Right then, India have posted a respectable total, but they need their bowlers to be on point right from the start and make early inroads to put pressure on the batters. West Indies have a long batting line-up and they will be confident of gunning this total down, but they also need to bat a bit sensibly. Joins us in a bit to see how the chase unfolds and which team wins this series.

West Indies, on the other hand, were hot and cold with their bowling effort. Akeal Hosein gave them a perfect by getting rid of both Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal pretty quickly. However, Alzarri Joseph proved to be very expensive and they let India get back in the game. Roston Chase then broke the partnership with a terrific diving catch to dismiss Tilak Varma while Romario Shepherd followed it up with two wickets as well. They were brilliant at the death and use the two rain-breaks to their advantage to break the momentum of India. Shephard ended up with four wickets while Jason Holder also chipped in with a couple in the end.

The Indian openers failed to continue their good form and were back in the hut inside the first two overs. It was the 49-run stand between Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma that steadied things and brought back control for them. SKY lost a few partners at the other end but that didn't bother him much as he registered another fantastic fifty. Sanju Samson failed to grab his opportunity and Hardik Pandya struggled as well, but along with that knock from SKY, a few lusty blows from Axar Patel, and a last-ball boundary from Mukesh Kumar got them over the 160-run mark.

A good battle between bat and ball comes to an end! West Indies have restricted India to 165/9! The pendulum swung both ways with Windies picking up wickets at regular intervals courtesy of a fine spell from Romario Shepherd, but Suryakumar Yadav fought a lone battle for the visitors with a gritty half-century which helped them to get to this total.

19.6 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Edged away and that will do nicely for Mukesh Kumar and India. Back of a length around off, Kumar has a wild swing across the line but gets a thick outside edge well past the keeper and the ball runs away into the third man fence. 16 runs come off the final over and India finish with 165/9!

Mukesh Kumar is the last man in.

19.5 overs (0 Run) OUT! TAKEN! Jason Holder strikes and Axar Patel has to depart now as well. Slower short ball, it is the off cutter infact, outside off. Axar Patel tries to make room and alshs it over short third but ends up hitting it straight to the man there. Romario Shepherd takes a sharp catch around his face and Holder picks up his seocnd wicket.

We are back again! The covers are off to and the players are out in the middle. Axar Patel and Yuzvendra Chahal to resume batting for India. Jason Holder to finish the last two balls of the innings

The rain has returned! The umpires have asked for the covers to be back on the field and we are in for another delay. Stay tuned for the latest updates.

19.4 overs (2 Runs) In the air but safe! Banged in a bit around off, Axar Patel looks to take it on and pull it over long on but the connection is a poor one. Rovman Powell comes in from long on but the ball falls short and the batters manage to scamper through for the second run as well.

19.3 overs (6 Runs) SIX! BANG! A juicy full toss on off, Axar Patel clears the front leg and smokes it over the long off fence for a biggie. 10 runs off the over already.

19.2 overs (4 Runs) FOUR BYES! Oh, my that one has gone through everything. Jason Holder looks for the yorker on leg stump and Axar Patel tries to move out of the way. The ball just eludes Patel and even goes past the keeper, rolling away into the fine leg fence.

19.1 overs (0 Run) Full and angling into leg, Axar Patel flicks it away to deep mid-wicket and decides not to take the single.

Jason Holder to bowl the last over (3-0-20-1)

Yuzvendra Chahal comes out to the middle now. Romario Shepherd is on a hat-trick as well.

18.5 overs (0 Run) OUT! LBW! Half an appeal for LBW but it is turned down and at the last moment, Rovman Powell decides to review it. Romario Shepherd bowls this on a good length around off, angling it in. Kuldeep Yadav is caught on the crease as he looks to block but gets beaten on the inside edge and gets pinged on the pads. Powell reviews and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds eventually. Shepherd on a hat-trick and also has a chance of a five-wicket haul now.

Kuldeep Yadav is the next man in.

18.4 overs (0 Run) OUT! TIMBER! Great comeback from Romario Shepherd and he gets his third wicket now. Pulls the length back and angles it in from wide of the crease, right at the stumps. Arshdeep Singh hangs back and gives himself room trying to slog across the line but misses and sees the furniture behind him get disturbed.

18.3 overs (6 Runs) SIX! Oh, that is a shot and a half! Full and angled into middle, Arshdeep Singh just makes a bit of room and uses his wrists to just chip it right back over the bowler's end and the ball ends up going the distance.

18.2 overs (1 Run) Banged in a bit over middle, Axar Patel stands tall and pulls it to deep mid-wicket for just one more.

17.5 overs (0 Run) OUT! LBW! Terrific review from West Indies and Suryakumar Yadav has to walk back with still a couple of overs or so left. Jason Holder bowls a clever leg cutter and floats it onto middle and leg. The ball is a low full toss that dips on the batter. Yadav looks to get inside the line and scoop it away but misses and gets hit on the pads. Holder seems confident but it is turned down. Rovman Powell is forced into reviewing it and UltraEdge shows that there's no bat involved. Ball Tracking comes up with three reds and SKY departs after a solid knock.

15.6 overs (2 Runs) Hard length from Alzarri Joseph, Suryakumar Yadav punches it down the ground and picks up a couple of runs.

We are back again! The players are out in the middle as Suryakumar Yadav ​​​​Hardik Pandya are ready to resume the innings of India. Alzarri Joseph to finish his incomplete over. However, before that, the groundstaff are putting some sawdust on some wet patches in the pitch. Now, we are ready to go...

UPDATE - 9.32 pm IST (4.02 am GMT) - Good news folks! It has stopped raining and the covers are coming off now. We should not be far away from the restart.

Oh..no! The rain has gotten heavier now and the umpires have asked for the covers. The players are making their way out of the ground now, but we hope that it is not a long delay.

15.5 overs (1 Run) Slower and a bit shorter over leg stump, Hardik Pandya looks to pull but mistimes it badly. The ball goes toward square leg and they pick up a single.

15.4 overs (0 Run) DROPPED! A difficult chance goes down now. Full toss from Alzarri Joseph at middle, Hardik Pandya is a bit late and ends up punching it right back at the bowler who, on his followthrough, sticks out both hands to his right but fails to grab it.

15.4 overs (1 Run) Wide! Attempted slower one, a bit shorter and angled down the leg side for a wide.

15.3 overs (0 Run) Fullish length, angling it into the pads, Hardik Pandya looks to flick it away but is beaten for pace. The ball thuds into the pads and rolls toward backward point/

15.2 overs (1 Run) Full and on the pads, flicked away uppishly in front of mid-wicket for a single.

15.1 overs (6 Runs) SIX! All the way! Yet another FIFTY for the number one T20I batter in the world and Suryakumar Yadav is relentless. Slower one, overpitched outside off and Yadav picks the length early, gets under it and lofts it over the long off fence for a maximum.
