India Seeks Bowling Improvement in Third ODI Against West Indies
India aims to complete a 3-0 series sweep against the West Indies in the third ODI at Mullanpur, with the bowling attack under pressure after taking only one wicket in the first 10 overs across two matches. Veteran Ravindra Jadeja faces scrutiny for a recent wicket drought, while captain Shubman Gill leads the batting with strong performances, including a double century. Injuries have affected the pace lineup, with Mohammed Siraj likely to return and Prasidh Krishna ruled out. Coach Gautam Gambhir has criticized the batting-friendly pitches, seeking better balance between bat and ball.
