WI vs IND, 4th T20I 2022 Live: Watch - Suryakumar Yadav pulls off a spectacular helicopter shot off Obed McCoy
Rohit Sharma-led Indian team is currently engaged with West Indies in the 4th T20I match in Florida. Talking about the ongoing game, West Indies skipper, Nicholas Pooran won the toss and opted to take the field.
As usual, Rohit Sharma opened the innings with Suryakumar Yadav as both the batters provided a fiery start that their side expected from them. Both the batters added 53 runs for the first wicket before the Indian skipper was cleaned up by Akeal Hossain for 33 runs.
Following his dismissal, Suryakumar Yadav also returned to the dressing room after scoring 24 runs. Deepak Hooda who comes in at no.3 was decent with the bat and scored only 21 runs and was dismissed by Alzarri Joseph.
Then Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson stood strong in the middle and build up a crucial partnership for the 4th wicket. However, Obed McCoy provided a much-needed breakthrough for his side by sending back the well-settled Rishabh Pant for 44 runs.
We need to make them feel confident: Rohit Sharma

Besides, after losing the toss, Rohit Sharma shared a few words, saying, "We were also looking to bowl, not sure how the pitch will play, we will now have to get the runs on the board.
It's important from the team's perspective to find answers, we'll try and put our best foot forward. I understand where we stand as a team and will be looking to give chances to some of the other guys," was quoted as saying by Cricbuzz.
"We need to make them feel confident, that means we'll have to give them plenty of games. We are building towards the WC, the guys need to be tested in certain aspects of the game.
