प्लेयर ऑफ द मैच
  • 19.6

    Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Denesh Ramdin. Slower ball back of a length, outside off stump on the front foot pulling, to long off for 2 runs, fielded by Kohli.

    Excellent score on the board from West Indies. Lewis got things off to an electric start, King was impressive as well, then Hetymer and Pollard powered the middle overs. An important cameo from Holder at the end pushed the visitors to 207, which will be tough to chase down. India were a bit shambolic in the field. Lots of drops, and not much intensity. That could cost them in the end. They need to be brilliant with the bat if they are to win this one.

  • 19.5

    Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Denesh Ramdin. Slower length ball, wide outside off stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep extra cover for 2 runs, fielded by Sundar.

  • 19.4

    Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Jason Holder. Half volley, outside off stump Deep in crease driving, to extra cover for 1 run, fielded by Sundar.

  • 19.3

    SIX! Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Jason Holder. Length ball, outside off stump Deep in crease driving, well timed in the air under control over long off for 6 runs. It creeps over the rope for six more! Terrific hitting at the end of this innings from Holder. Gets the length he was after, and lifted it over the long off fence.

  • 19.2

    Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Jason Holder. Half volley, outside off stump Deep in crease driving, to long off for 2 runs, fielded by Kohli.

  • 19.1

    FOUR! Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Jason Holder. Back of a length, outside off stump on the front foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled past long off for 4 runs, dropped catch by Kohli. Another one down, but this is a very difficult chance. Kohli sprints round at long off, sticks out a hand, but it bounces off the palm and into the rope.

  • 18.6

    Deepak Chahar to Jason Holder. Slower length ball, outside off stump on the front foot Slog, bottom edge to gully for 1 run, fielded by Chahal.

  • 18.5

    SIX! Deepak Chahar to Jason Holder. Length ball, outside off stump Deep in crease driving, well timed in the air under control over long on for 6 runs. That's a beauty from Holder. Perfect hitting length, and he nails it straight back over the bowler for six.

  • 18.4

    Deepak Chahar to Jason Holder. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, in the air under control to deep mid wicket for 2 runs, fielded by Kohli.

  • 18.3

    Over 18. 11 runs. Bowler: Kieron Pollard. India: 193/4 (rr 10.72)
  • 17.6

    Yuzvendra Chahal to Denesh Ramdin. Leg spinner length ball, middle stump on the front foot working, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Rahul.

  • 17.5

    FOUR! Yuzvendra Chahal to Denesh Ramdin. Leg spinner length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed past deep extra cover for 4 runs, mis-fielded by Chahar. More dodgy fielding from India. It's Chahar this time who puts in a lazy effort running round from long off. Should have easily been stopped.

  • 17.4

    Yuzvendra Chahal to Denesh Ramdin. Leg spinner length ball, outside off stump on the back foot pushing, to short extra cover for no runs, fielded by Kohli.

  • 17.3

    OUT! Bowled. Yuzvendra Chahal to Kieron Pollard. Slider length ball, middle stump on the front foot driving, missed to. Two in three balls for Chahal. Out the front of the hand, and it just slides through the gate to clip the leg stump. Pollard was expecting turn, and didn't get any. Superb bowling.

  • 17.2

    Yuzvendra Chahal to Jason Holder. Leg spinner half volley, off stump on the front foot driving, to long off for 1 run, fielded by Iyer.

  • 17.1

    OUT! Caught. Yuzvendra Chahal to Shimron Hetmyer. Leg spinner half volley, down leg side on the front foot slog sweeping, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep backward square leg, by Sharma. Finally he holds onto one! Rohit didn't have to wait long to make up for the drops. Hetmyer has been strong on the sweep tonight, but just doesn't get the elevation to clear the fence this time. Sharma doesn't have to move, and gobbles up the chance.

  • की समाप्ति के बाद Over 17
    Over 17. 5 runs. Bowler: Sheldon Cottrell. India: 182/3 (rr 10.71)
  • 16.6

    Deepak Chahar to Shimron Hetmyer. Short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, to deep mid wicket for 1 run, fielded by Jadeja.

  • 16.5

    Deepak Chahar to Kieron Pollard. Half volley, outside off stump Deep in crease flick, to long on for 1 run, fielded by Sharma.

  • 16.4

    SIX! Deepak Chahar to Kieron Pollard. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. That rubs salt into the wound. Pollard pounces on that length, and dispatches it over mid wicket for a ginormous six.

  • 16.3

    SIX! Deepak Chahar to Kieron Pollard. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled over long on for 6 runs, dropped catch by Sharma. Three drops on the bounce! What is happening to India tonight? Drilled straight into the hands of Rohit at long on, and it pops out over the rope for six. Terrible.

  • 16.2

    Deepak Chahar to Kieron Pollard. Short, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on for 2 runs, run save by Sharma. Gone down again. It turns into magical stop from Rohit in the end. He initially misjudges the flight of the ball, slips, but then track back and goes for the one hander. It sticks in the right hand, but he then realises he's falling over the rope. A little flick back prevents extra runs.

  • 16.1

    Deepak Chahar to Shimron Hetmyer. Length ball, down leg side down the track driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long on for 1 run, dropped catch by Sundar, run save by Sharma. Shelled at long on! Sundar runs round, it isn't easy, but he gets two hands to it. Off balance, and put down. Those should probably be taken at this level.

  • की समाप्ति के बाद Over 16
    Over 16. 23 runs. Bowler: Kesrick Williams. India: 174/2 (rr 10.88)
  • 15.6

    Yuzvendra Chahal to Shimron Hetmyer. Leg spinner length ball, to leg on the front foot sweeping, inside edge to short fine leg for no runs, fielded by Sundar.

  • 15.3

    SIX! Yuzvendra Chahal to Shimron Hetmyer. Googly half volley, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control over long off for 6 runs. What a way to bring up the fifty. Hetmyer goes flat down the ground, and it fizzes over the rope for half a dozen. Super innings from Shimron. His maiden T20i fifty, too.

  • 15.2

    Yuzvendra Chahal to Kieron Pollard. Leg spinner length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, to long off for 1 run, fielded by Iyer.

  • 15.1

    Yuzvendra Chahal to Shimron Hetmyer. Leg spinner length ball, down leg side on the back foot pulling, top edge in the air uncontrolled to short fine leg for 1 run, fielded by Sundar.

  • 18.4

    SIX! Kesrick Williams to Virat Kohli. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control over deep extra cover for 6 runs. Ends it with his sixth maximum. Crushed over the offside again, and it flies like a bullet over the rope. What a way to do it.

    It's hard to describe how brilliant Virat Kohli is sometimes. He was a little scratchy in his first 30-odd balls, but made sure he was there till the end, and began to flourish beautifully to get India home with eight balls to spare. KL Rahul played his hand in the chase, too, with a sublime 62. But all the headlines will be with the Indian skipper. West Indies didn't do too badly today. Not the best performance with the ball, but they were just out-classed by a magnificent innings. India go 1-0 up in the three match series. Join us again on Sunday for the second match.

  • 18.3

  • 18.2

    SIX! Kesrick Williams to Virat Kohli. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, well timed in the air under control over deep extra cover for 6 runs. Kohli is dragging India across the line by himself here. It's another one that is smoked over extra cover, and it flies into the crowd for six more.

  • 18.1

    OUT! Caught & Bowled. Kieron Pollard to Shreyas Iyer. Leg cutter back of a length, outside off stump on the back foot pulling, to silly mid off, by Pollard. Awesome from Kieron Pollard. Iyer smashes it back to him in his follow-through, and he snaps up a sharp chance diving to his left. Didn't have long to react, but he made it look easy.

  • 17.5

    Kieron Pollard to Virat Kohli. Back of a length, outside off stump down the track driving, well timed to long off for 1 run, fielded by Holder.

  • 17.4

    APPEAL! Kieron Pollard to Shreyas Iyer. Length ball, off stump on the front foot flick, hit pad to square leg for 1 run, fielded by Simmons, appeal made for L.B.W. Waste of a review from West Indies. Everyone knows that this is missing leg stump by some distance. Pointless exercise really.

  • 17.2

    SIX! Kieron Pollard to Virat Kohli. Slower length ball, off stump on the front foot defending, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. Clipped off the pads wonderfully by Kohli. The wrists are so good as well. Strong shot from the Indian captain.

    ऋषभ पंत c Jason Holder b Sheldon Cottrell 18 (9)

    OUT! Caught. Sheldon Cottrell to Rishabh Pant. Leg cutter length ball, outside off stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long off, by Holder. Nice change of pace from Cottrell. Pant doesn't spot it, and he totally miscues when trying to clear the ropes. Holder jogs in from the fence to take an easy grab.

    SIX! Kesrick Williams to Virat Kohli. Length ball, outside off stump on the front foot flick, well timed in the air under control over deep mid wicket for 6 runs. What an outrageous shot. Loads of bottom hand, whipping it from outside off over wide long on. Insane batting.

  • 15.2

    FOUR! Kesrick Williams to Virat Kohli. Half volley, to leg on the front foot driving, well timed past long on for 4 runs. Kohli has nearly wiped out the bowler in his follow-through. A check drive, but the timing is so good, that it whistles away and hits the rope in no time.
