At the toss, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma said, "It's going to be a challenging one, we always wanted to bat first, put the score on the board and today gives us a chance. We're not thinking too far ahead at the moment, if we do the things right, we will always do well and get the runs on the board. One change for us - KL Rahul comes back in place of Ishan Kishan."

On the other hand, West Indies staind-in captain Nic Pooran said, "We will bowl first. We're staying in the present, the goal is to play a good brand of cricket, for the entire duration of the game. Kieron isn't fit enough, has a niggle. Just one change for us - Odean Smith is in."
