Within the final match in opposition to Zimbabwe, Rinku Singh, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav and Washington Sundar have been on the bench.
The India cricket team is unchanged for the India vs West Indies match, the last game of the Super 8 stage of the T20 World Cup 2026. Playing at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, with the semifinal qualification on the line, Suryakumar Yadav and Gautam Gambhir haven’t made any tweaks to the side.
No changes
With dew expected to set in, especially in the second innings, Suryakumar chose to bowl first after winning the toss. The Indian captain added that they have no concerns about their batting or bowling after the Zimbabwe game, and since they performed well, the Men in Blue won’t be making any changes for the knockout match against the West Indies.
“We will bowl first tonight. Looks good. It has been a chasing ground; the wicket gets even better, so chasing is a good option. It’s already wild (the support), and we will look to give a good show to the crowd. I think we ticked all the boxes last game. We are playing the same team,” Suryakumar told Ravi Shastri.
After Sanju Samson’s inclusion showed an immediate effect against spin and Tilak Varma fired lower down the order against the fast bowlers, it was tough to expect Team India to change the winning combination. And that’s exactly what has happened.
