Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma lead the way

Overs 46-48.1(Ind: 270/5)

Jadeja hit the winning runs and Kohli racked up a valiant century but Rohit Sharma ensured that he would be in the middle for an Indian victory.

With Roach bowling his final over, Rohit Sharma was biting his time with singles but he spotted a slower one early and hoisted one over long-off for the maximum and effectively seal the match for India.

It was getting tense with couple of dot balls after Raina's wicket. Rampaul was bowling in the right areas and Sammy finally got the field in to restrict the singles. Kemar Roach picked up the wicket of Suresh Raina in his 9th over for nought.

Overs 41-45 (Ind: 247/4)

After reaching his hundred Virat Kohli let himself loose with some quick runs. Though he was living dangerously, he was  lucky enough to get few edges to the boundary. He was eventually picked up by Ravi Rampaul on 117 from just 123 deliveries but not before he had put India in a winning position.

Virat Kohli racked up his 8th ODI hundred as he lead the run chase of 270.

Overs 36-40 (Ind: 210/3)

India crossed the 200 run mark and the required run rate was exactly 6. 60 runs needed off 60 balls.

Overs 31-35 (Ind: 172/3)

Sammy missed a trick or two when it came to restircting the duo of Kohli and Rohit as they forged the 100 run partnership.

Overs 26-30 (Ind: 152/3)

Sammy tried himself, Pollard Samuels and Roach to break the partnership but Kohli and Rohit looked solid in the middle milking runs from every corner of the field.

Overs 21-25(Ind: 122/3)

Virat Kohli racked up his 18th ODI fifty as he, along with Rohit Sharma are turning the heat on the Windies.

Overs 16-20 (Ind: 97/3)

The wicket of Viru brought in Rohit Sharma and after three uncomfortable deliveries, he plunged on to a short one from outside-off  to deep midwicket, a classic pull and he was under way. At the other end, Kohli once again was displaying maturity in the run chase.

West Indies had opted for the bowling powerplay and they brought in the part time offie Marlon Samuels in the 16th over. The very first ball Sehwag tired an inside out shot and was holed out at long-off and the plan worked.

Sehwag was playing the waiting  till then and like a raging bull seeing red, Sehwag went after the spinner only to perish on 26.

Overs 11-15 (Ind: 75/2)

After  a slight rain delay the match was resumed and Sehwag looked to force things along with Virat Kohli.

Overs 6-10 (Ind: 45/2)

It was a subdued start by Virender Sehwag as the maverick opener let others do the talking. With Guati and Parthiv back in the hood, Virat Kohli had been the agresssor. The West Indies attack was disciplined to this point. 

Adrian Barath plucked one out of thin air to dismiss Gautam Gambhir (12) for another cheap score. The bowler -- who else than Ravi Rampaul. It was a short and wide delivery and 10 out of 10 times Gauti would have dispatched for a boundary as he would have done numerous times, but not today. Barath timed his jump to perfection stretching out his right hand to intercept the speeding delivery.

Overs 1-5 (Ind: 23/1)

 As is the norm, Sehwag lived dangerously for the first five overs and was even dropped by Sammy.

  Kemar Raoch delivered the first blow as he sent the tentative Parthiv Patel packing fot just 2 runs.

Rampaging Rampaul leads Windies to 269/9

Overs 46-50(WI: 269/9)

Ravi Rampaul finshed off the Windies innings with a cracking six over the bowler's head. Windies made 269 for 9 in 50 overs with Ravi Rampaul unbeaten on 86 ably supported by Kemar Roach (24).

Overs 41-45 (WI: 229/9)

With Rampaul at the helm of affairs, Kemar Roach stuck in supporting his fellow fast bowler as the inexperience of the pace attack was quite evident in the final overs. With Ashwin hit around the park for runs, the pace battery had the opportunity to wrap up the tail but failed to do so.

The trio of Vinay Kumar, Varun Aaron and Umesh Yadav tired too many things rather than sticking to wicket-to-wicket bowling. They seldom were on target with their yorkers.

Overs 36-40 (WI: 208/9)

Ravi Rampaul was on a rampage but with the bat as the pacer went beserk clubbing four sixes and three fours en route to a brisk 50 to put some life into the Windies innings.

Lendl Simmons has been the only West Indian basman who has done reasonably well this year and here also he put up a valiant effort of 78 trying to forge partnerships. He played with much maturity and his 102 ball vigil was the only thing that was holding the Windies innings together.

But he was run out attempting to take a second run.

Overs 31-35 (WI: 167/8)

Andre Russell was clean bowled by Ravindra Jadeja for 11 runs as Lendl Simmons waged a lone a battle in the middle. Windies were able to cross the 150 run mark in the 31st over.

Overs 26-30 (WI: 148/7)

West Indies were in total disarray as wickets tumbled in heap and captain Darren Sammy once again failed to impress with the bat. He was not able to judge the length of the ball and stayed back in his crease as the ball spun in.

Overs 21-25 (WI: 120/6)

Pollard and Simmons resuced Windies from the mess that the Indian pacers had put them in and were rebuilt the innings. Sehwag got in spinners to operate from both ends and the man of the moment Ravichandran Ashwin bagged the important wicket of Keiron Pollard.

After hitting Aswhin for two massive sixes, Pollard went for a forward defence only to loop the ball up to silly point. Pollard was the sixth batsmen out and with Lendl Simmons remaining as the lone recognised batsmen, Windies might struggle to play out the 50 overs.

Simmons at the other end completed yet another enterprising half century.

Overs 16-20(WI: 88/5)

Umesh Yadav's good run with the ball continued as the pacer bagged his third wicket to leave Windies tottering with five wickets down.

Its been pace all along for India and Windies have been rattled. Sehwag was attacking from ball one and he got the dividends in the form of quick wickets.

Overs 11-15 (WI: 62/4)

Against the run of play, Darren Bravo gifted his wicket to Vinay Kumar when he was on 13. Simmons and Bravo were looking good for a solid partnership but the classy left hander tried clearing mid-on with a uppish delivery only to end up giving a simple catch to mid-on.

One ball later Vinay struck again with the wicket of Danza Hyatt to leave Windies tottering at 55-4.

Overs 6-10 (WI: 39/2)

Umesh Yadav continued to bowl well barring the 10th over where he was a bit wayward. Lendl Simmons on the other hand looked in good touch and West Indies got a move on after a shaky start.

Yadav in the 7th over had again produced a near perfect delivery to scalp Marlon Samuels (4). Samuels managed to get a leading edge to third slip were Raina executed a fine low catch.

Overs 1-5 (WI: 13/1)

Visakhapatnam: One could say this is just a mediocre West Indies line-up but the inexperienced pace attack are getting it easy, but don’t be fooled because they are bowling like a well oiled machine. Vinay Kumar swung the ball well, Umesh Yadav with pace produced a couple of wicket taking deliveries in the first five overs.

Umesh Yadav sent opener Adrian Barath packing for nought in his first over.

Yadav had been extracting pace and was probing at the outside off line and produced a perfect out swinger in the final ball to induce an edge off Barath duly taken by Parthiv behind the stumps.

The ball pitched a little short of good length and moved away very very late.

After a slight delay owing to the mild drizzle, Indian captain Virender Sehwag won the toss and elected to bowl first at Vizag.

The conditons at Dr Y S Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium are overcast and with two new balls being employed from either ends, Indian seamers would have a field day in the first hour of play.
