Key battles to watch for:
Rashid Khan vs Glenn Maxwell : Keeping Maxwell’s previous inning in mind, Rashid Khan must have prepared a special plan against him. Once Rashid identifies the weakness of the batsman, he does not let him stay on the wicket for long. The wily leg-spinner will try to use the spin-friendly surface in St Vincent to his advantage.
