Tri-series: India strive after early wickets


NEW DELHI: Darren Sammy struck in the tenth over by sending back Virat Kohli to give India second blow at the score of 39 in the second ODI of the tri-series in Kingston.

Scorecard


Kohli made just 11 in 21 balls before getting caught by Chris Gayle brilliantly at slip.


Earlier, Kemar Roach took a brilliant return catch to dismiss Shikhar Dhawan after a decent start by India.


In the fifth over, Dhawan hit Roach's good length straight that touched the bowlers right hand and popped in the air before he recovered quickly to complete the catch.


Dhawan scored 11 and shared 25-run stand with Rohit Sharma for the first wicket.


West Indies stand-in skipper Kieron Pollard won the toss and elected to bowl against India in the second ODI of the tri-series at Sabina Park.


West Indies will miss Dwayne Bravo and Ravi Rampaul who are out due to injury.


The Indians got barely a few days to rejoice after their Champions Trophy win before boarding the flight to the Caribbeans and fatigue could be the only worry for a side which looks in unbeatable form.


The West Indians, on the other hand, would be eager to extract revenge for the loss to India in a Champions Trophy group match.


The hosts have in fact, started impressively in the ongoing series mauling Sri Lanka in their lung-opener. The biggest positive from the game was the return to form of Chris Gayle, who was slightly off-colour in the Champions Trophy.


West Indies: Chris Gayle, Johnson Charles, Devon Smith, Marlon Samuels, Darren Bravo, Kieron Pollard (C), Denesh Ramdin, Darren Sammy, Sunil Narine, Kemar Roach, TL Best


India: Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Dinesh Karthik, Suresh Raina, MS Dhoni (C), Ravindra Jadeja, R Ashwin, Bhuvneshar Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav
