On Tuesday, August 1, West Indies and India will take on each other in the final ODI of the ongoing three-match series. After two consecutive fixtures in Barbados, the caravan shifts to Tarouba, Trinidad, where both teams will battle it out in the decider at the Brian Lara Stadium. The venue will host its first-ever ODI game, as a cracking battle is expected, with the series levelled one-all. 

So, as both teams gear up for the final, let's see how the surface in Tarouba, Trinidad, is expected to behave throughout the game. 


Brian Lara Stadium, Tarouba Pitch Report

The surface at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad, will be a better track to bat than the one dished out at Kensington Oval, Barbados, in the first two matches. The pitch generally offers even pace and bounce, making itself ideal for stroke play. 

However, the seamers might get a little help off the deck, with the new ball posing challenges for the batters. There will also be some turn on offer for the spinners; however, the bounce in Trinidad won't likely cause discomfort for the batters. 

So, the batters from both sides can trust the bounce and play through the line here. With rain predicted in the afternoon, whichever team wins the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
