Careful and steady start from Windies's openers. they are standing strong at 45 runs, Lewis looking very good so far.

Edit

Gayle gone now, final ODI appearance for Gayle i suppose if he gets retire on his 300th ODI match today. He failed to score big run today but he's now Most run (10349) scorer for Windies

^Congo. You also had predicted England winning the WC. Did you place any bet that time?

280 is a good target if they finish the match. Rain shouldn't spoil it now.

And who knows India might still end up with 275+

As i predicted correctly, India end up with 275+ and my next prediction is that India will win this match easily Smiley
If anyone is looking for a WI win here, he is asking too much from them which is not possible.

No, it was sunny but I know why Kohli chose to bat first as it was a decision made looking at the previous match. Still they managed to continue the play. Sad for Iyer as he was playing well.

Looking forward to JJ's partnership. Jadeja please hit few sixes now.

It stopped raining now and glad they did not lose any overs. Iyer on 63 now and 6 more overs left. Would he too manage 100 runs? It would be a great chance to get 100 now. Now a 280+ target is looking good and WI will be struggling due to the weather. Kohli did right by choosing to bat first.

Was there was a forecast of rain before the start of the match ? If so, this is one of the best decision of kohli of choosing to bat first.
The outfield is also wet now and it may slow the outfield.

Edit: SS Iyer out on 71.

Kohli century and iyer 71 runs helped India to score past 250 runs in 46 overs with 5 wickets remanining. Jadeja and Jadhav are batiting and if they can stay till last bal INdia can easily make 285+ run on the board and it would be interesting to watch how and what straetgy WI adopt to chase this score .

300 is not possible and anything above 250 would be a bonus. Till now the partnership is going well 89 runs till now. Hope this also reaches 100+.
300 is totally possible thanks to the awesome partnership between Shreyas and Kohli. I always knew that Shreyas was a great ODI batsman and he proved it today by giving support to Kohli right when he needed it.

Pant disappointed me once again and I think that he might get replaced soon if he continues playing like this. 280-300 seems like the likely target for West Indies at this point.

300 not possible now because it's started raining.
Is rain coming for the reuse of West Indies again ? WI needs a wash out match because if the match resumes after sometime , West Indies will get a much stiffer target.
Still WI will be having hard time if the game resumes because normally after the rai ball will hold before coming into bat so if there is remaining play India has the better chance as well.

^Kohli is gone. Shreyas surprised me and already managed half century.

275 looks more probable but now it started drizzling which means game is ruined. I hope they still manage to put more runs on board else this second ODI also is washed away. Don't know what will happen during the test matches.

Will it be another century for Virat Kohli?
176/3 after 34.4 overs. Nice batting from the middle order after a long time. I think India will have a good score tonight, more than 300. Possible?

2 more runs to 100... Cheesy

Really, you think that Indian bowlers should defend 160 runs in the ODI  Smiley You should rethink the target score else India will lose the match. Grin

The ways things are moving, India will score above 250 and will easily win this match .

My bad. I meant 260 but now it looks tough as Rohit went for just 18 and they lost Pant too. They need to again rethink about the 4th position.  Roll Eyes

Now all depends on Virat else again they will end up at 200 or max 220. They should have crossed 150 long back.

India is still going pretty good and you should know that everyday is not a 300+ plus day. India bowling line up is strong enough to protect 250. And who knows India might still end up with 275+ even the lower order batsmen play aggressively. Not to mention kholi will go devastating after completing his century.

India is winning all the tosses and Kohli is always gambling with his choices.
There was time when Kohli was having no luck when it comes to the toss not too long ago especially during IPL and now he is winning them consecutively which is weird Grin.

This means we can bet on India winning the toss in the next matches  Smiley
Kohli is not only winning the toss but also winning the matches.

Dhawan is really playing badly after his injury. He must have not practiced since then. :-(
I blame Dhawan here as his form is anyways bad.
He performed well in the world cup until his injury and now he is coming after an injury, give him some time to regain his confidence  Wink. India does not have other openers to consider.

I feel 150-160 is a good score against WI today.
Hopefully you are aware that this is not T20 for India to defend a score like 160  Tongue.

Kohli is eyeing for another century by the way he is playing and Iyer could give him good support at the other end.

Dhawan gone! They had to review it and it reminds me of the umpires of Eng Vs Aus now. Dhawan is really playing badly after his injury. He must have not practiced since then. :-(

I am happy for him as now he is in politics because we need peoples like him very clean and good person hopefully he will be remembered as good in his new department even I hate this I have never good experience in this dirty politics but we still can hope peoples like him can give new directions.

True, but its hard to find honest person in recent times.

Bro its not T-20 match Tongue but ODI. 150 runs are easy peasy, unless we witness major collapse and India lose 7 wickets with in 49 runs.

Pant was looking okay but he went for bad shot selection once again. Poor guy

I'm for India so I wish WI don't take more wickets Cheesy

I blame Dhawan here as his form is anyways bad. Hope Rohit doesn't disappoint me today.

I am neutral and it does not matter much if India wins or WI but in such matches, i prefer to support the weaker team as if the weaker team wins or become close to win, the match turns out to be an interested one. If the stronger team wins (India in this case), then mostly its a one sided match.
