Hardik strikes, Lewis out for 9

WI 40-1 (9 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Both West Indies openers looking to be positive as they keep the scoreboard moving with regular singles. Three singles from the first three balls off Shami before the pacer bowls a quick yorker as Kyle adjusts well to flick it past square leg for a four and then keeps strike with a single from the last ball.

India's pacers have been quite poor with their line and length. Another ball on the pads to Kyle by the struggling Umesh as the right-hander flicks it through the leg side for his fifth four to take his score to 28.

Umesh is taken off after a poor spell of 22 runs from three overs as Hardik comes back.

He makes the first breakthrough with the wicket of Lewis, who is caught at mid-off for nine as he looks for big hit down the ground.

A slight hesitation between the two brothers, new batsman Shai Hope and his brother Kyle before the latter survives a close run out chance as the fielder at midwicket gets a direct hit but the bat was down just in time.

A good over from Pandya, conceding just a single while making the opening breakthrough for India.
