India and West Indies set for 4th T20I in Hyderabad
India and West Indies will meet for the fourth T20 International of their five‑match series at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday, with India leading the series 2‑1. India won the toss and chose to field first. West Indies made changes to their playing XI, bringing in Jewel Andrew for Kamil Pooran and recalling Romario Shepherd in place of Quentin Sampson. Indian commentators noted a possible change in the bowling combination and that 15‑year‑old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s inclusion remained unlikely while Sanju Samson was expected to retain his place and Kuldeep Yadav’s spot was uncertain. The hosts described themselves as aggressive and ready to go all out. Separate reports said free passes for the match were being sold for Rs 6,000 and four individuals, including a member of the Hyderabad Cricket Association, were arrested. Live‑streaming details and commentary services for the match were also announced.
