Bottom Line
India's white-ball teams are by far the favorites to win the West Indies vs India Series 2022 in both the ODI and T20I formats given their present form and strength. On the other hand, the West Indies will try to outperform in the Twenty20 format series and take revenge for their 3-0 series loss to India last February. However, the West Indies ODI team’s performances in recent years have been below par. They suffered a 3-0 whitewash against Bangladesh in their most recent home series. Therefore, the Caribbean team will need to perform exceptionally well if they want to defeat a strong team like India.
