Key Highlights

  • Asked to bat, West Indies executed a clear attacking blueprint as they rode on Roston Chase’s foundation before unleashing a late assault by Rovman Powell (34 not out; 19 balls) and Jason Holder (37 not out; 22 balls) to post an imposing 195 for 4.
  • In front of a packed Eden Gardens with over 65,000 in attendance, Sanju stood tall on a night when India’s in-form batters faltered under pressure.
