India vs West Indies, Highlights 2nd ODI: With Century, Shai Hope Helps Windies Tie Second ODI

Riding on terrific century from middle-order batsman Shai Hope (123 not out), the Windies team salvaged a draw against India in the second one-day international (ODI) in Visakhapatnam on Wednesday. The 24-year-old played brilliantly under pressure but failed to take his team across the line in a final-over thriller. With five runs required on the final delivery, Hope could only manage a boundary as both the teams ended on identical scores of 321. Chasing a tricky target of 322, the Windies team got off to a poor start as they lost openers Kieran Powell (18) and Chandrapaul Hemraj (32) early. Post the departure of the opening batsmen, Shai Hope and Shimron Hetmyer stitched together a crucial 143-run partnership for the fourth wicket, keeping their team in the hunt. Hetmyer was looking set for his fourth ODI ton but departed on the score of 94. After the departure of Hetmyer, skipper Jason Holder (12) and Hope shared another crucial 47-run stand, taking the team close to the target. Windies required 20 runs from the final 12 deliveries but failed to get past the Indian total. For India, Kuldeep Yadav was the most successful bowler as he clinched three wickets. India lead the 5-match series 1-0. (SCORECARD) 

Earlier, in the first innings swashbuckling Virat Kohli produced another masterclass as India scored 321 runs for the loss of six wickets. Continuing his terrific run with the bat, Kohli notched up his 37th century in ODI cricket, scoring an unbeaten 157 of just 129 deliveries. After winning the toss, India opted to bat but got off to a poor start. Rohit Sharma(4) departed eraly hitting a poor shot, straight into the hands of the point fielder. Shikhar Dhawan (29), followed his partner soon, leaving the India in a spot of bother. But Virat Kohli and Ambati Rayudu stitched a terrific 139-run partnership taking the team out of trouble. Ambati Rayudu was looking in sublime form but got out bowled trying to heave on of the ball from Ashley Nurse. MS Dhoni (20) and Rishabh Pant (17) got dismissed looking to get some quick runs for the team but Virat Kohli remained solid at the other end. During his unbeaten knock, Kohli also became the fastest player to cross 10,000-run mark in ODI cricket.

12:30 IST: Hello and welcome to the live commentary from the second One-Day International (ODI) between India and the Windies. 

In Guwahati, India unleashed their batting might as Kohli and opener Rohit Sharma, arguably the two best batsmen in the 50-over game at the moment, smashed big hundreds in quick time. Finishing the game with eight overs to spare was a statement of sorts and another blow to the West Indies' morale. However, despite the convincing margin of victory, India will be better off with a bit of frugality from their bowlers at the Dr. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium.

Besides, India are unlikely to get enough opportunities to test their middle-order against this West Indies attack, what with the home team's top three batsmen in the mood to plunder runs. But the lack of enough game-time for their middle-order may not hold India in good stead in the run-up to the World Cup. As far as the upcoming match is concerned, Kohli knows his team is thin in the bowling department, and West Indies made full use of the weakness, though the visiting team's attack too, was taken to the task under lights. In the absence of 'death overs specialist' Jasprit Bumrah and the reliable Bhuvneshwar Kumar, the Indian seamers were not up to the mark at the Barsapara Stadium.
