In other news, Pawan Kumar Sehrawat has gotten off to an incredible start in the Pro Kabaddi League, taking his team Bengaluru Bulls to the top of the table.

"When you compare it to the last game, wicket was a little slow, not much turn though. Need to just bowl wicket to wicket and try not to give width and not to go for fuller ones," Kuldeep says. "I think everyone knows how I'm nbowling. I'm just mixing up variations, wrong un, flipper and chinaman. It's just about deceiving the batsman in the air. I think they are playing me very well, Shai Hope and everyone. I donlt think they are uncomfortable against me. It's just about deceiving those batsmen in the air. It's difficult to switch format every 10 days. Before the start of this series, I was playing Tests, and now straightaway one-dayers. It's difficult to adjust length, and balls. The more you play, the better you get."

5.30 pm Considering India had a full strength attack, and this was a two-paced wicket, West Indies have got a fine total on the board. We won't know if it's match-winning because history suggests it will become much better for batting under lights. Nevertheless, Shai Hope was resplendent once again, his back foot punches through the cover very swoonworthy indeed. Finished with 95 off 113 balls and when he fell in the 44th over, it seemed West Indies would end up losing steam.

But out came Ashley Nurse and with some heavily enterprising strokepla, with which he led a ninth wicket partnership of 56 at 9.3 per over with Kemar Roach. Bhuvneshwar Kumar was casualty of that late hitting, conceding 70 runs in his 10 overs. But Jasprit Bumrah was a class apart. His bouncer to dismiss Kieran Powell was epic but he bettered it with a middle-stump seeking yorker to remove the dangerous Hope. We have a very interesting game on our hands and plenty more individual performances to look forward to. So make sure to come by in about a half an hour.

Saurabh Mantri: "That was highest 9th wicket partnership for WI in India"

Tintin Ninan: "As Shai blossoms into a consistent batsman, you can see all the different headlines around the world in the lines of "Windies still have Hope!""

Rishabh: "After the SA tour, Bhuvi has been a bit off this year, both with his health and his bowling. I hope he will turn things around quickly. Maybe giving too much rest has affected his rhythm. " Well they do say a bowler feels at his best with overs under his belt.

Sunny K: "Well played Windies! A score above 275 is a great one to defend.. and the credits must be given to Nurse, who helped giving hope again for Windies. Just don't want to imagine the nightmare if India could have Windies under 250 which seemed to be possible at times. Too after the change of game with the fall of holder and Allen, Nurse gave his treatment to the scoreboard. Let's see if nurse heals West Indies back into the series too! "

Bumrah to McCoy, no run, full and outside off, he swings and misses, so does Bumrah, on a five-wicket haul on his return to ODIs.

Bumrah to Nurse, OUT, lbw in front of middle, but Nurse goes for a review. More out of hope than anything because he has moved well across his stumps and this is a perfect yorker from Bumrah too. Ball-tracking shows three reds and Shamsuddin's decision stands

Bumrah to Roach, FOUR, dropped by Bhuvi at long leg. Granted he needs to make a lot of ground running to his left at long leg. And in the end he has to dive too. But the ball slips through his hands. Roach benefits despite being surprised by a bouncer that kept following him
