On August 6, India (IND) will face the West Indies (WI) in the second T20I match of the India Tour of the West Indies at the Providence Stadium in Guyana. They have already played one match in the series, which has become extremely entertaining. West Indies won the match on the very last ball. India would like to make a big comeback and win the second match.
The opening T20I encounter of the series was contested at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, where West Indies won the toss and chose to bat as expected.
They got off to a good start, scoring 29 runs in four overs for their first partnership. Then they lost a couple of wickets in quick succession, and it looked like they’d be in trouble, but that’s when Nicholas Pooran and Rovman Powell came together to form a good combination. They each scored 41 and 48 points, respectively, to help the squad attain a respectable total of 149 points.Shubhman Gill was lost by India with the score of just five runs due to their poor and sluggish start. Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav, the following partnership, got some respectable runs, but Kishan exited soon after. While scoring 33 runs off just 22 balls, Tilak Verman appeared to be the most talented player on the pitch, but he was unable to advance the situation considerably. India kept dropping wickets at regular intervals, which allowed them to stay in the game, but eventually they ran out of batters when it was time to put the game away. They could only muster 145 runs by game’s finish, losing by four runs.
