India will look to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match T20I series against the West Indies when the two sides face off in the 2nd T20I at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Friday.

Deepak Chahar: After raking in the moolah during the recent IPL auction, Deepak Chahar is currently on a high. The pacer will be keen to put in some
