- India 86-1 (10 ovs) vs WI | SCORECARD


Dwayne Bravo comes into the attack to bowl the ninth over. He bowls a quick short ball to Kohli, who offers no shot. Bravo attempts another shot ball and this time it is called a no-ball for the second bouncer of the over resulting in a free-hit which Kohli can't make most of as Bravo beats him with a well executed slower ball.

Kohli (1) gets a lifeline off the third ball of the eighth over as Bravo fails to hit the stumps from close range on his follow through with the Indian right-hander way out of his crease. That could prove to be very costly for the West Indians. He gets another reprieve off the next delivery as wicketkeeper Dinesh Ramdin fails to collect the ball and break the stumps with Kohli again struggling to make his crease as he came back for a risky second run.

Kohli comes down the track and tries to blast Bravo through the off-side but gets a thick outside edge which goes for a four followed by two runs to midwicket with Bravo going for 10 in his first over.

Badree will bowl out quite early, at the halfway stage for West Indies. He starts with a leg side wide before Rahane slaps it through the covers for two runs followed by one to midwicket. Badree has bowled quite a lot of short balls and this time the in-form Kohli pulls it through midwicket for a four.

At the halfway stage, India looking on course for a healthy total as they reach 86 for one in 10 overs, with Rahane on 29 from 23 balls and Kohli on 10 from eight balls.
