Commentary
Team India registered a narrow three-run win over West Indies in a last-over thriller in the opening ODI here at Queen's Park Oval. Chasing a massive 309, the Nicholas Pooran-led side reached 305 for the loss of six wickets and fell marginally short.
With 14 runs to defend in the final over, India pacer Mohammed Siraj held on to his nerve and prevented Romario Shepherd (39* off 25) and Akeal Hosein (32* off 32) from crossing the winning line.
Shepherd - who was included in the playing eleven in place of Jason Holder - played an entertaining knock and gave the Indian camp some jitters with his explosive hits but in the end, he couldn't finish the game, to his disappointment.
Siraj and Yuzvendra Chahal were the pick of the bowlers for India as the duo returned with two wickets apiece.
For West Indies, Kyle Mayers (75) and Brandon King (54) were the ones who slammed the fifties, and Shepherd's knock in the death overs will give them the confidence to do well in the second ODI on Sunday at the same venue. The hosts will be looking to force the series to a decider with a win in the next tie.
For India, Shikhar Dhawan (97), Shubman Gill (64), and Shreyas Iyer (54) were the top run scorers. The visitors would be hoping for a better effort from the middle-order in the next game.
