Gill, Chahal lead India to series win over WI

block

India underlined their strength in depth with a crushing 119-run victory over the West Indies (WI) on the Duckworth/Lewis method in the rain-effected third and final One Day International (ODI) at Queen’s Park Oval in Trinidad. Opening batsman Shubman Gill was left stranded two runs short of a maiden senior international century as rain ended the visitors’ innings at 225 for three off 36 batting first. Set a revised target of 257 off 35 overs, the home side crumbled to 137 all out off 26 overs with leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal leading the rout with figures of four for 17.
Missing seven first-choice players for this Caribbean journey, India completed a 3-0 sweep and also extended their winning run in ODI campaigns to 12 series.
