IND vs WI: Watch - Yuzvendra Chahal smashes a beautiful straight drive off Alzarri Joseph
After defeating the visiting side West Indies in the first ODI, India is up against the same opposition for the second battle at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Talking about the ongoing game, West Indies skipper Nicholas Pooran won the toss and opted to take the field.
Surprisingly, Rohit Sharma opened the innings with the wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant as the fans expected KL Rahul to open the inning with him. His plans didn't go well as Rohit Sharma went back to the dressing after being dismissed by Kemar Roach for 5 runs.
Virat Kohli came in at number three and played some good shots along with the left-hander. However, Odean Smith provided the second breakthrough after the powerplay overs and sent back Rishabh Pant who was batting on 18 runs.
Prasidh Krishan shines with the ball:
After the dismissal of Rishabh Pant, Virat Kohli too left the battle in the same over bowled by Odean Smith as he scored 18 runs on the board. Then, KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav played well in the middle overs and once again made India bounce back in this match.
Both the batters dominated the opposition and gathered runs with a plethora of extraordinary shots they played. Both KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav added 91 runs for the fourth wicket partnership before the Karanataka batsman engaged in a miss communication with his partner and was run out by Akeal Hossain and Shai Hope.
He missed his well deserved fifty by just one run. Then Washington Sundar and Suryakumar Yadav aggregated some runs before both the batters walked back to the pavilion with the numbers 64 and 24.
In the end, India posted a decent total of 239 runs with the help of Deepak Hooda's 29 runs by coming down the order. Chasing the target posted by the hosts, West Indies were currently struggling on 122 runs after losing six wickets.
