World Cup: West Indies win toss, elect to bat first
Perth, Mar 6 (IBNS): West Indies on Friday won the toss and elected to bat first in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 match against India at the W.A.C.A Ground in Perth in Australia on Friday.
As India celebrates the traditional festival of Holi, much of the playing with colours will get drowned by the match on Friday.
With 3/3 wins, India are virtually through to the last-eight stage.
The match is very crucial for West Indies.
