WI vs IND - West Indies won the toss & opted to field first against India in the first ODI. However, this decision was proved wrong courtesy of a thunderous start by the Indian top-order batters. After a first-wicket partnership of 119 runs, Shreyas Iyer came on to bat at #3 and smacked a fifty.
Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill scored impactful fifties to shut the mouth of the critics while opening for team India. After Gill's run out, Shreyas Iyer seemed in good touch and it looked like the batter would definitely score a hundred in this match. However, his dismissal shocked all the spectators.
Iyer was batting on 54 runs. On the 5th delivery of the 36th over, Shreyas Iyer made room to smack a big shot over extra cover. At the time of impact, it looked as if the ball would clear the boundary. However, West Indian skipper Nicholas Pooran, fielding at deep extra cover, had other ideas.
