India v West Indies 3rd ODI

Sehwag wins his 3rd toss in a row and will bat second for the 3rd time.

One change for each team, Aaron replaced by Mithun and Barath replaced by debut spinner Narine.

WI need to win this one to stay in the 5 match series having lost the first two.

Blazing hot day, so enjoy the game.

WI 193-5 in the 46th over. Sammy and Andre Russell out in the middle. Decent effort from Samuels earlier, scoring 58, and Darren Bravo looked good before he had to retire hurt with a problem that looked like a hamstring pull.

R Ashwin finishes with 1-33 in his 10. Took a pasting in the last game, but today, the 1 and only boundary of his bowling was scored in his 10th over.
Russell is giving his all, and today, for a change, Darren Sammy looks like he can at least slog a bit.

WI should really back Andre Russell, He can bowl real fast, and he, given the right kind of support, can become a pretty effective batter as well.

India 89-5.

Can WI close it out and secure the win? Certainly they have seemed more competetive than england were in October.

Not difficult, is it? Though you have to remember there is no Raina and no Dhoni here, nor Praveen Kumar who was very effective.

What is it with the Windies and leaving it late to score runs, often just failing to get a big enough total.

Great chance for them here, though.

Looks like it could be tight, this.

WI just a wicket away, they certainly deserve a win on this tour IMO

and WI get it, despite being given a scare by the last-wicket partnership as Rampaul fires in a superb yorker to trap Mithun LBW. Well done WI, well deserved. Unlucky on Sharma

Yeah they've exceeded expectations and been very competitive in bursts.

Well done the Windies, very pleased for them.

West Indies at last have a win.
India's top order has to take most of the flack.
Samuels, Russell, and Sammy did a good job with the bat, and led by Narine and Rampaul, the bowlers finished things off.

A good performance, by all accounts. Rohit impressed again though, I see, the boy is in a great run of form.

Narine looks to be a very talented spinner. Hope they can fit both Bishoo and Narine into the side, as a mystery spinner and a leggie will make Windies attack very potent.
