Of course it wouldn't because you're not a WI fan!!

I am a WI fan, just not a blind WI fan to think WI are moving forward every rare match / innings they score some runs.

I still don't see a fantasy team from you two yet...

CricInfo's preview...
Weakened India still tough to beat
Form guide
India WWWWW (Most recent first)
West Indies LWWWW
Watch out for…
Kieron Pollard has long had an uneasy relationship with the West Indies board, and despite his superstar status in the Twenty20 format, West Indies don't consider him for selection. That leaves the one-day format as his only platform for international cricket. And, worryingly for him, if there's one thing West Indies cricket have in abundance, it's medium-pace bowling, big-hitting allrounders. Darren Sammy is, obviously, an automatic pick, Andre Russell has displayed his talent this year, and Dwayne Bravo could also be a contender as and when fit.
Ravindra Jadeja was a deeply unpopular figure towards the end of 2010, but has won over some of the critics with his performances in the home-and-away series against England. Two Man of the Match awards and a bagful of wickets have secured his place in the XI for the current series, but he needs to extend that run. If Yuvraj Singh returns for the Australia tour, India could be tempted to go back to their World Cup-winningformula of seven-batsmen and four-bowlers, which could squeeze Jadeja out of the XI.

India strong favourites again here for two reasons.
1. They are the current world Champs of the 50-over format.
2. The small matter of playing at home of course.
So another tough challenge for the Windies, i just hope they can take some positive feedback from the way they fought-back on the final day in Mumbai and bring that competitive-momentum into their cricket, for this series.
The only chance we have of winning a match is if we try and chase whatever India post, we have some capable batsmen on their day (Barath/Simmons/Samuels/Bravo/Pollard) because i can see India chasing down any total we make, if we bat first. I just don't feel confident about our bowling/fielding disciplines defending a total, by trying to contain these guys. I guess there is the added bonus of Tendulkar, Dhoni and Yuvraj not being in the Squad, but they're still a formidable force all the same, just ask England...
