IND vs WI 3rd ODI Live Score - Ground A (03 October 2026)

 BEATEN! On a good length, outside off, slightly nipping in. Rohit Sharma slashes hard to cut it to the off side but the ball zips past his angled bat.

Rohit shows his cards early by charging down the track and seeing that, Paul bangs it short on the bodyline. Rohit is forced to sway away from the firing line by dropping his wrists.

Straighter, fuller, on the stumps, at 135.7 kph. Rohit drives it to mid off.

OUT! HIGH UP AND CAUGHT! Rohit falls just 8 short of his century and that would definitely bring a lot of relief in the West Indian camp. Short ball outside off, and Rohit's eyes light up instantly, backing himself into the pull. But he gets it off the toe end this time, with the bat twisting in his hands, and the ball balloons high towards deep mid-wicket. Jewel Andrew gets into an awkward position as he tracks the ball's trajectory late, but closes his hands around it to complete the catch while falling on the ground to his left. India are 141/3 as Paul breaks the mighty 137-run stand for the third wicket.

Short and going down leg, KL Rahul leaves it by getting inside the line. Not deemed a wide.

KL is off the mark. Length and outside off. Rahul punches it away to deep backward point for a single. A successful over for Paul. A massive wicket of Rohit and just one run off it.

Slips a full toss, on off, Rahul drives it along the ground to long off for a single.

Fuller and on leg again, Rahul clips it behind square on the leg side for a single.

Shortens the length on middle, Ruturaj tucks it to short mid-wicket.

Around leg, on a length, Ruturaj steers it behind square leg for a single. Much better over from Lawes. Just four singles off it.

Short of a length, on middle, Gaikwad swivels and pulls it to deep square leg for a single.

Hits the back of a length, on leg, KL rocks back and nudges it to the right of mid on for a single.

Outside off and short, let through.

On the fourth stump on a length, Ruturaj Gaikwad punches it across to wide mid on for a single.

Short of a length on top of off, KL Rahul controls the pull shot to deep square leg for a single. That brings the 150 up for India in 26.5 overs.

FIFTY FOR RUTURAJ GAIKWAD! He has ridden his luck, put down four times today, but he has made the most of those dropped chances and will look to convert this into a big one. This is his 2nd ODI half-century, to go with a hundred. With a long queue of players waiting for their chance in this Indian setup, Gaikwad has quietly made his case, showing he is a man the team can bank on when it matters. He gets to his fifty by tickling the length ball to deep fine leg for a couple of runs.

Nice and full, spinning from middle to leg. KL Rahul leans on and smothers the spin.

Pitched up, full at 84.8 kph, KL Rahul drives it to long off for a single.

Length ball on off, neatly driven by KL, on the up to deep cover for a single.

OUT! CAUGHT! Gaikwad's luck finally runs out, and it is Seales who strikes on his return. That's wicket number three for him. He hits the deck hard and extracts good bounce off a length around off, catching Gaikwad off guard. Slow to pull his bat away, Gaikwad keeps it hanging away from his body, and the ball chips off the edge towards backward point, where John Campbell moves a few steps to his right and completes a good catch. India slip to 160 for 4 in 28.5 overs.

On a full-ish length, on off, Naman Dhir clips it down to mid on. Just a single and a massive wicket of Gaikwad off Seales' fifth. 3/11 so far for him.
