The second Test between India and West Indies begins on Thursday at Port of Spain in Trinidad. India had thrashed the hosts by an innings and 142 runs to win the first match and take 1-0 lead. By winning the second and last Test, India have a chance to clinch the series. On the other hand, West Indies will be under extreme pressure to deliver the goods and draw the series 1-1. They made one change to their squad for the second Test, bringing in off-spinner Kevin Sinclair in place of Raymon Reifer. This has been done to provide an extra spinner in the playing XI to tackle the strong India outfit.

Rohit Sharma's India are likely to go in with the same XI as the first Test. The one change that he might want to do is replace a pacer with another. Jaydev Unadkat could make way for either Navdeep Saini or Mukesh Kumar.
