India looking for Series Victory against West Indies

St. Lucia: A spirited Team India will be looking for its second series victory in West Indies, when it takes on the Caribbean team in the fourth and final ODI this evening at St. Lucia. India, after winning the third ODI on Friday, have taken a 2-1 lead in the series. If they win today's match, it will be their second ODI series victory in West Indies.

The last time India had won the ODI series in West Indies was in 2002 under the captaincy of Sourav Ganguly. In 2006, India suffered a 1-4 drubbing under the captaincy of Rahul Dravid.

An ODI series win in West Indies will give India much breather after the debacle in the ICC Twenty20 World Cup in England last month. Although the Indians have not been too convincing in the ongoing series, they still managed to put up a good show. They will need to fire in this match to wrap up the series 3-1, which may not be an easy task for them.

India Team:

MS Dhoni, Yuvraj Singh, Subramaniam Badrinath, Gautam Gambhir, Harbhajan Singh, Ravindra Jadeja, Dinesh Karthik, Praveen Kumar, Abhishek Nayar, Ashish Nehra, Pragyan Ojha, Yusuf Pathan, Ishant Sharma, Rohit Sharma, RP Singh, Murali Vijay.

West Indies Team:

Chris Gayle, Denesh Ramdin, Lionel Baker, Darren Bravo, Dwayne Bravo, Sulieman Benn, David Bernard, Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Narsingh Deonarine, Runako Morton, Ravi Rampaul, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Jerome Taylor.
