India performed admirably and checked most of the boxes. Captain Rohit Sharma and the victor, Dinesh Karthik, led the charge. Arshdeep Singh, R Ashwin, and Ravi Bishnoi all bowled effectively when they had the ball. The management would have been happy with Ashwin and Karthik’s performance. In T20Is, both players shown their poise and solid play. In T20Is, Rishabh Pant’s performance is the only significant concern for India.
West Indies’ batting, on the other hand, once again disintegrated. Even Shimron Hetmyer, who had made a comeback, was unable to produce much with the bat. The hosts’ pursuit of 191 never really got going. Pooran’s team had trouble coping with spin and ended up winning. West Indies will be seeking to improve upon their performance with the bat in the second T20.

India continued to bat deliberately and aggressively in the first ODI, and it paid off since they amassed a substantial score on a difficult pitch. In T20Is in 2022, India has been scoring at a rate of 9.46 runs per over, which is the best in a year in which they have played more than one match. India is more than willing to stumble to the occasional failures in their drive to increase the run rate across multiple phases of the game in the run-up to the T20 World Cup, as stated by skipper Rohit.
India is concentrating on their aggressive batting style, but with KL Rahul’s absence, they still need to figure out their opening lineup. There has been a lot of movement in the opening position. Suryakumar Yadav, India’s eighth opener this year, was elevated to the opening position for the first time in the first T20 encounter in Trinidad. Dinesh Karthik is excelling in his role as a finisher, amassing 167 runs in 10 innings and striking out at 147.80 in 2022, regardless of whether or not that may have been successful.
