Kolkata is set to witness the first Twenty-20 International of the 3-match series between India and the West Indies  at the Eden Gardens this evening.

The match is scheduled to begin at 7 pm. After registering comprehensive victories against the Windies in the Test and ODI series, an upbeat Team India will look to continue their winning momentum in the shortest format as well.

Rohit Sharma will lead the Indian side in the absence of Virat Kohli, who has been rested for the series.

Rishabh Pant has been included in the squad in place of Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Carlos Brathwaite will captain the visitors.
