India vs West Indies, highlights, 2nd T20I: Match called off due to rain, West Indies win series

The US tour ends on a sad note for Indian cricket team. That will be it for India’s limited overs side for quite some time. A long home season awaits Virat Kohli and co now. That’s it from us here. Do join us for India’s home season. Until then, good bye and take care.

MS Dhoni on playing in the US: This is one place where we can come back and play cricket. A triangular or four-nation series. A tournament like that can give us more time to spend in the US. Yes, it will be a cramped schedule, but modern-day cricketers won’t mind it

MS Dhoni in the presentation ceremony: If you compare the two games, you would wonder if we were playing on the same wicket. I am not saying we would have definitely won, but a good batting effort would have seen us through after 140 odd.

West Indies have won the series 1-0. Rain denied India a chance to level the series. But what a good series this has been, really? Yesterday we witnessed a run-fest and an outstanding over by Dwayne Bravo to seal the match for West Indies. But today, MS Dhoni and co came back stronger and bowled out the Calypso boys for only 143. Lots of positives for both teams, Evin Lewis turned out be excellent for the Caribbean side and for India the bowling performance today and the effort to restrict Carlos Brathwaite and co under 250 in the first match would be something they would look to continue further on. However, the fans in USA would be disappointed to wake up early on a Sunday morning and not get a full match in return.

India has done brilliantly well to come back in the second game. They have given 102 less runs than what they did in the last match. The extra bowler plan worked for MS Dhoni and co as Mishra bowled exceedingly well. With a target of just 144. Indian team should fancy to get there easily. West Indies will have to get early wickets with the new ball to get back into this game. Can they do it?

Stumble, tumble, crumble seems to be the pattern of the West Indies innings today. Fine bowling by India, particularly @ashwinravi99

After 14 overs,West Indies 102/6 ( Andre Russell 3 , Dwayne Bravo 2)

DJ Bravo has walked in. Can he get West Indies to a good total here. Russell sweeps and calls for a second, Bravo refuses it. Slight misfield by Bhuvi, but no run came off it. Bravo takes a single of the last to retain strike. Ashwin gave just 4 in his 3rd over.

OUT!! Pollard caught on the back foot and out says the umpire. The West Indian doesn’t look happy, was a bit unlucky there. The Calypso Boys have lost half their side for 92.

After 11 overs,West Indies 89/4 ( Andre Fletcher (W) 0 , Kieron Pollard 12)

After Marlon’s wicket, Pollard has walked in as the No 6 for West Indies. No ball on the fourth ball and a Big one! Bumrah’s been bowling them since yesterday. West Indies get a free hit and Pollards slaps it straight for a four. A huge shout for LBW on the fifth ball. Umpries says not out boys. Lets get back to the game. Height was the issue there. POLLARD!! A maximum towards mid-wicket. Runs are flowing for the Caribbean side despite the wickets.

About 200 empty seats in West stands, double that in East side. Loads more empty pockets in the bleachers. My crowd guess is 12,000 today.
