High bowling spells from spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and pacers Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur helped India crush West Indies by 119 runs (DLS methodology) within the rain-hit third and last ODI of the sequence right here on the Queen’s Park Oval on Thursday.
“It was a troublesome one for us. We did numerous proper issues within the first two video games. I believe we tried our greatest, the boys carried out effectively. However there have been numerous video games in a brief span of time,” stated Pooran on the post-match presentation.
Rain lower India’s innings quick to 225/3 in 36 overs, as openers Shikhar Dhawan (58) Shubman Gill (98 not out) led the batting charts with a partnership of 113 on the high.
Chasing a revised DLS goal of 257 in 35 overs, West Indies batters by no means appeared to be within the recreation. The hosts fell prey to a world-class bowling assault with their careless shot-selection and have been bowled out for 137 in 26 overs.
