India vs. West Indies 1st T20I Live Score & Updates

Hello everyone, and welcome to the live blog for the India vs. West Indies 1st T20I at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow.

Toss result:

The toss is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. IST.

Pre-match:

India opens their five-match T20I series against West Indies on Tuesday, just days after sealing Asian Games gold in Japan, with Shreyas Iyer's side keen to carry that momentum straight into a new format and a new opponent.

West Indies arrive with belief of their own, having fought back from 2-0 down to push the preceding ODI series to the final game. Shai Hope's form with the bat has been a constant thread through that series, and the hosts will be wary of letting him settle early at Ekana.

Twelve of the 14 players from India's Asian Games squad also feature in this T20I group, meaning tonight's XI could closely resemble the one that beat Pakistan in the gold medal match, bar the usual selection dilemma at the top of the order.
