Hyderabad weather report
The daily forecast currently indicates a very low chance of precipitation, suggesting that rain is unlikely to disrupt the match. However, humidity is on the higher side, meaning dew could once again be a major factor.
A full contest therefore is expected, with captain winning the toss likely to opt and chase as has been the norm in this series.
India are 2-1 ahead in the series and a win on Wednesday will give them an unassailable lead, while the visitors will be eager to draw level. India bounced back with a 14-run win in the third T20I in Indore, restricting the West Indies to 209 despite another late assault from the visitors.
A win in Hyderabad would help India clinch the five-match series. West Indies, led by Shai Hope, will need a strong all-round performance to level the series and keep their hopes alive ahead of the final match.
