Player Of The Match
  • End of Over 20
    Over 20. 9 runs. Bowler: Jasprit Bumrah. Windies: 124/9 (rr 6.20)
  • 19.6

    Carlos Brathwaite to Rohit Sharma. Half volley, outside off stump on the front foot pushing, to long off for 1 run, fielded by Pollard. So Rohit takes India to 195 from their 20 overs. An excellent total considering the size of the boundaries and the fact the ball isn't coming onto the bat that quickly. You would think the Indian bowlers will be backing themselves to defend this but you never know with the West Indies, it only takes one outstanding performance.

Poor cricket, although had he at least hit the stumps Rohit would have been out.

There were a few lusty blows from the West Indians but once again they failed to build any partnerships and they were always behind in this game. So with one game to go India have the series wrapped up. That's all from me tonight, join us next time for the third and final T20 international.
