Highest run chase in ODI: Highest ODI run chase in West Indies

Highest run chase in ODI: The Windies put on a commendable show with the bat yet again, to pose a still target before India in 2nd ODI.

During the second ODI of the ongoing India’s tour of West Indies at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, the West Indies have impressed with the bat for the second consecutive occasion, to hand a decent enough target of 312 before the Indians, who have their eyes on a series victory.

A gritty 13th ODI century for Shai Hope (115 off 135) in his 100th ODI appearance, and a scintillating half-century from skipper Nicholas Pooran (74 off 77) were the two instrumental contributions during the West Indian innings.

Hope’s half-century stand with Kyle Mayers (39 off 23) for the first wicket, and then a 117-run stand alongside skipper for the fourth wicket, were the vital partnerships which have given their bowlers a real shot at levelling the three-match ODI series.

As for the Indian bowlers, Shardul Thakur, with figures of 7-0-54-3, was the pick of the lot, with Deepak Hooda, Axar Patel, and Yuzvendra Chahal picking up one wicket apiece.
