Shai Hope: We are going to bowl first, this time around. We gotta looks at the conditions, it's wet and will get worse in the evening. Quick turnaround, trying to learn from the mistakes. Just come back stronger. One change for us.Forde is out, and Motie is in

Let's go guys!

.................The fact that Ranchi is home to one of India's most popular celebrities ever is no secret. But another Indian wicketkeeper, who plays purely as a batter for India these days, rediscovered himself right in this city.

We're moving a few hundred kilometers south-east from Lucknow to Ranchi as West Indies' tour of India continues to cover the length and breadth of the country. India are 1-0 up in the five-match series - are the days of three-match T20I series gone already? - and will be looking to take a step towards clinching the series already. But can West Indies find a way to halt India's home juggernaut?

"It's a pleasantly cool evening, with afternoon rain concerns giving way to near-perfect playing conditions. One of the ground's most charming features is its ticketed grass banks, popular with spectators and reminiscent of watching cricket in South Africa. Not a bad setting for an evening of international cricket, eh?"

The West Indies players gather in a huddle, arms draped over each other’s shoulders, with skipper Shai Hope doing all the talking.

Meanwhile, Indian openers Sanju Samson and Abhishek Sharma stride out to the middle. Left-arm spinner

Akeal Hosein has the new ball in hand and he is up against left-hander Abhishek.

 We are all set to go..

IND 1/0 (0.1) (Sanju Samson 0(0) Abhishek Sharma 1(1)) |

Romario Shepherd to Abhishek Sharma, 2 runs, almost a replica of the previous delivery! Abhishek Sharma once again times the drive to deep extra cover but there is a man placed now at the deep, but he can't prevent a brace

2.1

4

Akeal Hosein to Sanju Samson, FOUR, streaky, but it doesn't really matter in this format! Drifting in off the length, Sanju Samson throws the kitchen sink at it and gets a thick edge that flies to the right of the keeper for a boundary

IND 25-0(2.1) CRR:11.54

2.2

Akeal Hosein to Sanju Samson, no run, oh no, Pooran has dropped a sitter at cover! Sanju Samson smashes this length delivery to the left of the fielder at cover who gets both hands to it but fails to hold on.

You have to take the catches
