Yuzvendra Chahal to Brandon King
OUT! CAUGHT! Another Windies batter gives away his wicket at the wrong time and Yuzvendra Chahal has done the trick again for his side. This is bowled flatter and around off, turning away. Brandon King goes after it and tries to lift it over extra cover. The ball goes high off the toe end of the bat and towards deep extra cover where Shreyas Iyer takes a simple catch. King walks back in disappointment and now 57 runs are needed off 33 balls.

Bye! Siraj holds his nerves! This is full and around leg. Shepherd tries to heave across but misses. A boundary was needed but Shepherd fails to connect. Siraj is pumped up. Shepherd is disappointed as he is on his knees with head down. India win by 3 runs.
