Kochi: Team India is yet to get over its hangover after the euphoria over the team's Test series win, and an emotional farewell to cricketing icon Sachin Tendulkar.
Though captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni is saying that his fast bowlers have been working hard on their variations, it remains to be seen how our bowlers restrict the visitors.
After losing both the Tests within three days, West Indies is not going to take any chances. Its ODI captain Dwayne Bravo is a different person compared to the Test skipper Darren Sammy.
The morale of players right now is down. In 2011, when the two teams played in India, the hosts won 4-1, but this time for the visitors, it appears to be an uphill struggle.
