The third T20I between West Indies and India will take place at the Providence Stadium in Guyana on Tuesday (August 8). The Men in Maroon emerged victorious in the first two games of the five-match series and now need just one win to seal the series.
In the second T20I held at the same venue, India posted a challenging total of 152-7 in their stipulated overs. Tilak Varma, 20, once again showcased his talent, registering his maiden half-century with a score of 51 in just 41 balls. But, the other Indian batters failed to impress on the tricky batting surface.
In reply, West Indies had a disastrous start as they lost two wickets for just two runs in the very first over, with captain Hardik Pandya dismissing Brandon King and Johnson Charles. Despite the early setback, inform batter Nicholas Pooran played a remarkable knock of 67 in just 40 balls. However, after his dismissal, the hosts faced a mini-collapse, losing three wickets for only two runs in 12 balls, allowing India to make a comeback into the game. Nonetheless, Akeal Hosein and Alzarri Joseph remained composed and completed the chase with seven balls and two wickets to spare.
