Having plunged into despair after losing all the three ODIs in South Africa, this series couldn’t have come at a better time for Indian cricket. India have already pocketed the ODI series 2-0 and will look to go for a clean sweep — even as they may look to experiment with their lineup — when they take on a lackluster West Indies in the third and final match in Ahmedabad on Friday.
With the IPL auctions slated for the weekend in Bangalore, many top players in both teams are likely to be more focused on that than a game which has little context. While much is known about the Indian players, the match offers one final chance for many West Indies players, about whom the franchises would know little, to draw their attention at the last minute.
