WI predicted XI vs IND, 4th T20I [Source- AFP]The T20I series between India and the West Indies enters its final stages as the teams collide in the 4th T20I at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The game will take place on October 14 at 7 PM IST, as the visitors will try to level the series again.In the third T20I, India batted first in Indore and scored 223 runs and got bowled out. West Indies responded strongly, but got 209/7 and lost by 14 runs. As the West Indies look to get back at the hosts in Hyderabad, here's a look at their predicted playing XI.Top Order- Shai Hope (c/wk), Kamil Pooran, Shimron HetmyerCaptain and wicketkeeper Shai Hope remains at the top of the order, after showing his great form throughout the tour. He is the 2nd highest run-scorer of the series with 159 runs in 3 innings, scoring at 182.75.Hope will be partnered by Kamil Pooran, who showed his ability to bat in the powerplay last match. He got 42 off 27 to start the run-chase perfectly in the last T20I. Pooran got a fiery 60(32) partnership with Shimron Hetmyer in Indore, and the southpaw got 43 off 26 with six fours and two sixes. He will continue to bat at 3.Middle Order and Allrounders- Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, Quentin Sampson, Keemo Paul, Shamar Springer, Roston ChaseFormer captain Rovman Powell is set to bat at 4, having played a role in this series already. During the 250-run chase in Ranchi, he got a quick-fire 24(37) and is also closing in on 2500 runs in the format.The leading run-getter of the series, Sherfane Rutherford stays at number 5, having gotten 172 runs in 3 innings at a strike rate of 189.01 so far. Quentin Sampson got a rare opportunity to feature in the XI in the last match, and he scored 21 off 15 balls, with Romario Shepherd missing the game. He is likely to get another match in Hyderabad.ALSO READRovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford Sanctioned By ICC After IND vs WI 2nd T20IKeemo Paul replaced Akeal Hosein in the playing XI for the 3rd T20I and scored 10(6), picking 1/38 (4). Hyderabad is not necessarily a spin-friendly wicket, and Paul could be backed for another match in the series.Shamar Springer scored a fiery 35* off 11 with four sixes and two fours to keep the Caribbeans in the run-chase in Indore. He also picked 2/50 in his quota of four overs in the first innings.The very valuable Roston Chase will slot in at 9, while he can bat across the lineup, depending on the conditions. He is also their new ball bowler, especially against the left-handed batters in India's lineup. Chase picked 2/38 in 4 overs in Indore, while opening the bowling.Bowlers- Gudakesh Motie, Shamar JosephWith the ability to bowl left-arm orthodox as well as left-arm wrist spin, Gudakesh Motie is the lead spinner of the visitors. He picked up 1/37 in the last match and has been one of their impressive performers in 2026. Motie will bat 10, but he also has a T20I career strike rate of 133.98 after 25 innings, showing his ability to chip in with runs late in the innings.Finally, Shamar Joseph is the number 11 for West Indies. Even Shamar can bat and, if needed, strikes close to 150 in the T20Is. However, the primary reason he will be in the playing XI will be his express pace bowling. He has 39 wickets in T20Is, but tends to also concede heavily, making him a double-edged sword.West Indies' predicted playing XI vs India- 4th T20I, WI tour of IND 2026Shai Hope (c/wk), Kamil Pooran, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, Quentin Sampson, Keemo Paul, Shamar Springer, Roston Chase, Gudakesh Motie, Shamar Joseph.ALSO READLitton Das Creates World Record, Becomes 1st Wicketkeeper In The World To Claim This
