IND vs WI 3rd T20I: The 3rd T20I match of the 3-match series between India and West Indies is being played at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. West Indies need to chase down 185 runs in 20 overs to avoid a clean sweep. Indian batters Suryakumar Yadav (65*) and Venkatesh Iyer (35*) played thunderous knocks.

Left-hander lower middle-order batter Venkatesh Iyer smacked 35 runs off 19 balls. During this destructive inning, Venky Iyer maintained a strike rate of 185 while thrashing the Windies bowlers all around the park for 4 boundaries and 2 sixes. During this, Venkatesh Iyer took an experienced Windies all-rounder Jason Holder and displayed his '360-degree' batter side today as he smacked the six over fine leg, and a video of the same is being liked and talked about on Twitter.

This incident happened in the 18th over of the Indian innings. Suryakumar Yadav was at the crease with Venkatesh Iyer. On the 5th delivery by Jason Holder, angled across the left-hander, Iyer walked across and got inside the line of the ball, used the pace of the ball and helped it comfortably over fine leg, as he generated a tremendous amount of power.
