With Ganguly still out injured, India A named an unchanged lineup from the XI that won the 1st game.
West Indies A meanwhile made a number of changes.
Hamstring injuries to fast bowlers Gray and Gibson left West Indies A no option but to make changes, and with Drakes and Cummins unimpressive in the 1st game, pacemen Allen, Rose, and Cuffy came in.
The poor form of the spinners in the first game resulted in a change, with Rawl Lewis and Keith Arthurton recovered from injury to take up the 4th and 5th bowler roles.
This one promises to be much closer than the 1st game, with West Indies batting looking stronger, and the pitch likely to keep scores low.
