After the dismissal of Hardik Pandya, India kept losing wickets at regular intervals and were restricted to 145/9, losing the series opener by 4 runs.

Earlier, West Indies opener Brandon King started off aggressively but his partner Kyle Mayers was struggling to get going. Returning Yuzvendra Chahal made sure the openers doesn’t stitch together a big partnership and cleaned them up in his first over itself.

Nicholas Pooran and Rovman Powell batted brilliantly and they smashed the Indian bowlers all over the park. However, the bowlers made a terrific comeback and didn’t let any West Indies batter score a fifty. India restricted the hosts to 149/6 as Yuzvendra Chahal and Arshdeep Singh picked two wickets each while Hardik Pandya and Kuldeep Yadav got one wicket each.

Speaking after the match, Hardik Pandya said that they made some huge errors that cost them the first T20I. However, the skipper was hopeful of the young team learning from mistakes.

“We were right to chase. We made some errors which costed us the game. A young team will make mistakes. We will learn. Good four games ahead.“
