A West Indies team surprisingly in the lead after winning the opening T20 International against India in Trinidad and Tobago last Thursday, will take to the National Stadium, Providence from 10.30 hours today aiming to go 2-0 up against an India side  keen to correct its mistakes from the  first game of the five-match T20I series.

Both teams enjoyed the final practice session yesterday at the venue with the West Indies team training from 10am to 1pm and the Indians training from 1pm to 4pm.

West Indies skipper, Rovman Powell, in his assessment of the playing conditions, said that they seem to be better than the conditions of the first match.
