West Indies innings (35 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
CH Gayle	c Kohli b Ahmed	72	64	41	8	5	175.60
11.4 good catch by Kohli diving forward at mid-off. Length ball outside off, Gayle flat-bats it but ends up hitting straight towards Kohli. Everybody is congratulating the big man. Smiles all around. Gayle acknowledges the crowd as he walks back. Think we have seen the last of him, at least in ODIs 121/2
E Lewis	c Dhawan b Chahal	43	57	29	5	3	148.27
10.5 fuller and just outside off, Lewis goes for the slog sweep but gets a top edge towards long-on, Dhawan keeps his calm to complete the catch despite a bit of wobble 115/1
SD Hope†	b Jadeja	24	61	52	1	0	46.15
25.4 gets his man! Hurries on to Hope this time, and he goes back expecting the ball to turn slowly again. Beaten for pace, as much as the lack of movement. Bowled all ends up, and this could actually be a double blessing in disguise for the West Indies. Unleash the lower order hitters already! 171/4
SO Hetmyer	b Mohammed Shami	25	51	32	1	0	78.12
24.5 foxed by the slower ball! Change up, pitched up, and he looks to flog this towards midwicket. The ball was an off-cutter, and it grips and slows up after pitching. He swings, misses and hears the death-rattle behind him. This could turn out to be a blessing in disguise, as neither Hope nor Hetmyer have been able to get a move-on, despite having just completed a 50-run partnership 171/3
N Pooran	c sub (MK Pandey) b Mohammed Shami	30	24	16	1	3	187.50
30.1 a soft dismissal in the end, fuller on the pads and Pooran just ends up chipping it to Manish Pandey at long-on. Played a handy knock of 30 off just 16 but West Indies would have preferred him to stay for a bit longer 211/5
JO Holder*	c Kohli b Ahmed	14	32	20	0	0	70.00
32.5 length ball around off, Holder clears his front leg and goes aerial, doesn't get the required elevation though and ends up hitting straight down Kohli's throat at long-on 221/6
CR Brathwaite	c †Pant b Ahmed	16	20	14	1	1	114.28
34.4 miscues the slog, was a slower length ball leaving the batsman, Brathwaite looks to pull it towards long-on but gets a top-edge, Pant jogs towards short fine leg and grabs it. He had his right glove off, so did well to take it 236/7

India innings (target: 255 runs from 35 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
RG Sharma	run out (Allen/Roach)	10	13	6	2	0	166.66
2.4 Roach to Dhawan, Rohit could be in trouble here! Appeal for run-out at the non-striker's end. And that is the first Indian wicket! Was cut away by Dhawan, and there was a good diving stop at point. Sharma had come a long way down the wicket, and by the time he was sent back by Dhawan, it was too late. The bal was rifled in to Roach, who picked it well and whipped the bails off before Sharma could regain his ground 25/1
S Dhawan	c Paul b Allen	36	53	36	5	0	100.00
12.2 goes down the track once again but cannot reach to the pitch of the ball, goes through the shot nonetheless, the ball hitting high on the bat and goes over mid-off, Paul pedals back and takes it over his shoulder 91/2
V Kohli*	not out	114	127	99	14	0	115.15

RR Pant†	c Paul b Allen	0	3	1	0	0	0.00
12.4 can you guess it!? Pant skips down the track first ball but ends up mistiming it towards mid-off. He was looking to go leg side but the bottom hand comes off as he cannot reach to the pitch. Paul once again pedals backwards and takes another good catch 92/3
SS Iyer	c Holder b Roach	65	65	41	3	5	158.53
28.2 fuller around off, goes aerial but ends up chipping straight to Holder at long-off, Iyer is disappointed with himself but West Indies have an opening, or do they? 212/4
