The Independent Voice of West Indies Cricket

Alzarri Joseph to Shubman Gill, SIX, hammered! Alzarri's predictability costing him there. Gill knew it would be short or back of a length, he just waited for it back in the crease and nailed the pull over deep mid-wicket
Third man is inside the ring. Three men out in the deep leg

Alzarri Joseph to Shubman Gill, FOUR, now off the front foot. Alzarri went a bit fuller with his length and Gill, though sitting deep in the crease, adjusts quickly to loft it down the ground. The ball plugs in the outfield but has enough to trickle into the rope
When you keep getting hit for six when you bang the ball into the pitch you going keep bowling short?

Alzarri Joseph to Shubman Gill, FOUR, hundred for Gill. India's captain is leading from the front. His side is chasing a mountain and he brings up a 62-ball hundred. The helmet comes off, the bat is raised and shown to all corners. Rohit walks up and embraces him. Gill started slowly, allowing Rohit to be the aggressor but he has stepped up in the last few overs and outscored his partner.

Vitel Lawes to Rohit Sharma, 1 run, dropped! Carty has put down in the deep. That is a regulation catch and should have been taken. Dragged short but that is the thing with wrist spinners, such deliveries bring them wickets, Rohit rocks back and pulls to deep mid-wicket. Not off the middle and Carty comes in, tries to take it low and makes a mess. They dropped a couple in the first ODI as well and it cost them, this might too. Rohit was on his haunches thinking he was a goner but started running as soon as Carty grassed the catch

Alzarri Joseph to Shubman Gill, FOUR, Gill continues to motor along. He moves around in the crease and Alzarri thought he would move away, and tries to follow him but Gill stays put and flicks it to the left of short fine. Just a pick-up shot and there's no stopping that
22.5
Alzarri Joseph to Rohit Sharma, FOUR, this is poor from an experienced bowler like Alzarri. Not the first time he's strayed down leg. Rohit does not have to do much, uses the pace on offer and helps it along over short fine, couple of bounces and over the rope

Vitel Lawes to Rohit Sharma, FOUR, field changes are not working. The bowlers are not helping themselves. The runs continue to flow as the Guwahati crowd are being entertained. Shortens the length on the googly, Rohit gets on top of the bounce and cracks it square of the wicket. The sweeper was in place this time but Shamar tries to stop it with his boot but the ball trickles back into the rope

Vitel Lawes to Rohit Sharma, FOUR, now Rohit gets an overpitched delivery and he puts it away. These two are competing with each other. Very full and outside off, Rohit opens the bat face and slices the drive square of the wicket. No one at sweeper to stop that

Jayden Seales to Shubman Gill, FOUR, fabulous shot!
24.3
Jayden Seales to Shubman Gill, FOUR, even luck is going India's way. Not the first time Seales has induced a false shot from Gill. But unfortunately for him and West Indies, the ball has eluded the stumps. This one nips in and catches Gill in the crease, he brings his bat down and squirts an inside-edge past leg-stump
24.2
Jayden Seales to Shubman Gill, SIX, oh my! That is absolute disdain by Gill. 136.5ks fullish delivery on off, Gill does not have a big stride or anything, leans into the whip and sends it sailing into the deep mid-wicket stands

Jayden Seales to Shubman Gill, FOUR, whoa! Each shot keeps getting better than the previous one. This is once again not a boundary ball. Full and attacking the stumps, Gill presents the full face of the bat and drives it straight of mid-on. Bit of words exchanged between Gill and Seales, Rohit difuses the situation
