Commentary
B0$ The inevitable has happened. The players are shaking hands. B1$
Take a look at India's brief innings, though. Ishan Kishan set the powerplay ablaze with a blistering 30 off just 10 balls. Following his departure, the middle order struggled to find rhythm, but Naman Dhir turned the tide with a few mighty blows in his brief stay at the crease before rain brought the action to a halt.
B0$ The drizzle has gotten heavier and the umpires have called on for the covers. With every passing moment, the intensity of rain is increasing. That might be all about India's innings I reckon.
7.4
OUT! Shamar Springer to Tilak Varma, B0$ Bowled!! B1$
Shamar Springer to Tilak Varma, B0$ Bowled!!
7.3
Shamar Springer to Tilak Varma, 2 runs, that's a fine stop by Keemo Paul at deep mid-wicket. Sprints across to his right and puts in a dive to flick the ball away. It was a low full toss that was flicked away by Tilak Varma
B0$ Naman Dhir's 16 is the joint-most scored by an India batter off the first three balls of his innings. Dinesh Karthik too, had gone 6, 4, 6 off Rubel Hossain in the Nidahas Trophy 2018 final at RPS Colombo
7.3
Shamar Springer to Tilak Varma, B0$, attempted slower delivery outside off, but it's a wide ball
7.2
Shamar Springer to Naman Dhir, 1 run, full and quick on off, Naman Dhir chips it towards mid-off on the bounce
7.1
SIX! Shamar Springer to Naman Dhir, B0$, Naman Dhir is batting like a dream at the moment. Has to be one of his finest knock in international cricket so far. This was pitched up by the bowler around off and Naman Dhir thumped it over long-off for another sublimely timed maximum
B0$
6.6
Keemo Paul to Tilak Varma, 2 runs, back of a length delivery around middle and leg, Tilak Varma loses his shape while going for a pull, miscues it towards mid-wicket as the fielder charges in from the deep. Doesn't carry, as there wasn't enough power of timing behind the shot
6.5
Keemo Paul to Naman Dhir, 1 run, full and quick on middle and leg, Naman Dhir flicks it towards deep mid-wicket for a single
6.4
SIX! Keemo Paul to Naman Dhir, B0$, B1$ A good length delivery outside off, slight width on offer, Naman Dhir effortlessly lofts it over long-off for six more. That was middled to perfection, and was all about timing. Should have been promoted up the order in this rain curtailed contest
6.4
Keemo Paul to Naman Dhir, B0$, under pressure he has fired a short and wide ball outside off, out of Naman Dhir's reach
6.3
FOUR! Keemo Paul to Naman Dhir, B0$, B1$ Already 10 runs in 2 balls. This was slow, short and wide outside off, allows Naman Dhir to free his arms. He thumps it over mid-off, has enough elevation to clear the fielder as the ball races away to the boundary
6.2
SIX! Keemo Paul to Naman Dhir, B0$, that's a first ball maximum for Naman Dhir! Looks like he was batting in the nets before walking in to bat. Picks the bones out of this back of a length delivery, whipping it over deep square leg for half-a-dozen. That came right off the meat of the bat
B0$
6.1
OUT! Keemo Paul to Shreyas Iyer, B0$ Caught by Shamar Joseph!! A rusty knock by Shreyas Iyer comes to an end. Wasn't quite in his elements tonight. This was banged in short by Keemo Paul and Shreyas Iyer went for a pull. Miscues it towards deep mid-wicket, and Shamar holds on to another safe catch. He took Abhishek's catch earlier, now takes Iyer's catch. Safe hands in the field. Probably a blessing in disguise for India as Shreyas wasn't able to kick on. B1$
Keemo Paul to Shreyas Iyer, B0$ Caught!!
B0$
The drizzle is getting heavier, but they continue playing
5.6
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, 1 run, low full toss around middle and leg, Shreyas Iyer swings hard, only to get an inside edge towards short fine leg
5.6
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, B0$, full and wide outside off, misses the tramline comfortably
It has started drizzling again
5.5
Gudakesh Motie to Tilak Varma, 1 run, heaved towards deep mid-wicket by Tilak Varma for a single
5.4
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, 3 runs, B0$ Shreyas Iyer goes for the aerial route by swinging across the line, and miscues it completely. Rutherford charges in from the deep and tries to grab it, but the ball hits him on the chest. An overthrow allows them to come back for the third run
5.3
FOUR! Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, B0$
5.2
FOUR! Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, B0$, finally connects one. Gudakesh Motie goes full and Shreyas Iyer smashes it over the bowler's head as the ball almost goes the distance`
5.2
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, B0$, fired down the leg-side and that's a wide ball
5.1
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, no run, B0$. He heaved across the line against this full length delivery, and couldn't middle it. Sets off for a single without knowing where the ball exactly is. Shai Hope is quick to move across and gather the ball. Iyer was way outside the crease, but Hope couldn't nail a direct-hit at his end. Would have been curtains for the Indian captain otherwise
4.6
Shamar Springer to Shreyas Iyer, 1 run
4.5
Shamar Springer to Tilak Varma, 1 run, full toss outside off, Tilak Varma swings hard, but fails to middle it, just a single at long-off

B0$ 2 off 5, two dismissals

4.2
Shamar Springer to Tilak Varma, 1 run, pitched up by the bowler around off, Tilak Varma gets off the mark with an off-drive towards wide long-off

4.1
OUT! Shamar Springer to Sanju Samson, B0$ Bowled!! Knocked him over. Shamar Springer strikes on his first ball. On a length around off, it curves it slightly after the seam hits the deck, Sanju Samson stays put and swings across the line. Connects thin air though as the off pole goes for a toss. India are smashing boundaries at will, but Windies are striking back at regular intervals. B1$
Shamar Springer to Sanju Samson, B0$ Bowled!!
B0$
3.6
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, 2 runs, another full toss by Gudakesh Motie, Shreyas Iyer shuffles back and across in the crease, dragging it through mid-wicket for a couple of runs. Comparatively better over for Windies - only 10 runs from it
3.5
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, no run, clever bowling by Gudakesh Motie. Fires a widish yorker outside off as Shreyas Iyer walks away to play it
3.4
Gudakesh Motie to Sanju Samson, 1 run, on the shorter side around middle and leg, Sanju Samson drags it towards deep mid-wicket for a single
3.3
FOUR! Gudakesh Motie to Sanju Samson, B0$, juicy full toss outside off, almost at waist height, Sanju Samson throws the kitchen sink at it, slashing it over backward point for a boundary again
3.2
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, 1 run, tad short outside off, Shreyas Iyer slaps towards long-off for a single, couldn't middle it as he played it with hard hands
3.1
Gudakesh Motie to Shreyas Iyer, 2 runs
B0$
2.6
Shamar Joseph to Sanju Samson, B0$, B1$ Hint of width outside off, fraction short, Sanju Samson hops a touch in the crease and carves it over deep backward point for a well connected six. Looked a stylish upper cut, very close to the six hit by Sachin against Akhtar in the 2003 World Cup
2.5
FOUR! Shamar Joseph to Sanju Samson, B0$, B1$ Short and wide outside off, Sanju Samson throws the kitchen sink at it, smashing this short and wide ball over extra cover for a rollicking boundary. Even he joins the party. Was happy to watch Kishan take on the bowlers in the power play, it's now his time to take control
B0$\n70 - Abhishek Sharma in 2026\n68 - Suryakumar Yadav in 2022\n55 - Ishan Kishan in 2026\n54 - Abhishek Sharma in 2025\n48 - Shimron Hetmyer in 2026
2.4
Shamar Joseph to Shreyas Iyer, 1 run, back of a length delivery around middle and leg, Shreyas Iyer nudges it towards mid-wicket for a single
B0$
2.3
OUT! Shamar Joseph to Ishan Kishan, B0$ Caught by Rovman Powell!! Ishan Kishan walks back after playing a fantastic cameo. Change of pace does the trick for him. Even the previous delivery was a slower one, which Kishan couldn't middle. This one was banged in short and it arrived slightly late, 125 clicks, Ishan Kishan loses his shape while going for the pull, and the top edge has been taken by Powell at mid-on. B1$
Shamar Joseph to Ishan Kishan, B0$ Caught!!
2.2
Shamar Joseph to Ishan Kishan, 2 runs, 123 clicks outside off, a lot slower as compared to the previous ball, was on the shorter side and Ishan Kishan slashed it over point for a couple of runs
2.2
Shamar Joseph to Ishan Kishan, B0$, 146.4kph, good effort and pace by the bowler, but it's a wide ball down the leg-side. Ishan Kishan tried to flick it away, couldn't make contact though
B0$India and West Indies are the only teams with 2000-plus sixes in Men’s T20Is: West Indies (2026), India (2013 - until the end of the second over). New Zealand are next best with 1585.
2.1
FOUR! Shamar Joseph to Ishan Kishan, B0$, quality shot. Back of a length delivery outside off, Ishan Kishan arches back in the crease and slices it over the cover region. B1$
B0$
1.6
Romario Shepherd to Ishan Kishan, 1 run, B0$ Back of a length delivery around middle and leg, Ishan Kishan swipes it towards deep backward square leg for a single. He will be back on strike for the next over
1.5
FOUR! Romario Shepherd to Ishan Kishan, B0$, pitched up by the bowler outside off, this one straightens off the deck
1.5
Romario Shepherd to Ishan Kishan, B0$, tries to follow the batsman, but ends up bowling a wide ball down the leg-side
1.4
SIX! Romario Shepherd to Ishan Kishan, B0$, B1$ No doubt he's the number 1 ranked T20I batsman. This shot is a prime example. Moves away slightly and although there wasn't room for offer, Kishan goes down on his knee and scoops it over fine leg. That has cleared the roof of the Chinnaswamy, new ball please!
1.3
FOUR! Romario Shepherd to Ishan Kishan, B0$
1.2
Romario Shepherd to Ishan Kishan, 2 runs, to third man
1.1
SIX! Romario Shepherd to Ishan Kishan, B0$, Romario Shepherd has been greeted with a maximum. Back of a length delivery around middle and leg, Ishan Kishan stays put and flicks it over fine leg for half-a-dozen. Beautifully played!
B0$
0.6
Keemo Paul to Ishan Kishan, 1 run, cramped for room around middle and leg, tad short as Ishan Kishan clips it in front of mid-wicket for a single
B0$
0.5
OUT! Keemo Paul to Abhishek Sharma, B0$ Caught by Shamar Joseph!! Keemo Paul has the last laugh. He strikes on the very next ball. Back of a length delivery around middle and leg, Abhishek Sharma looks to flick it away, but can't get enough elevation. Just a gentle leap by Shamar at mid-wicket and he grabs it above his head. Quite an eventful over so far. Wides, a six and a wicket already in it. B1$
Keemo Paul to Abhishek Sharma, B0$ Caught!!
0.4
SIX! Keemo Paul to Abhishek Sharma, B0$, first maximum of the evening. Pitched up by the bowler around middle and leg, hint of inswing, Abhishek Sharma stays put and flicks it over deep mid-wicket for a towering six. Failed to put away the free-hit, but makes amends on the very next ball
0.3
Keemo Paul to Abhishek Sharma, no run, banged in short outside off, steep bounce and Abhishek Sharma swings and misses
The players are making their way out in the middle. The West Indies players are gathered in a huddle, and now the Indian openers enter. With only 9 overs to play with, the Indian batsmen will come out all guns blazing. The pitch has been under covers, so some early movement will be available for the pacers. Let's see what's in store! Here we go..
