West Indies

169/10(37.1 Overs)

West Indies with their fragile batting lineup needed to take early wickets to restrict India to a chaseable score and they did just that, Alzarri Joseph getting rid of Sharma and Kohli in the same over yet again. Odean Smith with all his x-factor managed to get the wicket of struggling Dhawan in his first over. West Indies were denied wickets in the middle overs after that as the partnership build but Walsh provided the important breakthrough just when the game seems to be drifting away and the

When you talk about India playing an ODI game more often than not you will see top 3 or one of the top 3 playing a major role with the bat. However, it was not the case today as all three of them departed early. It was down to the rising stars of Indian cricket, Iyer and Pant to rebuild the innings. They did their job to perfection and stitched together a partnership of 110 runs. Both of them went on to get to their respective fifties on the way but Pant could not carry on and fell in the 30th

We are back for the chase!

...THE RUN CHASE…

Right then, India have posted a good score here and a Windies batters need to step up their game to chase this total down. They have failed to cross 200 in this series so far and it would not be an easy task even today. Can they grab 10 important World Cup Super League points? An interesting second-half of this game coming up.

India have gone past 260 here and they will be happy with this total after losing three early wickets. West Indies bowled well in the patches but with little more discipline they might have restricted India under 250 here. There is help for the bowlers in this pitch and India will fancy their chances of defending this total.

Shreyas Iyer is down for the chat. He says that it wasn't easy to bat early on as the ball was seaming and swinging and him and Shikhar decided just to take it slow. He adds that the bowlers were also not sticking to one line or length and it was a test of patience as batting did get easy later on. He mentions that the wicket was a bit two-paced and the opposition came out with a good bowling plan. He mentions that the score they have is a really good one on this surface but it might get easier

... MATCH DAY …

Hello and a warm welcome to the third and final ODI of this three-match ODI series between India and West Indies. India have already sealed the series with dominating performances in the first two ODIs and will be eyeing a whitewash here. West Indies, on the other hand, have a lot to ponder about and they will be desperate for a victory here with 10 World Cup Super League points up for grabs.

India were expected to win this series despite a poor performance in South Africa and they have lived up to the expectations. However, the bigger goal for India is to try out some players in specific positions in specific conditions and with Deepak Hooda and Suryakumar Yadav putting up good performances in the middle order, India will be quite happy with how things have panned out. Another concern was that India was not taking wickets in the middle overs and India have rectified that aspect of

West Indies, on the other hand, are facing similar problems they have faced in the past. Their batting group has failed to play out the allotted 50 overs and that hurt them in both the games so far. Shai Hope is the man they have been relying on in this format in recent times and it is high time that he delivers. The bowling has been pretty decent from the Windies and if their top-order can lay the foundation, they have the firepower to explode in the end. Can they lift their game and win this

PITCH REPORT - Deep Dasgupta is pitchside and he is joined by Ajit Agarkar. DDG says that there is a bit of breeze and it's exactly the same pitch as the last match. Ajit says that it is a lovely pitch and there was good bounce on offer for the faster bowlers but the same bounce might not be there as it looks more whitish. If the dew does come on, the sides might look to chase and DDG concludes by saying that it is a good ODI pitch with something in it for everyone.

The news going around is that we might see a couple of changes in the Indian side today. Kuldeep Yadav may get a look in. Meanwhile, Shikhar Dhawan is all set to be back at the top of the order. West Indies, on the other hand, might see their skipper, Kieron Pollard coming back.

West Indies with their fragile batting lineup needed to take early wickets to restrict India to a chaseable score and they did just that, Alzarri Joseph getting rid of Sharma and Kohli in the same over yet again. Odean Smith with all his x-factor managed to get the wicket of struggling Dhawan in his first over. West Indies were denied wickets in the middle overs after that as the partnership build but Walsh provided the important breakthrough just when the game seems to be drifting away and the

When you talk about India playing an ODI game more often than not you will see top 3 or one of the top 3 playing a major role with the bat. However, it was not the case today as all three of them departed early. It was down to the rising stars of Indian cricket, Iyer and Pant to rebuild the innings. They did their job to perfection and stitched together a partnership of 110 runs. Both of them went on to get to their respective fifties on the way but Pant could not carry on and fell in the 30th

We are back for the chase!

...THE RUN CHASE…

Right then, India have posted a good score here and a Windies batters need to step up their game to chase this total down. They have failed to cross 200 in this series so far and it would not be an easy task even today. Can they grab 10 important World Cup Super League points? An interesting second-half of this game coming up.

India have gone past 260 here and they will be happy with this total after losing three early wickets. West Indies bowled well in the patches but with little more discipline they might have restricted India under 250 here. There is help for the bowlers in this pitch and India will fancy their chances of defending this total.

Shreyas Iyer is down for the chat. He says that it wasn't easy to bat early on as the ball was seaming and swinging and him and Shikhar decided just to take it slow. He adds that the bowlers were also not sticking to one line or length and it was a test of patience as batting did get easy later on. He mentions that the wicket was a bit two-paced and the opposition came out with a good bowling plan. He mentions that the score they have is a really good one on this surface but it might get easier

Jason Holder to Mohammed Siraj, ! Cleaned up! Jason Holder gets his fourth and India have been bundled out on the final delivery of the innings. A slower length ball, angling into leg stump.

... MATCH DAY …

Hello and a warm welcome to the third and final ODI of this three-match ODI series between India and West Indies. India have already sealed the series with dominating performances in the first two ODIs and will be eyeing a whitewash here. West Indies, on the other hand, have a lot to ponder about and they will be desperate for a victory here with 10 World Cup Super League points up for grabs.

India were expected to win this series despite a poor performance in South Africa and they have lived up to the expectations. However, the bigger goal for India is to try out some players in specific positions in specific conditions and with Deepak Hooda and Suryakumar Yadav putting up good performances in the middle order, India will be quite happy with how things have panned out. Another concern was that India was not taking wickets in the middle overs and India have rectified that aspect of

West Indies, on the other hand, are facing similar problems they have faced in the past. Their batting group has failed to play out the allotted 50 overs and that hurt them in both the games so far. Shai Hope is the man they have been relying on in this format in recent times and it is high time that he delivers. The bowling has been pretty decent from the Windies and if their top-order can lay the foundation, they have the firepower to explode in the end. Can they lift their game and win this

PITCH REPORT - Deep Dasgupta is pitchside and he is joined by Ajit Agarkar. DDG says that there is a bit of breeze and it's exactly the same pitch as the last match. Ajit says that it is a lovely pitch and there was good bounce on offer for the faster bowlers but the same bounce might not be there as it looks more whitish. If the dew does come on, the sides might look to chase and DDG concludes by saying that it is a good ODI pitch with something in it for everyone.

The news going around is that we might see a couple of changes in the Indian side today. Kuldeep Yadav may get a look in. Meanwhile, Shikhar Dhawan is all set to be back at the top of the order. West Indies, on the other hand, might see their skipper, Kieron Pollard coming back.
