India vs West Indies Highlights And Cricket Score 2nd Match - ODI Commentary

End of Over : 50.0 IND: 321/6

Now, the chase is tall and won't be an easy one by any means. A target of 322 seems daunting enough, and with the track about to slow up even more, the fight against the Indian spinners will test the character and the skill of the Windies batsmen. Join us on the other side of the break for all the action.

Ambati Rayudu is caught on the sidelines for a little chat. He says that it was an important situation to build a stand and he is happy it worked out well. Smiles and states that he always tries to make the most of the opportunities he gets. Mentions that all throughout his career he has batted in the middle order and he is quite used to it. Admits that the Indian T20 League is a great platform and thanks Dhoni and Chennai. On batting with Kohli, Rayudu says that it's really unbelievable and the Indian skipper has taken his game to whole new level.

Not much to mention about the Windies bowling. Barring Nurse (who was their best) and Bishoo (who was economical), the rest got a hammering as they were sent to all parts of the ground by the Indian captain. Kohli's dropped chance on 44 by Jason Holder has surely haunted them. The Windies skipper didn't even bowl his full quota of overs for some reason.

Kohli joined hands with Rayudu and set it all up with a 139-run partnership. The latter departed after scoring a fine 73, but the captain carried on, despite him feeling the heat (literally). Made some useful stands with the rest coming in, the one with Jadeja worth 59 was the pick of them, and the skipper remained unbeaten till the end, powering the Men in Blue to 321.

India have posted a superb total on the board courtesy another masterclass from Virat Kohli. The Indian skipper doesn't seem to get tired of scoring big runs. Back-to-back hundreds, also broke several records on the way. Incredible effort, especially considering that Rohit and Dhawan were dismissed quite early.

Kemar Roach to Virat Kohli. SIX! Oh, you beauty! How do you do this? Makes it all look so easy. Just ahead of a length outside off, Kohli reaches out to it and lofts it over wide long on. The fielder there is right at the rope, he leaps but it's over his head.

49.3 2

Kemar Roach to Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli is just amazing. His 4th 150-plus score in ODIs. He carves this full delivery outside off square through cover-point. Runs hard, comes back for the second and gets in with a dive. Superb.

49.2 4

End of Over : 48 18 Runs IND: 303/5
47.6 4

Kemar Roach to Virat Kohli. FOUR! Roach has been taken to the cleaners by Kohli. The 300 is up for India. Full in length and well outside off, Kohli eyes that cover area and lofts it over the fielder there, just outside the ring. A boundary to end the over. 36 runs from the last two overs.

47.5 2

Kemar Roach to Virat Kohli. Full toss, Virat doesn't time it well but it's enough to fetch him a couple as he places it wide of long off.

47.4 1

46.4 6

Obed McCoy to Virat Kohli. SIX! Going on the offensive here now. Superb. Full again, it's the slower one this time, Kohli picks it up and so he gets low to this one. Launches it high and handsome over wide long on for a biggie. 15 off the over so far.

46.3 2

Obed McCoy to Virat Kohli. Kohli gives the charge and seeing this, McCoy lands it short around leg. Kohli still manages to help the pull towards short fine leg. A misfield there allows the batsmen to take two.

46.2 6

Obed McCoy to Virat Kohli. SIX! Right out of the screws! What a hit, Virat Kohli. Wow. Full and in the slot, Kohli stands firm and gives it the full swing of the bat. Middles it well and sends it deep into the long on stands for a huge maximum. With this, Virat Kohli becomes the fastest to get 1000 ODI runs in a calendar year (11 innings).

45.1 2

Marlon Samuels to Ravindra Jadeja. Sliding in on middle and leg, whipped through the gap in the mid-wicket region for a brace.

A friendly warning from umpire Ian Gould. He saw that the Indian batsmen had called for some fluids, but since it's come on a few times too many today, he just lets it be known.

End of Over : 45 6 Runs IND: 260/5
44.6 1

44.5 1

Kemar Roach to Virat Kohli. Plays this through square leg and crosses over.

44.4 1

Kemar Roach to Ravindra Jadeja. Not out. Clearly. Jadeja drives this off the outer half behind square on the off side. The first run is taken, then Jadeja takes off for the second when Kohli isn't even looking. He has to rush back to the bowler's end as the keeper throws it to Roach. The bails are off but Jaddu is in. Replays confirm the same.

A run out appeal against Jadeja is taken upstairs.

43.4 1

Marlon Samuels to Ravindra Jadeja. Flat ball outside off, Jadeja pulls it to deep mid-wicket for a single.

Ravindra Jadeja walks into the middle next.

43.3 W

Marlon Samuels to Rishabh Pant. OUT! Pant is gone! Short and flat from around the wicket, sliding in, keeps a little low as Pant goes for the wild slog across the line. It goes under the bat as a result and catches the left-hander on the pads. Loud shout and the finger goes up. Pant talks it out with his skipper and signals the 'T'. Replays roll in and show three reds. Another wicket down for India.

Review taken. Rishabh Pant has been caught leg before and he's taken the DRS against it. Looks out to the naked eye. Over to the TV umpire now...

43.2 1

Marlon Samuels to Virat Kohli. Looking for two but will get just the one. Kohli pushes it through mid on and runs the first one hard. Wants the second but won't get it as the fielder gets to the ball quickly.

42.4 1

Obed McCoy to Rishabh Pant. Smacks this full delivery outside off through the covers for one run.

42.4 wd

Obed McCoy to Rishabh Pant. Wide! Too far outside off, it goes from the other side of the tramline. So, a wide is called by the umpire.

42.3 4

Obed McCoy to Rishabh Pant. FOUR! The slower one again and this time Pant picks it up. Fuller around off, the southpaw with grace lofts it straight back over the bowler's head where there's no fielder. Boundary.

42.2 2

Obed McCoy to Rishabh Pant. Slower one on the stumps, Pant lofts it over mid-wicket, but not cleanly. It falls safely though in the mid-wicket region and a couple of runs are collected.

42.1 4

Obed McCoy to Rishabh Pant. FOUR! Muscle and power from Rishabh Pant. Length ball outside off, he has room to free his arms and he does so. Dismisses it out of his sight by smashing it on the up through the right of mid off for a boundary.

Obed McCoy to Rishabh Pant. Good length delivery in the off stump channel, Pant comes a step out and blocks it down.

Rishabh Pant to bat next.

40.2 W

Obed McCoy to MS Dhoni. OUT! First ODI wicket for Obed McCoy. He missed out on Kohli before, but gets Dhoni, which isn't bad at all considering the stature of the man. A back-of-the-hand length ball going across, Dhoni looks to play at it but he gets beaten as the ball goes between bat and pad. It takes the off bail and the Indian keeper is out of here. Timely breakthrough for the Windies.

40.1 1

38.6 1

Ashley Nurse to MS Dhoni. Comes down the track and whips it past the short mid-wicket fielder for a single.

38.5 0

Ashley Nurse to MS Dhoni. Not out! Umpire's call. Wasn't a bad review at all to be honest. Spinning in from off, Dhoni comes half forward to work it on the leg side but is caught on the front pad. Loud shout goes up but nothing from the umpire. Nurse is confident so he tells his skipper to take it. It goes upstairs and replays show the ball to be clipping the leg stump. The review stays intact.

Review time. It's for an lbw decision against MS Dhoni. Looks close.

38.4 3

Ashley Nurse to Virat Kohli. Good stop from Roach, saves a vital run for his side. Kohli goes deep inside the crease and works it through backward square leg. Seems it will go away to the fence, but Roach in the deep moves to his right and stops it.

Ashley Nurse to Virat Kohli. There it is! 10,000 ODI runs for Virat Kohli. Superb stuff from the prolific Indian skipper.

30.5 0

Kemar Roach to Ambati Rayudu. Back of a length angling in on middle, with a little swivel Ambati Rayudu pulls along the ground but can't beat the diving mid-wicket fielder.

Seems the debutant injured his left shoulder on that attempted catch on the previous. We have a slight halt in play as a result. Seeing this, the umpires smartly decide to call for Drinks. Anyway, Kohli and Rayudu are motoring along comfortably without much trouble. Their century stand is up and Windies need to break this partnership. Fast. Otherwise they run the risk of conceding a big total.

30.4 2

Kemar Roach to Ambati Rayudu. Dropped! But again, a valiant attempt. Would have been a blinder had he held on to that. Length ball outside off, Rayudu slaps this aerially to the left of wide mid off.

28.5 1

22.4 2

Obed McCoy to Virat Kohli. DROPPED! Oh, how could you, Jason Holder? Big moment in this game. Would have been a great moment for young Obed McCoy. Full and outside off, slower in pace, Kohli looks to go big downtown but doesn't connect well at all. It skies towards long off, where Holder goes back, stretches his hands out but can't keep a hold of it. Needless to ask, how costly will that prove?

8.4 W

Ashley Nurse to Shikhar Dhawan. OUT! That's hitting leg. Success for Windies. They have now removed both the Indian openers, that too, quite cheaply. A great use of the technology by the visiting team. Nurse bowls this one slower through the air and lands it around leg. Dhawan closes the face of his bat as he tries to tap it on the leg side. But he fails to make any connection and is rapped on the pads. They appeal but the umpire turns it down. Nurse, though, is very sure and convinces Holder to take the DRS. The replays roll in and it shows that the ball has straightened after landing and it's travelling to meet the leg pole. Dhawan walks back shaking his head.

Appeal for an lbw! It's not given. Ashley Nurse though is very sure and convinces his skipper to take the DRS. Let's see...

8.3 0

Ashley Nurse to Shikhar Dhawan. Sliding down the leg side, Dhawan tries to flick but misses and it goes off his pads to the on side.

What happened there? Oh dear, in his delivery stride, Nurse has stamped on the right foot of umpire Ian Gould. The bowler has to pull out as a result and later on apologizes. That's a first for me on a cricket field.

7.2 6

5.5 0

Kemar Roach to Shikhar Dhawan. Roach operates from 'round the wicket for the southpaw. He angles in a length ball on off, Dhawan drives it straight back and Kemar does well in his followthrough to take the pace off the ball. He deflects it towards mid on as the Indian skipper was seen diving inside his crease. Good awareness.

5.4 1

Kemar Roach to Virat Kohli. Keeps it on a length and outside off, Kohli plays at it with an angled bat past the sliding backward point fielder. The third man fielder though is quite square and that's why only a run is possible.

3.1 W

Kemar Roach to Rohit Sharma. OUT! A soft dismissal for Rohit Sharma. Roach is lucky to get this wicket, to be honest. It's short and wide outside off, begging to be hit, Rohit obliges and cracks it off his back foot. But he fails to get the placement right. Also, it's hit aerially and goes straight into the hands of Hetmyer at backward point. He makes no mistake and India suffer an early blow.

End of Over : 3 10 Runs IND: 15/0
2.6 2

Jason Holder to Shikhar Dhawan. Goes for a big one, an aerial shot but hasn't got enough meat on it. Holder digs in a short ball and Dhawan drags his pull shot over wide mid on. It falls in the deep before the rope and stops. The fielder retrieves it and they take a couple of runs.

Fine leg comes up. Square leg drops back.

Out come the Indian openers. It's a jam-packed stadium here in Vizag. Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan are the openers, as usual. India will be hoping for a big start from this pair. Jason Holder has the first new ball in his hand as he runs in to bowl the first over of the match. A slip in place. Here we go...

Windies' skipper, Jason Holder says that he isn't too bothered about bowling first. Reckons that the pitch won't change much throughout the course of this game. Adds that they would like to restrict the Indian team and then take the run chase deep. Admits that they need to be clinical with the bat during the chase. Informs about the one change, Obed McCoy is making his debut, replacing Oshane Thomas in the playing XI.

India's skipper, Virat Kohli says that it looks a good wicket and may get slower in the second half which also suits their bowling combination for this match. Mentions that Kuldeep Yadav is playing in place of Khaleel Ahmed and feels that it's a perfect bowling combination to defend the total.

Toss - Up goes the coin and it comes down in favour of the home team. INDIA ELECT TO BAT!

Pitch report - It's a very dry looking surface with no live grass. The bowlers will have to get their lengths right and have to rely on their variations. There will be help for the spinners. Also, dew might be a factor later on in the evening. Chasing appears to be a better option here.

Welcome, folks. It's time for the second ODI in the extreme heat of Visakhapatnam. Windies were humbled in the first game and would be hoping for a better performance in this outing, especially with the ball. The Men in Blue, on the other hand, would just look to keep their winning momentum going and register yet another comprehensive win. Will we see a more competitive game today? Stay with us to find out.

End of Over : 50.0 WI: 321/7

A thrilling contest finally comes to a close. India might still be leading the series 1-0, but they will know better than to take this tied result even remotely lightly and be wary of the threat the Windies possess. The visitors, will take heart from this and try to do the same next time too. The 3rd ODI takes place in Pune on 27th October, at 1330 local (0800 GMT). Do join in for that. In the meantime, you can switch tabs and catch all the action from the first T20I between Pakistan and Australia. Cheers!

India skipper and Man of the Match, Virat Kohli starts off by saying it was a great game of cricket and adds that the atmosphere was spectacular. Praises Windies for playing the way they did, especially the Hope-Hetmyer partnership. Is pleased with his personal milestones which he achieved through the game. Informs that he had a talk with his teammates and they agreed that they should be ready for any and all kinds of situations and embrace the challenge. Reckons that he thought Windies were in a strong position, but in the last 5-6 overs it was very much in the balance. States there were moments which could have gone either way, but they just have to take everything in their stride and move forward. On Ambati Rayudu, he mentions that they are looking at him as a serious contender for the no.4 spot and he's glad Ambati got some runs under his belt. Applauds Hope and Hetmyer as well and says they are superb talents.

Windies skipper, Jason Holder says it was a good game of cricket. Applauds young players like Hope and Hetmyer for coming so close, but is disappointed they couldn't get over the line. States he expects India to get par scores every time, as they are a good team. Reckons that they wanted to take it deep when he walked in and is pleased to see Hope be there right till the very end. Informs that he's happy with his batting line-up for crossing 300 in consecutive games and mentions there are a lot of positives to take. Rues some sloppiness in the field but says it can be obviously improved. On debutant Obed McCoy, he states he's a young lad and it was good to see him hold his nerve under pressure.

Shai Hope is seen talking to Murali Kartik. He says he is disappointed to not win. Mentions that he tried his best. Admits they lost wickets at crucial stages, especially Jason Holder's wicket. Reckons that the wicket was similar in both the innings and continues saying that it was easy to bat against the new ball and it got difficult as the game progressed. Ends by saying he is unhappy that they could not win.

Hope carried on after Hetmyer's dismissal, kept the scoreboard ticking with Jason Holder and were in the driver's seat. But the skipper's untimely run out did pose questions. It all went right down to the wire, and it took a scintillating boundary from Hope which saw the ending in a tie. Fitting that the centurion hit those last runs. Earlier in the day, India posted 321 on the board on the back of a scintillating Virat Kohli ton and a fluent fifty from Ambati Rayudu. It just wasn't enough to get the win.

A humdinger of a game. Chasing 322 on a tricky surface, the odds would have definitely been stacked in the hosts' favour, but Windies have done a tremendous job with the bat. It's a testament to their batting order that they've crossed 300 on consecutive occasion. The visitors lost a few early wickets but that mammoth 143-run stand between Hope and Hetmyer kept things every much in the balance, if not in Windies' favour throughout the game. The latter missed out on a ton, while the former eventually went on to remain unbeaten on 123.

The crowd in the stadium has gone silent as they still haven't been able to comprehend what's happened here. Mixed emotions in the middle of the park, a few smiles, some heads dropping down. No team's lost, but only cricket's the winner tonight.

11.6 W

Kuldeep Yadav to Marlon Samuels. OUT! Samuels has to take the long walk back as that has clipped the top of off before going into Dhoni's gloves. Another beauty from Kuldeep, his second wicket in his second over. He has the last laugh. It is the googly and it is pitched around middle, Samuels plays inside the line, the turn beats his outside edge and it seems to have cleaned him up. Samuels though feels it is Dhoni's glove which has disturbed the stumps. He waits there, the umpires have a chat and then go upstairs. Replays show that Marlon has been clean bowled. He walks back with a forlorn look on his face and Windies are in trouble here. Also replays show, maybe Samuels could have played it on the front foot. He was done in by the pace on that one as it was bowled a touch quicker.

Has Samuels been knocked over? Samuels does not feel so but Dhoni is pretty confident. They are going upstairs to check. Let me tell you, when Dhoni is confident, most of the times the batsman has to take the long walk back.

11.5 4

Kuldeep Yadav to Marlon Samuels. FOUR! Samuels is dealing in boundaries here. It is tossed up outside off, Marlon drives it square on the off side and the ball races away. He is cashing in on every delivery which is offered width.

Kuldeep Yadav to Chandrapaul Hemraj. OUT! TIMBER! We did mention the real test begins now for the Windies and Hemraj has failed it. He has been knocked over by a brilliant googly. This is bowled slower through the air outside off, it pitches and comes back in. Hemraj fails to pick it, he tries to drive leaving a big gap between bat and pad. The ball sneaks through and hits the middle pole. Kuldeep is up and running. Excellent change of bowling. A much-needed wicket as Hemraj was looking really good out there.

9.2 4

Kuldeep Yadav to Chandrapaul Hemraj. EDGY FOUR! Tossed up on off, it turns away. Hemraj prods forward and tries to drive but the ball takes an outside edge, goes past the slip fielder and into the third man fence. However, there were encouraging signs for the bowler as the ball did turn.

The length from Shami is a bit on the shorter side around middle, Powell steps forward and tries to play the pick up shot across the line. He lifts it over mid-wicket but fails to generate enough timing or power behind his shot. Rishabh Pant in the deep makes no mistake. India draw first blood. Windies need 286 runs in 263 balls.
