  • 21:42 (IST)

  • 21:06 (IST)

    India vs West Indies: FOUR!

    That’s a good fielding from Shardul Thakur in the deep but not good enough to save a boundary. Hope had played the Axar Patel delivery on square of the wicket that eventually ran for a four.

    WI 155/3 (28.1)

  • 21:04 (IST)

    India vs West Indies: Good Ball!

    Hooda got some great bounce from the pitch outside off stump but Pooran left it well. West Indies have 22 overs remaining in this game and the duo of Hope and Pooran should target a score near to 300 or beyond if possible.

    WI 151/3 (28)

  • 21:01 (IST)

    India vs West Indies: 150 Up For West Indies

    Despite losing three wickets so far, West Indies are still looking good at the moment. While Shai Hope has dug in his heels at one end with his unbeaten 65, he will be needing help from Pooran to take the side to a good total.

    WI 150/3 (27.2) 

  • 20:57 (IST)

    India vs West Indies: Avesh looks to settle

    Avesh Khan is not having a good debut so far as West Indies batters have taken a special liking to him, he would hope to bowl dot balls and build some pressure. West Indies 148/3 in 26.5 overs. 

  • 20:48 (IST)

    India vs West Indies: What A Shot!

    That’s a sensational drive from Hope. It was a tad full from Avesh and Hope played it beautfully to the left of mid-off for a four. A boundary was written all over it as soon as Hope played the magical shot from the front foot.

    WI 139/3 (24.1)
