Hope, who remained unbeaten after hitting nine sixes and six fours, was well supported by Sherfane Rutherford, who smashed 84 in 37 balls. The West Indies chased down India’s total of 249/5 in 18.3 overs.

India were served well by Ishan Kishan’s 22-ball 43, skipper Shreyas Iyer’s 18-ball 40 and Tilak Varma’s 18-ball 44. Roston Chase was the best West Indies bowler on the night, returning with impressive figures of 3/24 in 4 overs.
