“India come into this match with strong momentum, having thrashed Zimbabwe in their previous outing,” the outlet wrote on March 1st, 2026. “Their all-round performance, especially with the bat, has been solid. The West Indies, after a dominant win over Zimbabwe and a loss to South Africa, face a do-or-die situation. With a powerful batting lineup but inconsistent bowling, they will need a near-perfect performance.”

“Eden Gardens is expected to favor the batters, but India’s recent form and balanced squad give them the edge in this crucial clash.”

“India showed in the last game against Zimbabwe that when they top-order gets going, there is probably no attack in the world that can stop their onslaught,” the outlet wrote on February 28th, 2026. “That collectively improved batting display must’ve revived the confidence within the ranks for the defending champions, who do start as favourites to upstage the West Indies. Especially considering the difference between the quality of the two attacks.”

Win it for Rinku Singh & His Family

It’s been a tough week for Rinku Singh and his family. Rinku left the team to go visit his father while he was in the hospital.

His father would pass away a few days later. Rinku’s father was 54 years old and was struggling with Stage 4 liver cancer when he passed. He would attend his father’s last rites before returning to his team last night.

Now is the time for emotion to play a key role. Now is the time for the team to rally around Rinku, his family, and push the team past West Indies into the semi-finals.
