West Indies skipper Kraigg Brathwaite won the toss and opted to field first in the second and final Test against India in at Port of Spain, Trinidad.

India will aim for a series sweep against a feeble West Indies when the second and final Test begins on Thursday. The game will mark the 100th Test between the two teams and though India skipper Rohit Sharma said that it will be a big occasion, his team will be expected to dominate the West Indies like it did in the series opener in Dominica. The West Indies will be looking to bounce back from their disappointing draw in the first Test. The pitch at the Queen’s Park Oval is expected to be a good one for batting. It is a flat surface, and there is not much grass on the wicket. This should mean that both teams will be able to score runs, and it should be an exciting Test match.
