Spectacular!

Shimron Hetmyer was batting superbly but he lost his wicket after spectacular fielding efforts by the Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli. He hit 23 runs off 14 balls. West Indies won the match by 2 wickets and levelled the series 1-1. Indian batsmen could not show a brilliant performance like that of the first IND vs WI previous game.

However, Shivam Dube was a batsman worth to watch out for. He smashed 54 off just 30 balls to give a great start to Indian batting. India scored 170-7 after they were asked to bat first. However, Indian bowlers could not defend their score at Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthpuram. The next IND vs WI T20I match 2019 will be played on December 11 (Wednesday) at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
