TOSS - The two captains are out in the middle. The coin toss lands in the favour of Shai Hope and the West Indies have opted to BOWL first.
Riding high on confidence from a comprehensive victory in the first ODI, India continued their ODI World Cup experimentation and rested Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. It was a collapse of some enormity as India, from a position of strength at 90-0, got rolled over for 181. With not a big total to defend, Indian bowlers gave it their all, but it just was not enough on the day. As India look to salvage pride by avoiding the series loss, will they bring back Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli? That is the big question. We are not that far away from finding out, as the toss and team news is coming up shortly.
In the second ODI, the West Indies did not begin well with the ball but pulled things back exceptionally well. Once the opening stand was broken, they never allowed India to string any partnerships together and skittled them out inside 37 overs. In pursuit of a modest total, the hosts did not find it easy, but Shai Hope and Keacy Carty got together to ensure there were no more hiccups in the chase. As a result, the West Indies find themselves in a position to win their first ODI series against India since 2006.
After India's thumping win in the first ODI, a 3-0 whitewash was looming large over the West Indies, and they needed something special to keep the series alive. Shai Hope's men stunned India with a spirited performance in the second ODI, and by doing so, they have given us a series decider to witness. Hello and a warm welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to our coverage of the 3rd ODI between the West Indies and India at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad.
