West Indies off to a quick start

October 12, 2018 09:52

WI 24-0 (4 ovs) vs India | Scorecard

Powell punches a half-volley from Umesh past mid-off for a couple and then takes one two balls later.

Umesh settles into a good rhythm in his second over, keeping it on a good channel as Brathwaite can only defend the last three balls.

Powell steers the outswinger from Thakur past the gully fielder for a four. Two balls later, the left-hander throws his bat at a wide full delivery, smashing it through the covers for another boundary.

Thakur seems to have injured his leg and looks in some discomfort as the physio Patrick Farhat comes out to attend. The bowler has a chat with his captain and the physio before he walks off the field with injury in just his second over on his debut.

An early introduction for off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin. He starts from round the wicket as Powell defends the first ball before he chips down and smashes the last ball over the bowler's head for another boundary.
