Inn Break
So, a Kohli masterclass in the 1st game and then the visitors went bang bang in the second one to level the series. And, we witnessed a sixathon here at the Wankhede with Kohli's men lifting the trophy, with a win in the decider. What's next? Well, West Indies will look to challenge the Indians in the 50-over format in the three match series. The first one of those starts on Sunday, 15th December, 2019 at 1.30 pm local (0800 GMT). We will love to have your company for that game. Till then, cheers and take care.
VIRAT KOHLI GETS THE MAN OF THE SERIES. The Indian skipper, starts by saying that they have been speaking a lot of about batting first. Tells that he had a chance to do something different than what he does. Adds that he told Rahul that he will look to smash as many balls as possible and Rahul to hold one end. Tells that it is a special innings for him and says that it is a gift on his second wedding anniversary. On putting the big total, Kohli says that to gain confidence, one needs to score a massive total. Tells that Rahul and Rohit started brilliantly and they tried to get 25-30 extra runs by playing attacking cricket. Talking about hitting fours and sixes, the Indian skipper feels that it depends on which ground one is playing. Tells that boundaries in such games play a major roll. Feels that things can be different when one goes to Australia for the World Cup as the boundary sizes can be different there.
MAN OF THE MATCH GOES TO KL RAHUL FOR A BRILLIANT 91-RUN KNOCK. He starts by saying that Rohit and Virat were more destructive than him. Says that they are happy with the result and mentions that every game is important leading to the T20I World Cup. Talking about batting first, Rahul says that a lot of talk is going around that. Tells that they tried to put on a good total which the bowlers can defend. Says that leading to the World Cup in Australia, they would like to bat first more often. On the various formats, Rahul says that formats doesn't really matter as once the batter is set, run scoring becomes easy. Tells that his role is pretty clear to him and he tries his best to help his side win the game.
West Indies skipper, Kieron Pollard, says that he wants to take positives from the entire series. Tells that scoring 200 runs consistently is not easy. Says that they need to execute with the ball better but insists that it is work in progress. On the target, Pollard says that such totals have been chased here. Talking on Indian openers, Pollard says that they exploded from the start and did not allow the inexperienced bowlers to settle. On the upcoming T20 World Cup, Pollard says that there are a lot of young players in their domestic ranks. Tells that to succeed, one needs to work hard day in and day out.
Kumar says that he was happy that he got the wicket of Pollard. States that he is a good player and says that one can expect to be hit when he is batting. On how to get him out, he says that they can't bowl length balls to him and they have to rely on bowling bouncers. Adds that the outfield is fast and ball travels fast so it is difficult to bowl on this wicket. Stay tuned for the presentation.
Earlier, the Indian top order went full throttle as they put on a massive total in front of the visitors. Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul added a massive 135-run stand for the opening wicket to give India a flying start. Then came the skipper, he was at his aggressive best during his 29-ball 70 to help India post such a massive mountain in front of the visitors. Before we get to the presentation, we've got Bhuvneshwar Kumar chatting with Sanjay Manjrekar.
As long as Indian bowling is concerned, Chahar, Kumar and Shami started brilliantly and ended up two wickets apiece. While Kumar got some thrashing, the duo of Chahar and Shami gave just 45 runs between them for 4 wickets. Kuldeep too was expensive in his four overs but the way Pollard was hitting and with dew on the ground, can't completely blame the bowler. With Pollard's onslaught going on, they kept their cool and eventually got the wicket of him. And once the Windies skipper departed, it was nothing but over for the visitors.
Indians started brilliantly with the ball and pegged the run chase with three quick wickets, with each of them coming from the three Indian pacers. However, Hetmyer and Pollard with a brilliant 74-run stand kept the Windies in the hunt. Hetmyer fell on a long hop to Kuldeep and things looked to go beyond the visitors. However, Pollard did not give up and continued going bonkers. He smashed 6 sixes and 5 fours on his way to 68. He miscued one off Kumar and with his wicket the series was done and dusted there itself.
That's it then. Another series win for Kohli's men at home. The domination from the Men in Blue continue. West Indies, courtesy a brilliant half ton from Pollard and a whipping 41 from Hetmyer did present some fight after a very poor start. However, once Pollard departed, things were beyond the reach of the visitors.

NOT OUT! Hetmyer survives and India lose their sole review. Good length ball around leg, Hetmyer looks to flick but misses and gets hit on the pads. The ball rolls towards the off side and the batters cross for a leg bye. The Indian players are up in appeal in the meantime but the umpire is unmoved. Kohli talks with his teammates and signals the 'T' after some thought. Replays come in and show that it is pitching outside leg. No further evidence needed and India lose their review. At the end of the Powerplay, West Indies are 41/3.
LBW appeal taken upstairs. Bhuvneshwar is confident and hence Kohli has gone for the DRS. Is it pitching in line? No, not really, confirms the Ball Tracker. So review lost for the Indians.

Deepak Chahar To Nicholas Pooran OUT!
OUT! What a fine catch from Dube at third man and a first-ball duck for Pooran. A short ball outside off, Pooran reaches out and looks to carve it over the deep point fence. The timing is not great and it goes uppishly towards deep point. Dube from deep third man runs towards deep point and gobbles the catch with a slide. Kohli is delighted. Three quick wickets for the Indians and the run chase is already in limbo for the visitors.
Nicholas Pooran is in early in the run chase. Deepak Chahar returns too. He was in his bowling stride but bailed out at the end.

Mohammed Shami To Lendl Simmons OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Another Windies batter departs and this time it is Lendl Simmons. Length ball outside off, Simmons looks to have a slash at it. The ball goes off the outside edge into the night sky. Shreyas Iyer from point runs behind and keeping his eyes fixed at the ball. takes a very good catch. Shami strikes in his first over and delight for the Indians.
Not a very good news coming in for the visitors. Lewis has gone to hospital for a checkup on his right knee and it is highly unlikely that he will come to bat.

He is already halfway down the track and Shami has collected the ball. Shami turns and has a shy at the stumps but just about misses the stumps at the non-striker's end.
