India is best team in home conditions: Phil Simmons

Cuttack: Ahead of the series decider, West Indies coach Phil Simmons on Saturday said India is the best side in home conditions.

Addressing the media persons, Phil said that the Caribbean team is performing well and is giving Team India a tough fight in this series.

"India is the best team in home conditions and for us to be playing we are and giving them a run, it's great for us to see," Simmons said at a pre-match press conference.

The coach said that 320 should be the minimum score you must be looking for when you are playing against India.

"Especially playing against India, you always get to be looking at 320 to make it or chase it," he said.
