the ongoing three-match ODI series against India It’s just been a heartbreak for West Indies. The Caribbean side batted brilliantly in both the matches, but the Nicholas Pooran-led side were yet to win a single match in the series.
West Indies will be desperate to end an eight-match losing streak in the third ODI against India to avoid a humiliating whitewash. The third and final match of the series will be played on Wednesday at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain.
Earlier, in the opening game, the visitors posted a solid total of 308/7 in 50 overs. During the run chase, West Indies performed brilliantly. However, their effort went in vain as West Indies eventually managed to reach 305 runs.
In the second match, wicketkeeper-batsman Shai Hope scored a brilliant century as West Indies posted a defendable total of 311/6 in 50 overs. But they eventually lost by two wickets due to poor bowling. The valor of India’s all-rounder Axar Patel helped India win the second match. Patel had scored 64 off just 35 balls and secured the series for the Men in Blue.
After the completion of the third ODI, both the teams will be involved in a five-match T20I series. The T20 series is to start from July 29.
