Tilak Varma gets a wicket on the second ball of his international career. He gets Nicholas Pooran and the partnership for the second wicket has finally broken.
End of Kuldeep Yadav's economical spell. He conceded only 18 runs in his quota of fours overs, though he remained wicketless. West Indies need 57 runs in 48 balls.
A four from Brandon King on the final delivery spoils the over of Mukesh Kumar. 10 runs came off it. West Indies need 70 runs in 60 balls. They are right on top of this game. India need some quick wickets to stay in hunt or it will soon be over for them.
Kuldeep Yadav has failed to get any wicket but he has managed to choke runs from one end. He has conceded only 16 runs in his three overs. West Indies need 80 runs in 66 balls.
Kuldeep Yadav conceded only three runs in his first over. He almost trapped Nicholas Pooran right in front the stumps but the batter got gloves on it and that saved him.
A length delivery from Arshdeep Singh and Kyle Mayers has edged it high in the air. Yashasvi Jaiswal takes a really good catch running behind at mid-off.
11 runs came off the first over bowled by Hardik Pandya. Kyle Mayers hit two fours in it. Both went to the boundary after taking outside edge of his bat.
A fuller ball down the leg stump by Jason Holder. Axar Patel left it well and India will get fives runs in total as wicketkeeper Nicholas Pooran fails to get there in time.
A third wicket for Romario Shepherd. He was hit for a six by Arshdeep Singh on the previous delivery and this time he has bowled a slower one to clean the batter up.
Suryakumar is out LBW. It was a good review from West Indies. A full toss delivery from Jason Holder saw Suryakumar missing his scoop shot. It hit him on front pad and he looked plumb at the beginnig. However, umpire thought otherwise. West Indies reviewed and they got the wicket.
16.3 - Hardik Pandya is out! It was a fuller ball and Hardik has hit it into the hands of long-on fielder, who ran a bit to his right before taking the catch comfortably. Just when it looked Hardik was back in his groove, he has to depart.
The play has been stopped due to rain. Covers have been brought on the field. It will be a short stoppage it seems as the rain is not much heavy. It looks like a light drizzle.
An inside out from Suryakumar Yadav on the first ball of Alzarri Joseph and the ball travels all over the boundary rope for a six. That sees SKY racing to his 15th T20I fifty in 38 balls. Can't say about other formats, but Suryakumar is certainly the best in this format.
This is so far an uncharacteristic knock from Suryakumar Yadav as he has scored 33 runs in 27 balls at a strike rate of 122.22, but India need him there till the end to post a fighting total on this surface. Batting has not been so easy in this game and Suryakumar's duration of stay will have a big say in India's chances in this game.
10.5 - A fuller ball from Romario Shepherd hit Suryakumar Yadav on the front pad as the batter missed his flick. Umpire was unconvinced with the appeal but West Indies went upstairs. Ball tracking revealed that it would have clipped the leg stump.
