00:06contest between West Indies and India.

00:09At the top of the order, Chris Cale strode out with his customary swagger, ready to impose

00:15his authority on the Indian attack.

00:18From the very outset, he took the mires of Irfan Bataan, striking him with disdainful

00:23strokes that carried the unmistakable stamp of Caribbean flair.

00:27Chris Cale was in no mood to relent.

00:29He sent Ramesh Power sailing into the stands with a majestic Sikh and greeted Sirisant

00:35with the same forceful dominance.

00:37Each stroke echoed the power and freedom that defined his batting.

00:42Yet his inning was brought to a close when he was caught behind of Ajit Agarkar, departing

00:47after a lively 40 runs flaced with five boundaries and one towering six.

00:52The West Indies are chasing this afternoon.

00:54Oh, lovely stroke, Gale.

02:04Now hesitation, down to the goalie's end.

02:07Not for the first time we see Ramna Rusharwan stretched out on the turf.

02:12Diving for his ground.

02:14So many times we've seen that with Sarwan over his career.

02:19This time luckily for him he can get back and pull.

02:22He's looking where the bull's gone.

02:24Oh and he ducked.

02:26He should have held his ground.

02:27He's wearing a helmet.

02:29He did duck to let that bull go through.

02:36Threaded it through.

02:38Between backward point and cover.

02:40Not much space between them.

02:43Gale manages to get to the boundary with it.

02:49Well that was a full toss.

02:56That doesn't change my opinion.

02:58What he has looking for.

02:5975 for 2.

03:00The end of 17 overs.

03:02That's even bigger.

03:15Full use of defeat.

03:17Hands again and took the faintest of edges.

03:23Doney did the rest.

03:24Comfortable two-handed catch.

03:26The breakthrough that was required.

03:29Couldn't be achieved with the spinners.

03:32Has been by Aghaka.

03:35Gale gone for 40.

03:36What is Ryan Lara?

03:38Although not a massive score.

03:40Chris Gale knock bore significance.

03:42His aggressive beginning gave the West Indies the momentum to comfortably chase India's

03:47245, securing victory by four wickets.

04:13enthralled fans.
