India 160-1 (30 ovs) vs WI | Scorecard
Bishoo gets new batsman Virat Kohli to edge one but it goes past the slip fielder for a couple of runs.
The West Indies bowlers continue to send down loose deliveries. Dhawan takes full toll of a short ball, pulling it over midwicket for a six to get 10 runs off Joseph's eighth over.
In the next over, India collect four runs to go past the 150-mark, in the 28th over.
Dhawan is finding it too easy out in the middle, being gifted a lot of loose balls at regular intervals.
Cummins bowls a short ball which Dhawan clips through square leg for a four to take his score into the 80s.
Cummins though surprises Kohli with a quick short as the India captain takes his eyes off and looks to duck but is struck on the gloves.
Dhawan misses out on a short ball from Bishoo as he fails to get the pull off the middle for just a single to midwicket.
The in-form Dhawan is looking set for another century, as he eases his way to 85 from 87 balls. India are also on course for a huge score as they advance their score to 160 for one in 30 overs.
