IND vs WI 1st ODI Highlights: Kuldeep Yadav guides India to five-wicket win

Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja stole the limelight but it was not a convincing win for India. They lost five wickets while chasing 115 runs and will be hoping for an improved performance in the second ODI on July 29.

Ishan Kishan fails to finish the game for India as lost his wicket cheaply after scoring 52 off 46. Gudakesh Motie takes his second wicket of the game to strike the fourth wicket for his team.

Gudakesh Motie dismisses Suryakumar Yadav on lbw wicket and then Hardik Pandya fails to return to the crease in time at non-striker end. Ravindra Jadeja joins Ishan Kishan in the middle ahead of the likes of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.

After the early departure of Shubman Gill, wicketkeeper batter Ishan Kishan (23* off 24) and promoted star Suryakumar Yadav (15* off 20) react with promising cricket in the middle to bring 50 on the scoreboard in 10 overs. 

After IPL 2023, Shubman Gill has recorded 18, 13, 6, 29*,  and 7 scores. A sign of early worry for India ahead of ICC ODI World Cup 2023?

Returning pacer Jayden Seales gives West Indies a breakthrough with Shubman Gill's crucial wicket in the 4th over. Brandon King takes a sensational catch at second slip. Suryakumar Yadav walks in to bat at no.3 ahead of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.

Rohit Sharma sits back as a young duo of Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill open for India to chase a 115-run target. Who will bat at no.3? 

Kuldeep Yadav picks another to put West Indies out of misery at Kensington Oval. He finishes with four wickets while conceding just six runs and Ravindra Jadeja picked three for himself to bowl out West on just 114 runs in just 23 overs.

After Jadeja's impressive spell, Kuldeep Yadav cracks West Indies' tail. He dismisses Shai Hope to bring West Indies down to nine wickets. The hosts' skipper scored a brilliant knock of 43 off 45 to drag his team past a total of 100.

After removing dangerous Shimron Hetmyer in the 16th over, Jadeja continues his magic with two wickets in his next over to dismiss Rovman Powell and Romario Shepherd. Virat Kohli grabs a one-handed diving catch at second slip to contribute in Shepherd's wicket.

Shimron Hetmyer fails to put up a rescue act as Ravindra Jadeja sends him packing at an individual score of 11. Rovman Powell joins captain Shai Hope in the middle.

West Indies lose their third wicket with opener Brandon King walking out after scoring 17 runs off 23 balls. Shardul gets his first wicket of the game to stumble West Indies to 45/3 in 9 overs.

Indian debutant Mukesh Kumar bags his first wicket in the form of Alick Athanaze in the eighth over with Ravindra Jadeja taking a stunning catch at point. 

West Indies opener Kyle Mayers scored just 2 off 9 as Hardik produces a brilliant start for India. Rohit Sharma picked an easy catch at mid-on to add early pressure on the hosts.

West Indies (Playing XI): Shai Hope(w/c), Kyle Mayers, Brandon King, Alick Athanaze, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Romario Shepherd, Yannic Cariah, Dominic Drakes, Jayden Seales, Gudakesh Motie
