India and the West Indies will lock horns in the final Super 8 fixture of the T20 World Cup 2026. The highly anticipated encounter will be played at the historic Eden Gardens in Kolkata. 

Under Suryakumar Yadav's leadership, India have been phenomenal in the T20 World Cup. The Men in Blue suffered a humiliating defeat from Group 1 table-toppers South Africa before bouncing back with a commanding victory over Zimbabwe

Abhishek Sharma, who had struggled to get going until the Zimbabwe clash, regained his mojo with a valiant half-century. 

Skipper Suryakumar Yadav and left-handed batter Tilak Varma composed blistering cameos, with Hardik Pandya and Sanju Samson also joining the party with valuable knocks. 

Varun Chakaravarthy has been the pick of the bowlers for India, while Shivam Dube has lit up the T20 World Cup with his all-round heroics. 

Jasprit Bumrah, who derailed South Africa with a three-wicket haul, is also expected to play a significant role alongside Axar Patel and Arshdeep Singh. 

Meanwhile, the West Indies showcased their resilience, reaching a respectable score despite a horrible batting collapse against South Africa. 

Although Shai Hope and Brandon King have blown hot and cold, Sherfane Rutherford, Jason Holder and Romario Shepherd have performed admirably for the Men in Maroon. 

The West Indies will expect Shimron Hetmyer to dismantle the Indian attack with his power-hitting, while Akeal Hosein might make his way back to the playing XI in place of the struggling Shamar Joseph. 

As both teams get ready to fight out for a semifinal spot, here we explain the IND Vs WI pitch report and IND Vs WI weather report of the Eden Gardens in Kolkata.
