Kanpur: Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss in the third one-day international against Kanpur here this morning and elected to field first.
Ajinkya Rahane was not given a chance to play today.
After the toss Dhoni said, even if it looks as the flattest wicket, there was still something for the bowlers here. Batsman may have to adjust.
West Indies skipper said: We would have bowled as well if we had won the toss. It is a big opportunity for us to win a series against a high-ranked opposition away from home. Personally it will be big for me, he added.
