India elect to bowl vs WI, KL Rahul replaces Dhawan

August 27, 2016 19:13

The big news is that West Indies's dashing opener Chris Gayle misses out because of injury and so will fast bowler Jason Holder.

India also have made quite an important change as KL Rahul, who had a superb run in IPL this year, comes into the side in place of the experienced Shikhar Dhawan.

India are playing three fast bowlers in Mohammad Shami, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Jasprit Bumrah, while all-rounder Stuart Binny also gets a game.

They will also bank on their two spinners, Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja, to contribute with the bat.
