Preview
India will square off against the West Indies in the second T20I of the West Indies tour of India on October 9 at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi.
After winning the ODI series 2-1, India have started the T20I leg on a strong note. In the first T20I, the Men in Blue showcased why they are the back-to-back T20 World Cup champions. Despite playing on a flat track, the Indian bowlers restricted the visitors to 171 in 19.1 overs. Naman Dhir starred with the ball, claiming a three-wicket haul, while Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav picked up two wickets each.
In reply, India made light work of the 172-run target. Sanju Samson was dismissed cheaply, but Abhishek Sharma provided a quickfire cameo. Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan then joined forces in the fourth over and stitched together an unbeaten 137-run partnership off just 67 deliveries. India chased down the target in only 14.4 overs, with Shreyas smashing an unbeaten 102 off 43 balls, including 10 fours and six sixes.
