West Indies T20 team lost the easy match against Indian cricket team. Darren Sammy's superb bowling gave West Indies early break through. But India managed to recover.Rohit Sharma, dropped on 8, and S Badrinath, caught off a no-ball on 25, made a handy contribution for the team.
Two specialist spinners Harbhajan Singh and R Aswhin played for India and the wicket was spin wicket. But the West Indies spinners could not manage to bowl well.Only their captain Sammy's Medium pace exploited the conditions with slower offcutters, slicing a chunk out of India's batting during an unbroken four-over spell, even as Chris Gayle watched from the stands, dressed in flashy party wear and a cap that said "captain".
Sammy's first wicket was the debutant Shikhar Dhawan. It was a nice bouncer which kissed the bat on its way through to Andre Fletcher. Second wicket was Virat Kohli who got out by a massive leading edge to a slower delivery. Third wicket was Parthiv Patel. Fourth was Suresh Raina. Rohit Sharma was dropped early.
Rohit hit Rampaul for a six down the ground, and Badrinath hit two fours off Bishoo's next over. Badrinath was stumped although the umpire refused to refer it to the third umpire. 18th over was a disaster for West Indies as he began with five wides and was hit for two sixes, one each by Rohit Sharma and Yusuf Pathan. India took 20-run from that over.Later Harbhajan hit a six and a four in Bishoo's last over.
Marlon Samuels and Darren Bravo started the batting for West Indies but the run rate was very slow.So West Indies could not manage to win the game.
