India clinched an important 2-0 lead in ODI series against West Indies

Rohit-Dravid’s combo sealed an important win in the second One Day International match to lift the team to a 2-0 unassailable lead in the three-match series against West Indies. Hapless visitors gave away the second match as India experimented with their lineup while keeping their eyes intact on next year’s World Cup.

India opened with Pant, who was Rohit Sharma’s opening partner on Wednesday. He has the ability to be a game-changer for India. Shardul was handed a new ball as they defended a decent target. Prasidh Krishna also attacked Windies batters with an exceptional pace. India later relied on Washington Sundar instead of Hooda and the allrounder played to his strength as he proved he is worthy to be considered as Ravindra Jadeja’s back-up if needed. In the next match, India is eyeing a complete sweep against Kieron Pollard’s side as they welcome back Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer and Ruturaj Gaikwad for the third and last ODI.
