So India need to chase down a big total of 316 if they are to win the series. West Indies have a good total to defend. Dew might not be their friend but can they find a way to negate it or will India once again chase down a total of in excess of 300 and seal yet another bilateral series? Join us after the break to find out.
The star of the innings, Nicholas Pooran is up now for a quick chat with Ian Bishop. Pooran starts by thanking Jesus for the opportunity he has got. He says he is satisfied with his innings and they just tried to execute their plans. Tells that he was not thinking about his personal score and was just looking to help his team. On the pitch, he says though the boundaries are big here the wicket is a good one to bat on. On what he thinks of the total on board, he says it is a good total and they are confident and hopes that dew does not trouble them.
India started off well with the ball. They kept things tight at the start and were also picked up wickets at regular intervals but as Pollard and Pooran continued, the hosts lost control and they were carted away. Navdeep Saini bowled well in patches and that ball to pick up Chase was a corker but he succumbed to the pressure of the death overs. He was hammered all around the park. Not only him, Shami, Yadav and Thakur were taken apart in the end and they have a huge score to chase on the board.
53 runs in the last three overs has propelled West Indies to a total well above 300. It was Nicholas Pooran and Kieron Pollard at the end which helped them get to this mark. What a performance! The visitors started slowly with Shai Hope and Evin Lewis getting to a 50-run stand in the 13th over. Then India made a comeback with two quick wickets. Roston Chase and Shimron Hetmyer steadied the ship with another 50-run stand but they too got out in quick succession. Then, came the match defining partnership between Nicholas Pooran and Kieron Pollard. They stitched a record-breaking stand of 135 runs and by the time Pooran fell for a magnificent 89 runs, West Indies were well on their way to 300. Pollard, continued on his merry way, and his 10th ODI fifty got them to a total of 315 in their fifty overs.
