West Indies to Win (+250)

This pitch tends to favor big shots, and the West Indies are known for their explosive batting style. With their underdog status, they have a real chance to surprise everyone. India might have the home support, but the West Indies can pull off an upset if they play to their strengths. A key risk is that India's experienced players can be tough to handle, especially in front of a home crowd. Still, the West Indies have shown they can rise to the occasion when it counts.
