Port of Spain: After a comprehensive victory in the rain-affected second One-Day International (ODI), Virat Kohli's India have a chance to win the ODI series before the teams move across to Antigua for a two-match Test series.
Last match's 59-run drubbing has ensured that India can't lose the series, yet the team would look to win the match and eventually end the series on a high. West Indies, however, have won the toss and have decided to bat first.
Pitch Report: This pitch looks a lot drier from the last one. It will be better for batting, there will be very little turn for the spinners. The toss will become important and this should produce a good contest for both teams.
What did the captains say?
Jason Holder: We are going to bat first. Seems like a good wicket and opportunity to put some runs on the board. We need to focus on things we can control. We've done a lot of talk, it's time for execution. We need to learn and take responsibility. We got to play as a team. We've got two changes. Sheldon Cotrell is out and Keemo Paul replaces him. We've left out Oshane Thomas and brought in Fabien Allen.
Virat Kohli: Not a bad thing at all, the toss is not in your control mostly. It's an opportunity to come out here and execute our skill-sets. We spoke about in the last game, how after a drinks break, we lost our way. One change. Chahal comes in for Kuldeep Yadav.

West Indies (Playing XI): Chris Gayle, Evin Lewis, Shai Hope(w), Shimron Hetmyer, Nicholas Pooran, Roston Chase, Jason Holder(c), Carlos Brathwaite, Fabian Allen, Kemar Roach, Keemo Paul
