WI vs IND Highlights: Tilak Verma, standing at the non-striking end, had to return unbeaten on 49 when Hardik Pandya hit a six to seal victory Suryakumar Yadav has scored 14 T20 international fifties.

Providence: India made a stunning comeback in the five-match series by defeating West Indies by seven wickets in the third T20I. In this do-or-die match, India needed to win at any cost. After winning the toss and batting first, West Indies scored 159 runs. Suryakumar Yadav alone scored more than half the runs in reply. Surya was dismissed for 83 off 44 balls. Given the way he was playing, he could have easily made it his fourth T20 international, but he was caught on the boundary while playing an aerial shot. Young batsman Tilak Verma also missed out on his second consecutive half-century in his second match. When he returned unbeaten on 9, captain Hardik Pandya, standing at the strike end, sealed the win with a six. Now the fourth match of this series will be played in Florida (USA) on 12th.

Suryakumar Yadav, who played an explosive innings of 10 fours and four sixes, had to come to the crease in the very first over Because debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal scored just one run in two balls in the first T20 international. Shubman Gill (6) was dismissed cheaply after this shock on six runs. From here, Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Verma took the score to 121 with 34 runs. The two had a match winning partnership.

Do-or-die

earlier in bilateral T-20 series, Team India was stuck in do-or-die situation 13 times. That is, to save the series, he had to win the match at any cost. Out of the last 13 matches, Team India had won 11 matches, while one match had no result. In 2015, Team India had to face defeat in a do-or-die series against South Africa. Now there is a victory here too.

50+ partnership

after a year Earlier, West Indies reached 50 in the seventh over as Brandon King and Myers put on 38 runs in the power play. It was the first time since August 2022 that a West Indies opening pair had put on a 50-plus partnership in a T20 match. Akshar ended the 55-run partnership by dismissing Myers in the very next over.

Match delayed due to odd reason

Rain, poor light, bad pitch are many reasons for late start of match, but the delay of this match was perhaps the strangest. After the toss, the Indian team came on the field in time to field first. Then suddenly the players started leaving the field. It was learned that the 30 yard circle line had not been drawn till then. After that the green signal was given to form a circle and start the match. This reason for the late start of the international cricket match took everyone by surprise.
