Trinidad, August 14: Virat Kohli made his 43rd ODI hundred and second on the trot while Shreyas Iyer made a fine fifty as India beat West Indies by 6 wickets in the third and final ODI here after rain played havoc in the early part of the game. India won the ODI series 2-0. The showers forced the match to be a 35-overs-per-side affair. WI made 240 in 35 overs and India chased down DLS target of 255.
India will face West Indies in the third and final ODI here at Port of Spain on Wednesday (August 14). India had won the second ODI quite convincingly and will be looking to wrap the series.
And West Indies will be keen to level the series with a win here. But for that they need to produce a vastly improved effort with both bat and ball. Here's MyKhel Live Score of India vs West Indies third ODI.
End of ODI series. See you back during the Test series beginning on August 22 at Antigua
Hundred for Kohli -- 43rd in ODIs and second on the trot in this series. And not surprisingly India beat WI by 6 wickets wrap the ODI series 2-0.
50 partnership between Kohli and Shreyas
Shreyas Iyer carts three momentum shifting sixes off Fabian Allen and Roston Chase.
50 for Kohli
100 for India in the 16th over
2 wickets in 2 balls for WI. First Dhawan gave a charge to Fabian Allen only to give Keemo Paul a catch and in the very next ball Pant went for a horrendous charge and Keemo Paul was back in business.
50 runs between Kohli and Dhawan in 42 balls
50 up for India in the 7th over with a Kohli 4 off Roach,
Rohit looked good at crease but a run out ends his stint
back to back 4s for Dhawan too off Holder
Rohit Sharma starts with a 4 off Roach. All eyes will be on Dhawan too, who has failed to kick on in T20Is and ODIs
India need 255 in 35 overs to win the series as per DLS method
End of WI innings and they made 240/7. Competitive score.
Two more wickets as WI are not getting a defining start
Wishes to you all from MyKhel team too. Happy Independence Day
Independence Day wishes from Indian cricketers who are in faraway West Indies.
#TeamIndia wishes everyone a very Happy Independence Day

Kedar Jadhav saved a surefire four runs with a tremendous dive near widish second slip
Now Jadeja into the act. Brilliant bowling too. After two deliveries that went away he bowled a rather straight one and deceived Hope who played the wrong line
Hetmyer got cleaned up by Mohammed Shami after the game (a correction it is 35-overs-a-side not 32)
Play will resume shortly and it will be 32--over-a-side game
The rain intensifies now
Oh! Its raining again
Fingers crossed
It has stopped raining at the moment. If there is no more rain, we will have a 13:15 PM (local) scheduled start #WIvIND

It has stopped raining. And the groundsmen are removing covers. But we will have to wait a bit longer for resumption.
Sounding not too good.
UPDATE - The rain is steady and this will be a long wait by the looks of it.
