For the West Indies, it is to regain the pride that lies in tatters after three demoralizing defeats.
Captain Darren Sammy has struggled to explain why his players are finding in heavy conditions at home against an opposition that is without its top stars.
It 'been vocal in his criticism of the apparent lack of demand from his players.
Sammy blamed the lack of "killer instinct" as a reason for the team not being able to win.
He admitted that the batsmen were not up to running the label and that he expected a bit 'fast bowler Kemar Roach more.
"We were always runs at the top. We just lacked the finishing touch. On our bowling, Kemar is one of our strike bowlers and we needed a little 'more from him. But I can not blame anyone who has did a good job in recent months. If you put the ball in the right areas, you may bear fruit on this wicket, "Sammy said.
What is encouraging for the West Indies is the inspiration to knock Russell. A hurricane unbeaten 92 from number nine hitter is just the kind of inspiration the host batsmen to hit big in the remaining two matches and make the final score more respectable.
An unbeatable 3-0 in hand, India would now aim for a clean sweep, while trying new players when they take a side demoralized West Indies in the fourth game of the five matches irrelevant one-day international series here tomorrow.
Led by Suresh Raina, India's second string team gave a good account of itself dominating the struggling Caribbean, which has been further weakened by the lack of big hitting Chris Gayle and Dwayne Bravo as reliable performers.
