Commentary

  • 18.3

    FOUR! Deepak Chahar to Nicholas Pooran. Slower ball short, down leg side on the back foot pulling, well timed past deep mid wicket for 4 runs. Pooran seals things with a rambunctious swat and the celebrations begin in the West Indies dugout.

    West Indies have beaten India by 8 wickets in Thiruvananthapuram to level the T20I series, chasing 171 with nine deliveries to spare. Lendl Simmons and Evin Lewis laid the platform with a mature opening stand of 73 and the former kicked on to register a fine half century. That allowed explosive left-handers Shimron Hetmyer and Nicholas Pooran to play freely and charge to the target with ease in the end. India will regret a couple of dropped catches that ended up costing them dearly, despite a spectacular grab by captain Virat Kohli on the rope. Earlier in the day Shivam Dube smashed a maiden T20I fifty, showing impressive ability to get used to the slow surface before teeing off. In the end their total of 170/7 fell short of what was required as the dew came into effect and the tourists took advantage. That means we are set up for a thrilling conclusion to the series in Mumbai on Tuesday.

    FOUR! Bhuvneshwar Kumar to Nicholas Pooran. Length ball, off stump on the front foot driving, well timed past deep extra cover for 4 runs. Crunched to the fence, Pooran doesn't want to finish this in singles. He is going to keep smashing it until this is done and dusted.

    APPEAL! Deepak Chahar to Nicholas Pooran. Length ball, middle stump on the front foot driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to long off for 2 runs, dropped catch by Iyer, fielded by Sharma, appeal made for Run Out.

Nailed hard and flat, Jadeja puts in a full length dive and can't quite get there. That would've been even better than Kohli's catch if he'd pulled it off.
