West Indies and India have played 13 matches at the venue with both teams winning 3 games each while 7 matches have ended as draws. The last game both teams played at the venue was in 2016 which ended in a draw as well.

West Indies: Kraigg Brathwaite (c), Tagenarine Chanderpaul, Raymon Reifer, Jermaine Blackwood, Alick Athanaze, Joshua Da Silva (wk), Jason Holder, Rahkeem Cornwall, Alzarri Joseph, Kemar Roach, Jomel Warrican
