West Indies vs India Highlights And Cricket Score 3rd Match - ODI Commentary

End of Over : 50.0 WI: 283/9

This can be a tricky run chase now. The Indians are still favorites to overhaul the target, especially under lights where the ball is expected to skid onto the bat even more. The Windies bowlers have not had a great time so far but tonight is the day where they need to step up. Will India take an unassailable lead or will the Windies level the series? Join us in a while to find out.

Kuldeep Yadav gives a quick interview to Murali Kartik. He says that the wicket was good but there wasn't much turn like the last game. Adds that he just tried to bowl wicket-to-wicket line. On batsmen not picking him, he replies that he just keeps on mixing his variations. Also states that it's all about deceiving the batsmen in the air. Praises Shai Hope for his batting. Feels that it's difficult to adjust lengths while switching formats and reckons more you play, better you get.

The Indian bowlers were led by Bumrah. He was exceptional throughout as he finished with a 4-fer. Kuldeep too had a good day at the office. Chahal, Khaleel and Kumar though had a day to forget, especially Kumar, who was taken to the cleaners. Had these three bowled well, India would have been chasing something below 250.

Holder then along with Hope added a 76-run stand which steadied the ship. The latter continued but just when it was time for him to accelerate, he was dismissed by a beauty from Bumrah, 5 short of a ton. It would have been back-to-back tons for him. Ashley Nurse though came to the rescue and his cameo has given the Windies a total with which they can at least fight.

28 runs from the last two overs has seen the Windies finish with a competitive total on the board. Who would have thought they would cross the 280-run mark when they were reeling at 121-5. Their top order once again failed to make an impact. Hetmyer and Hope stitched another handy stand. The former was really hitting the ball well but lost his wicket at the wrong time.

Jasprit Bumrah to Obed McCoy. A dot! No fifer for Bumrah. A yorker outside off, McCoy swings but misses. 7 from the last over AND WINDIES FINISH ON 283/9!

Windies lose their review on the penultimate ball of the innings and Nurse walks back after playing a very good cameo. Bumrah now has one ball to get a fifer. Can he do so?

Howzzat? The umpire raises his finger. Nurse though reviews. Looks out to the naked eye.

Jasprit Bumrah to Shai Hope. OUT! BOWLED 'EM! A corker of a yorker from Bumrah. If there is one ball you do not want to be facing in your 90s, it is that one. It just does not get better than this. A toe-crusher on leg stump, Hope manages to get his boot out of the way but does not get his bat down in time. It sneaks through and hits the leg pole.

First wicket for Chahal.

36.3 0

Khaleel Ahmed to Shai Hope. Shortish and angling in around off, Hope turns it in front of square leg for nothing.

Half the side back in the hut for the Windies. Another googly on middle, Powell does not pick it and goes for the heave. The ball turns away and that is what does him in.

Kuldeep Yadav to Shimron Hetmyer. OUT! Hetmyer's foot is on the line! Nelson strikes! Body blow to the Windies. Just as the partnership started to flourish, India have broken through. The crowd here erupts as they know how big this scalp is. India will be relieved to see the back of Shimron. A leg spinner from Kuldeep on off, this is slightly behind the length he has been bowling until now, so the ball gets enough time to turn. Hetmyer goes for the slog sweep after coming down the track a bit but is beaten by the away spin. Dhoni quickly whips the bails off and appeals. The umpire takes it upstairs. Time for the replays and they show that Hetmyer has nothing behind the line. The youngster does not convert his start this time. India will now look to bring things under control once again.

Big moment in the game! An appeal for a stumping against Hetmyer has been taken upstairs.

Drinks! So India on top at the moment. They have dismissed the top order of the Windies. The visitors though now have their two best batsmen of the series out there.

Shimron Hetmyer strides out to the middle. He has been in brilliant form and Windies would like another good innings from him.

13.1 W

Khaleel Ahmed to Marlon Samuels. OUT! Khaleel is all pumped up as he straightaway runs in joy. Big blow to Windies and the sorry form of Marlon Samuels continues. From 'round the wicket, Ahmed angles in a back of a length delivery around off. He gets it to straighten from there and Samuels is caught by surprise.

9.2 2

Khaleel Ahmed to Shai Hope. Strays on the pads, Hope flicks it through square leg for a brace.

Jasprit Bumrah to Marlon Samuels. NOT OUT! It is missing the stumps! Excellent use of the review there by Samuels and the on-field call has to be overturned. Bumrah lands it on a length around middle, Samuels is on his toes as he tries to flick. Misses to get hit high on the pads. The players appeal and the umpire agrees. Samuels walks to his partner and then signals the 'T'. Replays show that the ball is going over the stumps. Marlon survives to fight another day.

Have India got another? Samuels has been given LBW but he has taken the review. It might just clip the stumps. The on-field call might just play a role here.

8.5 1

Jasprit Bumrah to Shai Hope. The batsman opens the face of the bat and helps it to third man. They have run through for a single.

8.4 0

Jasprit Bumrah to Shai Hope. Another outside edge but this one is short! Around off and on a length. Hope tries to defend but gets an outside edge which falls just short of second slip. Hope played that with soft hands and hence the ball did not carry.

8.1 W

Jasprit Bumrah to Kieran Powell. OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! What a masterstroke by the Indian skipper there. He changed ends for Bumrah and it has worked wonders. Once again it is a delivery which is slightly short. He hit the deck hard on that one and gets extra bounce. It angles away too to open the batsman in his stance. Powell tries to defend it off the back foot but the ball takes the outside edge and flies towards Rohit Sharma at widish first slip. He takes a sharp catch stretching towards his right. Both the openers back in the hut without making an impact again. Second wicket for Bumrah.

Change of ends for Jasprit Bumrah.

End of Over : 8 11 Runs WI: 38/1

Shai Hope is the new batsman.

5.5 W

Jasprit Bumrah to Chandrapaul Hemraj. OUT! In the air... and what a catch by Dhoni. WOW! Bumrah has the last laugh but a lot of credit has to be given to MS for this wicket. Bumrah bangs this one short. He bends his back on this one as it skids through and also gets big on the batsman. Hemraj goes for the pull but is late on the shot. The ball takes the top edge and lobs towards short fine leg. For a moment, Hemraj must have felt he would get away with this but NO. Dhoni makes good ground to his right, then dives full stretch and takes it in front of the fine leg fielder who has also come in. Hemraj stands there in disbelief and then starts walking back. However, the umpires ask him to wait as they want to check if the catch is clean and the replays show, it is as clean as a whistle. CH has to continue walking and India get an early breakthrough.

5.4 6

Jasprit Bumrah to Chandrapaul Hemraj. SIX! Stand and deliver! What a shot that! Nothing wrong with the delivery. Slightly shorter in length around off, Hemraj picks the length early and then pulls it over the long on fence for a biggie. 10 from 2 balls. That boundary probably must have broken the shackles.

5.3 4

Jasprit Bumrah to Chandrapaul Hemraj. FOUR! Up and over! A much-needed boundary! Full and outside off, Hemraj tries to go over covers but he ends up slicing it over cover-point and the ball trickles into the fence.

Jasprit Bumrah to Chandrapaul Hemraj. NOT OUT! And it has pitched way outside leg. A poor review by India. Bumrah bowls it on a length around leg, Hemraj goes for the flick but misses to get hit on the pads. The players appeal but the umpire shakes his head. Virat Kohli after a chat with Dhoni and Bumrah goes for the review. Replays roll in and they show that the ball has pitched outside leg. That is that then. India lose their sole review and very early into the game. After watching the replays on the giant screen, even Kohli fails to hide his smile.

Review time! An appeal for an LBW has been turned down. Hemraj is the man in question. Pitching seems to be an issue.

A victory for India in the first ODI, a tie in the second. What do we have in store for his in the third? Can the Windies level the series with a win here today? One can surely not rule them out after their performance in the last game. The hosts on the other side, have strengthened their squad by getting in their first-choice bowlers. They are once again heavy favorites heading into the game. Virat Kohli will hope to take an unassailable lead here today. welcome to the coverage.

End of Over : 47.4 IND: 240/10

That's all from this exciting game. With the series locked 1-1, the remaining matches promise to be even more exciting. The 4th ODI is on 29th October at the Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai. Do join us at 1330 local (0800 GMT) for all the action. Cheers!

Victorious Windies captain, Jason Holder credits his boys for playing an outstanding game of cricket and is really please that they hung in there nicely. Reckons his partnership with Shai was important and admits that he should have stayed there longer. Adds that they knew India were a batter short and if they remove Dhoni early, they will get into the lower order. On his spinners, Holder says that Nurse was outstanding and it's good to see him taking crucial wickets and also adding vital runs. Feels that not much has changed and the guys are just learning and thriving to become consistent. Mentions that being consistent is the key to winning matches.

Man of the Match, Ashley Nurse says that it turned out to be his day and he played with a lot of free spirit. Adds that when Shai Hope got out, he decided to take on the bowlers as the score wasn't too big then. Also mentions that he backs his strengths. Signs off by dedicating his wickets to his friend, Sunny Sohail whom he met in the CPL.

India's skipper, Virat Kohli says that they bowled pretty well as the wicket wasn't offering much in the first 35 overs. Terms the bowling performance as very professional and admits that they should have closed it well in the last 10 overs. Feels they should have been chasing 250-260. States that the target was pretty much gettable but they didn't get the partnerships going. Credits Windies for playing better cricket and believes they deserved to win. On team combinations, Kohli replies when both Kedar and Pandya are playing they get an extra batsman/bowler option which gives them the depth. Mentions it's difficult to get the balance right without them. On his batting, Kohli states that he doesn't want to talk about it much and it's a bit embarrassing when people ask him the same thing again and again. On his dismissal, the Indian skipper tells that he wanted to go after Samuels but failed to execute the shot well. Adds that they need to take wins and losses in their stride and they are looking forward to the challenge in Mumbai.

Marlon Samuels smiles and says that he has been bowling in the nets and they have been training as a unit, getting stronger and stronger. Praises Shai Hope and counts him one for the future. Adds that Hetmyer has a fearless approach and is pleased with the way he has progressed. Considers it as a very important victory and says that going into the next game 1-1 is better than 2-0. Further says that they will take the next match even more seriously and will look to improve in all departments. States that they are looking to win and not only compete.

Shai Hope and Marlon Samuels are giving a quick interview to Sanjay Manjrekar. The former says that he is pleased with his consistency with the bat and credits the team for this win. Mentions that they lost a few quick wickets and had to bat through the innings. Adds that he has not changed much in his game and his preparation is still the same.

Windies were excellent with their intensity in the field. They felt the pressure initially when Kohli and Dhawan were going strong. But the tourists never lost hope. They managed to pick wickets at regular intervals which kept them very much in the game. It can be considered as a masterstroke by Jason Holder to give the ball to Marlon Samuels who earned them the wicket of the danger man, Virat Kohli. He finished with three wickets while Ashley Nurse, Obed McCoy and Holder bagged two wickets apiece.

India's vulnerable point (middle order) was touched and exposed today. Chasing a stiff target, they lost Rohit Sharma early. Then, Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan put together a 79-run stand which was followed by a few more partnerships involving the Indian skipper. Kohli held one end tightly and went on to notch up yet another century. However, the rest of the batting unit failed to give him enough support. Eventually, Marlon Samuels managed to pick the prized scalp of Kohli and the writing was on the wall. Still, they managed to drag it for a few overs, although the result was pretty much inevitable.

A magnificent victory for Windies! They were competitive in the first ODI, came close in the second and now have finally crossed the hurdle in the third attempt. Mind you, they have beaten India in spite of the home team having their first-choice bowling attack and more importantly, Virat Kohli scoring a century. Credit should be given to them. They deserve to be on level terms.

Ashley Nurse to Rishabh Pant. OUT! GONE! There is a slight deflection. Pant has to go. A delivery sliding down the leg side, it's full in length and Pant shapes up for the paddle sweep.

The replays roll in and Ultra Edge finds a slight spike when the ball goes past Pant's gloves. Rishabh is given the walking order. India have lost their fourth wicket now. 112 needed off 113 balls.

Rishabh Pant arrives at number 5. Promotion for him? A wide first slip in place.
