Right then, India will be pleased with their batting effort and Hardik Pandya will be confident enough that his bowlers can get the job done. On the other hand, West Indies will need to bat out of their skins if they are to clinch an ODI series win against India for the first time in 17 years. Can Shai Hope and Co. rise to the challenge? We shall find out when we return in a bit for the chase...
Sanju Samson is in for a chat. He says that the aggressive intent was kind of deliberate. Mentions the wicket was a bit slow and hence used his feet as well. Adds that being an Indian cricketer is a challenging thing. He has been around the domestic circuit for a long time. States that this wicket looks a bit dry, the ball was coming on nicely early on, but as it got old the ball was holding a bit. Credit to the rest of the batters, we have worked really hard to get 351 on the board. Believes that with the bowlers in the rank, they can certainly get over the line here.
As far as West Indies are concerned, they would be disappointed, having allowed India to get to a huge total. With the new ball, they were unable to get any early breakthrough nor they were able to keep the Indian openers in check. Moreover, the dropped catch of Ishan Kishan when he was on 9 made matters worse for them. They lacked discipline in their bowling and could not find any sort of control in the first 30 overs. However, they pulled things back during the 32-40 overs phase by drying up the boundaries. That said, they were unable to bowl well at the death, conceding 41 runs in the last 3 overs.
Hardik Pandya's late flourish has helped India finish on a high! They have posted a massive 351 on the board in this series decider. After Shai Hope won the coin toss and inserted India into bat, Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill were quick to get off the blocks and got their side off to a flying start. Kishan continued his brilliant run of form and notched up his 4th fifty of the West Indies tour while Gill who was having a lean run, found his touch as well. Coming in at number 4, Sanju Samson made his intentions clear straightaway and took on the bowlers right from ball one before departing shortly after reaching his fifty. After his dismissal, India slowed up a bit which also brought about the downfall of Shubman Gill. That's when India's stand-in skipper Hardik Pandya stepped up and took India over 350 with his onslaught, scoring an unbeaten 70 off 52 balls.
