Weather forecast in Lauderhill for fourth WI vs IND T20I
by Wisden Staff 2 minute read

The West Indies vs India tour has moved to its final leg, with the last two T20Is of the five-match series to be played in Lauderhill, Florida. Here’s all you need to know about the rain forecast and weather updates for the fourth T20I.

West Indies won the first two matches of the series before India got one back in the third T20I. Heading into the fourth match, the hosts lead the series 2-1 and would be looking to take an unassailable lead in Florida.

India have had three debutants in the first three matches of the series: Tilak Varma, Mukesh Kumar, and Yashasvi Jaiswal. While Varma has got off to a brilliant start to his T20 career, registering three consecutive scores of 35-plus, including one fifty, Mukesh and Jaiswal have had tougher beginnings. Mukesh has taken two wickets from three games at an average of 39, while Jaiswal scored just one in the only game that he has played.

Shubman Gill’s form would be a concern for India as the opener has failed to cross single digits in the three games. For the hosts, Nicholas Pooran and Rovman Powell have taken control of the middle overs nicely but will want their top order and Shimron Hetmyer to contribute more.

If West Indies win this game, it will be their first bilateral series victory against India in any format since 2006 where they would have won more than one match. However, there’s a slight chance that rain may play spoilsport. Here’s what the weather forecast looks like for the fourth T20I between West Indies and India.
