World T20: West Indies win toss, opt to field first against India in semifinal<br/>

West Indies won the toss and elected to field first against India in the semifinal of ICC World T-20 at Mumbai&apos;s Wankhede Stadium. Men in Blue are certainly a reckoning force. Kohli&apos;s brilliance with bat, Dhoni&apos;s as usual calm tactics on the field, spinners taking control, Nehra&apos;s experience and Bumrah&apos;s death over bowling have all been the highlights. With top order not clicking being the major area of concern, Yuvraj&apos;s exit will also hamper the team strategy. Mumbai&apos;s Wankhede average score batting first this year has been 170, for that a vociferous crowd will be up for a run feast. The Caribbean side has been bustling and due to IPL&apos;s exposure they feel at home too. Chris Gayle, their ultimate weapon has not been quiet, has a century to his name in this edition and still looks menacing. Samuel Badree&apos;s ascension to top bowling spot in T-20 is also an indication that how his slower and slider ones are making an impact in Indian conditions. Overall the match is going to be a cracker but Home side will try to join England on Sunday in Kolkata.
