Handy contributions from Evin Lewis and skipper Kieron Pollard, who played quick-fire knocks of 40 and 37 respectively helped them post a mammoth total on the board. While India put on a stupendous batting display, they will be looking to improve in the bowling and fielding departments. The Windies, too will not be dejected with their performance in the first T20I and will know that a good bowling display can take them over the line in the second T20I, thus taking the series to a decider. According to Accuweather, the weather for Sunday at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram is expected to feature
intermittent clouds. A temperature of 27 degrees Celsius has been predicted for the evening. With inputs from Reuters
