West Indies vs India Highlights And Cricket Score 1st Match - ODI Commentary

End of Over : 50.0 WI: 322/8

The star of the show and centurion Shimron Hetmyer is caught on the sidelines for an interview. He says that he is feeling good after his ton. Thanks his family and friends for their support. On the conditions, he mentions that it was good as the ball was coming on well. Reckons that he is adjusting to the balance between white and red-ball cricket. Ends by saying he is happy with the total on the board.

India will be disappointed to say the least. Their bowlers leaked plenty of runs and the fielding standards weren't up to the mark either. Barring Chahal, who took 3 wickets and was economical too, rest all went for runs despite their wickets, especially Shami. 323 isn't a target which isn't achievable, but it will really challenge the Indian batting line-up. We surely have a game on our hands here. Join us on the other side of the break for all the action.

Windies have a challenging total on the board and can give the Indians a real run for their money with this. It was largely the Shimron Hetmyer show today. Losing the debutant Hemraj early didn't dent the scoring rate as Kieran Powell and Hope kept it going. Both got dismissed in quick succession after putting on a good stand, but then Hetmyer came in and took the game away as he put up two terrific partnerships with Rovman Powell and Holder and scored a masterful ton. Some late runs added towards the end by Bishoo and Roach, useful ones of course, saw Windies reach 322 and be in a commanding position.

Khaleel Ahmed to Kieran Powell. Is that out? Dhoni and Khaleel look interested, but then opt out of it. Angling back in on middle and leg, keeps going further down and catches Powell on the pads. Loud appeal ensues, but nothing follows. Maybe the Indians realized it was going above the stumps.

The players make their way out for their respective national anthems. We are moments away now...

Jason Holder, the Windies skipper says that he would have batted first. Mentions that they have an opportunity to put runs on the board. Adds saying that they are a young side as few players are missing. On his team, he says that they have handed Oshane Thomas and Chandrapaul Hemraj their debuts.

Virat Kohli, the Indian skipper says that it is a good and hard surface. Reckons that the pitch won't change much so he decides to field first. Mentions that their batting order is pretty much settled now and wants them to make big partnerships. Ends by saying that Rishabh Pant gets his debut and they are playing with 2 spinners and 3 pacers.

TOSS - Virat Kohli wins the coin toss and opts to field.

PITCH REPORT - Ian Bishop doing the pitch report mentions that there is brown grass on the surface with plenty of cracks. Sunil Gavaskar alongside him says that there will be turn for the spinners but the ball will skid as well. Adds that the pitch is hard from underneath and the cracks will open up later. Reckons that it is a bat first pitch. Ends by saying that there won't be any dew later on as the game should end before that.

You'd bank on Windies to do better in white-ball cricket. Though, they have key players missing. In the absence of people like Chris Gayle, Sunil Narine, Andre Russell and Evin Lewis, the task is going to be an uphill one. They do have some positives, however, with Shimron Hetmyer being one of them. They will have to muster all their courage, bind together and perform as a collective. Let's see how it all unfolds. The toss and other updates coming up soon...

Any games in the 50-over format will be important for all the teams now with the upcoming World Cup in 2019. India have a more or less settled batting order, barring that no.4 position, which Ambati Rayudu now seems the front runner for. They have strength in depth and will want to test that too, if they decide to rest some players, that is. They beat the Windies comprehensively in the Test series, and will want to continue further with that. Hello and welcome for what should be a better contest between these two sides.

End of Over : 42.1 IND: 326/2

That is all we have for you today. India take the 1-0 lead in this 5-match ODI series. We now move to Visakhapatnam for the second ODI. That match is on 24th October, Wednesday, which begins on 1330 local (0800 GMT). Join in for that one. Till then, you catch other cricketing action around the globe. Cheers!

Man of the Match and India captain, Virat Kohli, says he feels good as they won quite convincingly. Thinks Windies put a good score on the board but nothing is too difficult when Rohit is batting at the other end. Chuckles and says it rarely happens when Rohit plays second fiddle, but once in a while it happens as he was feeling pretty good tonight. Adds that when he got out, Rohit took over and went on the offensive. Continues saying he only has a few years left in his career, so he wants to give the game his all and do the best he can. On his seamers, reckons that the pitch was a good one to bat on so he doesn't want to be too harsh on the bowlers, though he acknowledges that they should have done better in the death overs.

Windies captain, Jason Holder, says he's really pleased with Shimron's Hetmyer's hundred and also the start Kieran Powell provided. Mentions the ball was skidding on which their spinners couldn't take advantage of. Thinks the total they had was par but Kohli and Rohit took the game away from them, though a wicket or two could have changed the game. Praises Hetmyer once more and applauds the youngster's character. Ends by saying they will look to bounce back in the next game.

Yuzvendra Chahal is caught on the sidelines by Sanjay Manjrekar. The leggie says you have to vary your pace on this ground. Feels the ball was gripping which helped. Reckons the batsmen were only looking for the big hits, so he wasn't bowling full too much. Adds the West Indians are strong guys and if they're hitting, you have to be smart. On playing with Jadeja, he mentions he's played with him in the Asia Cup so he knows him now and both were talking to each other throughout. On Kohli and Rohit's batting, he states the way they bat you don't want to bowl against them and it's a treat to watch them do what they do.

Windies were flavorless in their bowling. Yes, it was a batting track but nobody could get their lines right and they should have done better at least in terms of consistency. The tourists had an early wicket but didn't capitalize on it. All of them went for runs with Thomas and Bishoo picking up a wicket each. Earlier on, India were given a run for their money as Hetmyer (who scored a ton) and co. posted 320-plus on the board. One would have thought it would be a challenging total for the hosts, but that clearly wasn't the case.

India have won this game and have made it look so easy. Effortless. All thanks to Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. They lost Dhawan early but their counter-attacking 246-run stand ensured that they took India within touching distance. Rayudu and Sharma then ensured that there were on further inroads.
