In the 52nd T20 match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026, India (IND) is set to face the West Indies (WI).

In the bowling department, Arshdeep Singh took three wickets for 24 runs in his four-over spell.

On the other hand, the West Indies did not perform particularly well in their last match as they lost by 9 wickets against South Africa.

Romario Shepherd was the standout performer with the bat, scoring 52 runs, while Roston Chase picked up the lone wicket for his side.

Pitch Report

The surface at Eden Gardens is generally regarded as well-balanced. The quick outfield allows batters to score freely, while pacers benefit from consistent bounce and pace early in the innings. As the match progresses, spinners are also likely to find assistance. In this tournament, teams batting first have won four of the five matches played at this venue, suggesting that the captain winning the toss may prefer to set a target.
