WI 110-3 (28 ovs) vs India | Scorecard


India on the attack as they employ a fielder at short leg for new batsman Mohammed against the spin of Kuldeep.

The spin sends down another tidy over, conceding just a single off the last ball.

Mohammed struggling against the spinners. Jadeja bowls a beauty, a full delivery which turns enough to past the edge as Mohammed is lucky to have not edge it while it also passes close to the off-stump.

Once again a tight over by Jadeja, giving away just two singles as India's spinners continue to build the pressure in the middle overs.

Mohammed has a close call for a run out as he takes a tight second run to Umesh at long-off who does well to stop the boundary with a dive before he sends back a quick throw. Mohammed just about manages to make his crease and survives another close shave, in the 24th over.

Mohammed drives Kuldeep through the off-side for a couple to bring up the 100-run mark for West Indies at the halfway mark.

It has been slow progress for the West Indies with both Mohammed (16) and Shai (33) content to play safe against the two Indian spinners.

The duo have been involved on a slow partnership of 34 runs from 12 overs for the fourth wicket, scoring at below three runs.

West Indies have managed 23 runs from the last eight overs to take the score to 110 for three in 28 overs.
