On a Ravichandran Ashwin delivery, which seemed to have been bowled wide on the leg side as Jason Holder showed intent to advance down the pitch to hit the off-spinner, was duly collected by Dhoni behind the stumps and another magical stumping was produced.

Set a target of 252 at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua to prevent the visitors taking an unbeatable 2-0 series lead, the hosts were on course with Jason Mohammed and Rovman Powell in full flow in a 54-run sixth-wicket partnership.


But then India`s frontline spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Ravichandran Ashwin swung the match decisively in their team`s favour.


From a promising position of 141 for five in the 33rd over, the Caribbean side crashed to 158 all out within the next five overs.
