Day 1 of the India vs West Indies second Test has high chances of witnessing rain interruption on Thursday, July 20. According to AccuWeather, rain showers are on the cards from 10 AM in the morning. The match is scheduled to start at 10:AM local time (7:30 PM IST).

Therefore, the first session has a high chance of witnessing rain interruptions. A delay in the start of the day's play can also not be dismissed. Cloud covers will remain until 2 PM. A bit of sunshine from 3 PM to 6 PM has been predicted.

"A shower in places in the morning; otherwise, mostly cloudy," is the overall weather forecast for Port of Spain by Accuweather. The precipitation level will be close to 50 percent and the humidity level could go as high as 74 percent.

Considering the weather conditions, the team winning the toss could opt to bat first. India can bring in Mukeh Kumar in place of left-arm pacer Jaydev Unadkat who did not look very impressive in the first Test.

"In Dominica (first Test venue), we had a clear idea when we saw the pitch and knew the conditions. Here we don’t have clarity as there is talk of rain, but I don’t think there will be drastic changes. But whatever conditions are available, based on that, we will make that decision,” Rohit said ahead of the historic 100th Test against the West Indies at the Queen's Park Oval," India captain Rohit Sharma has said while talking about India's possible playing eleven ahead of the first Test.

India are leading the 2-Test series 1-0 after winning the first Test in Dominica by an innings and 141-run. The Test match ended in three days.
