Fans on X reacted after India National Cricket Team produced a stupendous effort to win the fourth game against West Indies by 9 wickets within just 17 overs at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground, Lauderhill, Florida to level the series 2-2.
Opting to bat first, West Indies openers Kyle Mayers (17) and Brandon King (18) got out after blistering starts but Shai Hope, who replaced Johnson Charles in the team played a vital knock of 45 runs but after that Indian spinners Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel and Yuzvendra Chahal ran through the middle order and left the opposition tottering at 106/5.
However, Shimron Hetmyer brought his side back into the game with his staggering knock of 61 runs. His knock took West Indies to a total of 178 runs. For India, Arshdeep Singh picked three wickets whereas Kuldeep Yadav bagged two wickets as well.
Chasing the target, Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal set the stage on fire and made the opposition look clueless. They smashed West Indies bowlers all over the park and stitched 165 runs for the opening partnership. Gill was back in the hut for 77 runs but Jaiswal remained unbeaten on 84 runs to take India home.
India chased the target within 17 overs and won the game by the margin of 9 wickets. With this win, they leveled the series 2-2 after being 2-0 down in the series. The stage is now set for the series decider, which will take place tomorrow at the same venue.

Team india on a flat pitch had a different strategy while bowling at least with the new ball & The way they chased it looked like they would have crossed 200 easily. Well done boys ? ??

Not a 10-wicket win, but a 9-wicket win would do for India tonight. Well played, Jaiswal and Shubman! The fifth and final T20I of the series will decide who takes the series between West Indies and India, it's very tight at the moment. Best wishes to both teams ? #WIvIND

Yashasvi Jaiswal – the future of India…!!
An incredible innings of 84* (51) with 11 fours and 3 sixes. Just his 2nd T20i, but Jaiswal took the responsibilities and scored runs. Amazing temperament and abilities! pic.twitter.com/vkLtwkEWJk

It's funny to watch haters crying about pitch and opposition when Shubman Gill scores runs for India, He has most hundred and is the highest run scorer for India in 2023 when it comes to all three format, Don't know how haters will tolerate him in Indian Jersey for next decade. pic.twitter.com/m6nWh2ygiA
