WI vs IND 3rd T20I Preview

With three games left, the score is 2-0 with Windies taking the lead. The home fans celebrated their success. Although they let things slide towards the end and ultimately clung on to cross the finish line, West Indies was undoubtedly the superior team. It took a lot of work from Tilak, a useful contribution from Hardik, and a crucial hit from Bishnoi at the end for India to reach the difficult total of 152.

India was in the lead as Hardik scalped two wickets in his opening over. Mayers soon fell, but Pooran skilfully counterattacked. With his hits to the fence, Pooran made sure his team was constantly ahead as 18 came off the last powerplay over.

West Indies were in command when Pooran was dismissed, but this led to a stunning collapse in which they lost 4 wickets for 3 runs in 13 balls. To prevent India from tying the series, Akeal and Alzarri soaked in the pressure and put up an unbroken 26-run partnership for the ninth wicket. India should have scored at least 10 runs more, to be in the game. They enjoyed themselves with the ball, but they were powerless to halt Pooran’s carnage that helped WI win WI vs IND 2nd T20I.
