India vs West Indies: Top 5 little known West Indies players to watch out for

The 50-over format has not been West Indies cup of tea for the last few years and that was clearly visible in the ODI series vs India, but Kieron Pollard and Co. are now in familiar territory. T20Is have traditionally been a strong suit of the West Indies and when they take on Rohit Sharma and Co in the 3-match series, beginning February 16, a much stronger fight is expected from them.

The team does have a few faces who are slightly on the shorter side of international experience. But the Caribbean flare that these players possess and bring to the table can result in upsetting the best teams around the world on any given day.

Brandon's abysmal show in the ODIs also reflected in the IPL 2022 mega auction as he failed to attract any buyers (base price INR 50 lakh) in the 2-day event. But now as the T20I series against India commences, Brandon will be itching to hit top gear. With a fair idea of the sub-continental conditions
