Ishan Kishan received the player of the series award for scoring 184 runs in three matches including three half-centuries while Shubman Gill was adjudged the player of the match for scoring 85 runs.

Shardul Thakur finished things off for the West Indies as he took the last two wickets to end up with four scalps as India won the match by 200 runs and series 2-1.

Shardul Thakur the partnership breaker was at it again as he he broke the 55-run stand between Gudakesh Motie and Alzarri Joseph by dismissing the latter. India are now just one wicket away from a huge win.

Team India are just two wickets away from a huge victory against the West Indies in the third ODI as Kuldeep Yadav sent back Yannic Cariah to take his second wicket of the night.

Kuldeep Yadav after being denied of his first wicket on the day through DRS, finally gets his man in Alick Athanaze as West Indies lose their 7th wicket.

Shardul Thakur, the man with the golden arm, struck two quick wickets to send back Shimron Hetmyer and Romario Shepherd as West Indies continued to lose the plot.

Making a comeback after nine years, the longest gap between two matches for an Indian player, Jaydev Unadkat made an immediate impact with the wicket of Keacy Carty in his first over.

Mukesh Kumar has been in some form in the third ODI against the West Indies as he continued to trouble the top order with his swing. After dismissing the openers, Kumar got the big wicket of West Indies skipper Shai Hope as West Indies were reduced to 17/3.

Mukesh Kumar is breathing fire in Trinidad as he got his second wicket in successive overs with the movement he is getting off the surface.

Bengal pacer Mukesh Kumar has continued to impress one and all as he struck in the very first over to dismiss Brandon King. Mukesh opened the bowling and got some movement from the outset and got the outside edge.

Stand-in captain Hardik Pandya stayed unbeaten on 70 off 52 as he single-handedly helped India get to a massive score of 351 runs in the series decider against West Indies after a good knock of 85 runs by Shubman Gill and quick fifties by Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson.

Stand-in captain Hardik Pandya finally found his midas touch as got into the groove albeit a little late but ensured that India crossed 300 in the third ODI.

Team India continues to lose set batters as Shubman Gill after playing so well for his 85 runs has given his wicket away. Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson and now Gill all the set batters after playing a good knock threw their wicket as India have now lost four.

Sanju Samson after recording a single-digit score in the second ODI, came out with positive intent in the series decider and played like it was an audition to be in the Asia Cup squad. Samson raced off to 15 off just four deliveries before completing a 39-ball half-century. However, he soon got out but played a handy knock of 51.

29th over and India have reached 200 runs. Can India cross 350?

Yanic Cariah gets the better of Kishan. He scored 77 off just 64 balls with 8 fours and 3 sixes to his name

Ishan Kishan is belting the West Indies bowlers on a flat pitch now. Can he get to a century though?

Shubman Gill, who was certain in the Indian playing XI for the World Cup, suddenly had questions over his place as to how many chances he could get given how flat he looked in the four games before the third ODI. However, Gill responded to all of that with a well-compiled knock, smashing his first fifty of the tour.

Kishan and Gill have 100 runs for the opening wicket. It is a very good start for India in the decider!!!

Ishan Kishan gets to his third consecutive fifty. He has latched on to the chances in this series!! He will look to make it big in this game now!

Gill and Kishan have added fifty runs for the opening wicket....A good start for India again!!!

Shubman Gill is in some serious touch today!!! Can he make it big?

An early let off for Ishan Kishan. Keacy Carty has dropped him in the 2nd over.

India (Playing XI): Ishan Kishan(w), Shubman Gill, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Sanju Samson, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya(c), Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Jaydev Unadkat, Kuldeep Yadav, Mukesh Kumar

Two changes for India

IN - Ruturaj, Unadkat

OUT - Umran, Axar

India have been invited to bat first

It would not have come this far had the Indian team displayed a different outing on July 29 in the second ODI. But as it is widely said, the team did some experiments. Also as confirmed by Rahul Dravid the team is looking at a bigger picture, this series might not hold as big a magnitude as some might think. There is Asia Cup and World Cup around the corner and India wanted to try different people in the absence of some injured stars. They did it both times. Survived a mini scare in the first ODI and fell apart in the second. But now they face a test of humiliation of losing a series to a team that has not even qualified for the same World Cup that India are being said as one of the favourites.. Stay with us as we take you into the 3rd ODI.
