AHMEDABAD: 50 overs West Indies 260 for 5 (Samuels 58, Sammy 41, Russell 40) v India.
It took Darren Sammy and Andre Russell 5.4 overs of mayhem to undo an afternoon of impressive work from India, and leave the hosts chasing a tricky 261 to take the series.
The pair came together after Ravindra Jadeja pulled off an outfield catch for the ages to remove Kieron Pollard, West Indies’ most dangerous batsman on paper.
Sammy and Russell proceeded to test that assumption with a partnership of delightful ferocity that yielded 79 in all, and 52 off the last three overs, giving West Indies a chance to win their fourth win in five visits to Ahmedabad. (ONLINE NEWS PK)
