IND vs WI: After the completion of the two-game Test series which went in favour of the visitors, now it’s time for some white-ball action. For the next few days, India and West Indies will take guard in the One Day International (ODI) fixtures. The first IND vs WI ODI starts on 27th July 2023. This article will take you through IND vs WI Dream11 Prediction for the 1st ODI, India vs West Indies Dream11 Team.
IND vs WI Preview:
Team India will begin its ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 preparations with the impending three-match ODI series against West Indies. The visitors will look to fine-tune their skills as the marquee event approaches. On the other side, West Indies would be disappointed with how things have panned out for them in the recent past.
West Indies slipped out of their World Cup 2023 qualification during the recently held Qualifier tournament in Zimbabwe. Their underwhelming performance threw them out of the World Cup race, which will be held in India, starting October 5.
With absolutely no immediate incentives to play ODI cricket, the Caribbeans could look to experiment as much as they can and try to eke out the possible reason for their faltering.

IND vs WI Dream11 Prediction Today Match
Looking at how West Indies have played of late in the ODIs, it will be a gruesome task for them to defeat the strong Indian side. Moreover, their performance against team India hasn’t been impressive in the last few years. Counting the odds, which are all against the Caribbeans, Rohit Sharma-led India will take the win comprehensively without any significant discomfort.

IND vs WI 1st ODI Pitch Report
The Kensington Oval is expected to be a decent surface for the white ball game between India and West Indies. The pitch will offer good assistance early on to the seamers with enough movement and bounce. However, as the game progresses, it will be pleasant for the batters to score runs and play their shots.
