West Indies gear up for 1st T20I after ODI series defeat

The first India vs West Indies T20I match is scheduled to be played on Sunday at the Eden Gardens, Kolkata.

After facing a heart-breaking loss against India, the West Indies will get into a 3-match T20I series against the men-in-blue beginning from Sunday. Meanwhile, T20 skipper Carlos Brathwaite sweated it out at the Eden Gardens, a ground where his four successive sixes in a World T20 final made him a household name.

Along with another T20 stalwart Kieron Pollard and five others, Brathwaite trained hard with the first T20 International against India starting November 4.

The other members of the Windies T20 side who were seen training included Darren Bravo, Khary Pierre, Nicholas Pooran, Denesh Ramdin and Sherfane Rutherford.

The focus was on batting as they all tried to smack the ball out of the park in their session that went on for close to three hours.

Bravo is set to play for West Indies for the first time in two years while all-rounder Pollard will don the national jersey for the first time in a year. Both the players found their names in the T20 squad after their impressive outings in the CPL.

Meanwhile, around 18,000 tickets were sold till Thursday evening, Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) sources said.

West Indies T20 squad:

Carlos Brathwaite (captain), Fabian Allen, Darren Bravo, Shimron Hetmyer, Evin Lewis, Obed McCoy, Keemo Paul, Khary Pierre, Kieron Pollard, Rovman Powell, Denesh Ramdin, Andre Russell, Sherfane Rutherford, Oshane Thomas.
