Yeah, they did. 46-47 over were pure gold for spectators and nightmare for Bowlers and their captain. Something tells me that game is not finished yet. i want good chase and then close win by India (biased) lol Grin

India is dropping catches too, KL Rahul dropped the catch of Hope but they took the wicket of in form Hetmyer by a brilliant fielding by Iyer in the boundary and he was short of the crease and i too wanted to see close match but the target is too high to chase and Hope is playing at a good strike rate in this innings which is far better than his career average and if he is able to continue his form and score a century then we might have a chase in hands with Pollard coming in and smacking the bowlers like the did in the past then we might see a close chase Wink

388 to win has already give a psychological advantage to team India

True but Windies will fight back.

As of now everything going in favor of Windies, early catch drop by Rahul and If by any chance Windies reach 250-280 runs at the end of 40 overs then i just want to see Kohli's reactions. Grin

Oh boy!! final score of India 387/5

Windies must be kicking themselves now, no matter if its batting, flat track or not, even with the dew effect ..... its still very big target to chase, for successful chase everything needs to go in their way from now on and need 2 miracle innings. otherwise they already lost the game.

The West Indies miscalculated big time as they were not able to restrict the free flowing Rohit and Rahul and then Iyer and Pant played some huge shots and at one point they both scored 50 plus runs in two overs, 24 runs in the 46th over by Pant bowled by Cottrell and then Iyer improved that to 31 runs in the 47th over which is bowled by Chase. It is an impossible task for West Indies and with this win the series is leveled.

I am also wishing the same. A close match but whenever I wish something the exact opposite happens 😜

~snip
You are underestimating a team like India way too much here. Anything above 300 is a great score for India and they are pretty much set to touch 350 thanks to Rohit going berserk at the moment with Shreyas providing good support.

Don't dismiss their bowling unit just because they performed badly in a single match. Look at their past accomplishments. West Indies will need a miracle if they want to seal this one and I highly doubt anything like that will happen here.

I am not under estimating their bowlers, what i was saying is that their best bowlers Jasprit Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar Kumar are not playing and the way in which West Indies chased their total in the T20 and the first ODI does not resemble the bowling unit and power they had when Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar Kumar was in the team as they were strike bowlers who were capable of picking the wickets and Shami was not able to pick the wickets either without a good support from the other end.
In this match too West Indies had a good start and the Indian bowlers were not able to pick up a wicket yet and i was talking about this situation.

I do not think it is possible for west Indies to beat that target. It is a very big score! Form here onwards Indian bowlers need to only constraint them from scoring big runs, any lose over will cause the west indies to strike back. 388 to win has already give a psychological advantage to team India

Looks like it will be a 350-380 score today and hope to see Rohit hit his double century in this match without losing the wicket else they may end up with a lesser target.

By the way when Rohit Sharma was batting i thought he will be looking for another double century as he always scores big centuries and now i am surprised to see Rishabh Pant finally smoking the bowlers around the ground and Shreyas Iyer and Pant are scoring boundaries with ease and the partnership reached 55 runs in 19 balls and they crossed 351 runs and now i am confident that India will win the match.

360 plus is already a very competitive score. It will now be the turn of Indian bowler to bowl well, which I doubt!

Batsmen did their job, especially Rohit and Rahul brilliant batting by both the opener.

Virat's wicket for a duck was sad as he alone could get the remaining 50-70 runs needed but still they look good enough to win this match picking early wickets.

West Indies now have the opportunity to pull back things and can put pressure on the Indian batsman, Virat Kohli got out for a golden duck and if West Indies are able to bowl a couple of tight overs then the pressure will start building for the batsman and they will look to score boundaries and start loosing wickets and the only positive for India is that Rohit is still in the crease, anything below 340 by India will be chased by West Indies as they have the players and India is not having a potent bowling unit in this series.

First Rahul and back to back Kohli, what the hell you are doing guys. West indies is a team which cannot be taken light they only deal in 6s. But still RoHIT sharma is still on the ground with score of 140 so please RoHIT one more double century, your nation needs from you.

Ah well, India lost the toss and Batting first Shocked

. so far very slow start from Indian openers, Both Rohit and Rahul going with old tested technique of India "Keep your head down at start" no need to say both are eyeing on big inning because historically its batting paradise and India need at least 320 score if they want to win the game(Plus 10+15 runs for buffer) otherwise game looks tough for them.

A brilliant knock by both the opener. You were absolutely correct about their strategy. They way team India is playing I am sure they will cross 320 score. They should reach 350 plus easily.

India had a flying start and both the openers scored centuries and now they will look to increase the run rate to score above 350 runs as they are scoring at run a ball and Rohit started to score the boundaries after crossing his century.
Rahul got out looking for the big shot and i hope they will carry the same momentum without loosing much wickets.

India lost the toss once again but they are composed to score a big total to win the match and both the openers are batting in their 90s and it looks like they are looking for over a 200 run partnership and possibly score over 350 runs and then the Indian bowlers will possibly choke the West Indies batsman by putting pressure on them, if not they will easily chase the score with ease like they did in the first ODI.

Passed 200 run partnership and KL Rahul got his century now its Rohit's time, we all know how the hitman can change once he passed 100 mark runs.Remaining innings will be like T20 so 350+ completely possible.

Indian Bowling looks tricky to me in absence of bumrah-chahal.

BUmrah's absence is really great blow for India but don't rely on a single bowler too much we need others to show skills and support.I hope shami can do the near damage of Bumrah if he got support from another end.Chahar need to step up with new ball to keep this series alive.

As far now India is going good 95 for no loss and at a good rate of 5 runs per over.

Seems Captain dropped an all rounder and replaced with a full time bowler now team look complete.

350 for India,guaranteed. Wink

It's really irritating that India is loosing toss in last 2 or 3 matches but just like 3rd T-20 match India is really rocking in this match. Current score is 126 with no loss in 22 over. Go RoHIT and Rahul.

This time India started well after losing the toss and Rahul has made half century and Rohit Sharma is batting at 46. India were 110 in 21 overs without a wicket. They will have to make 325+ in order to make this match interesting and win this one .

Yeah, so far so good. Rohit is very careful today or should i say slow? but i don't mind if he's playing slow because Rahul doing his job perfectly on another end and Rohit can easily keep up with his strike rate as game proceeds, it would be shame if he gets out though.
