00:00India took first strike against the West Indies. They've already won the series. However,
00:04the Indies would not leave empty-handed. Shibman Gill gone for one. And Jaden Seals took out
00:11the stumps of Virat Kohli.
00:12Stump out of the ground! Jaden Seals!
00:15Rohit Sharma and Ruteraj Gaikwad began repairing the innings. Their approach looked different
00:21in this contest, setting the pace as opposed to chasing a mammoth total. Azari Joseph nearly
00:27got the breakthrough but this chance was dropped. Rohit's story eventually ended with
00:34the score on 141. No century this time. He goes for 92.
00:40Even after Gaikwad went for 57, Naman Durr and Rahul assaulted the Windies bowlers.
00:51The runs flowed off their bats to the delight of their fans.
00:55As good as anything that we've seen today.
00:57When Deer fell, Rahul carried on after getting to a century.
01:05And now he's completely unleashed.
01:08India eventually getting to 351 for seven.
01:12John Campbell and Shea Hope opened the innings after Jewel Andrew reported injured.
01:17Campbell was removed for 10 with 41 runs on the board.
01:22Hope and Amir Janggu joined the forces and they were a match made in Newt Chandigarh.
01:30Goes over the infield, this time through the offside. A slower one, picked nicely.
01:35India's bowlers were patiently awaiting a mistake from their bats. But there would be no false
01:40strokes to celebrate. Instead they jumped on a run out to break the partnership.
01:45Janggu goes for a well played 67. It was surprising to see Shafin Rutherford depart for less than a
01:52runner ball for his 24.
01:55Kimo Paul stuck by Hope.
01:58He is a marvelous and magnificent batsman who owns this format of the game.
02:03He played well for his 44 to 71 for four. This match was far from over. Ford made seven.
02:10But Gudakesh Moti and Hope took the windys home. A few lusty blows by both batsmen made the Indian
02:17bowlers look tame as the runs required dipped below the ball's remaining.
02:22And goes offside this time. Chase for the man in the deep. Beats him.
02:26Victory was certain. A memorable knock for Hope. One of his best ever. 162 not out of 143 balls.
02:35West Indies, 3.52 for five from 48.2 overs. They win the match by five wickets as India wins
02:42the ODI series 2-1.
