The series decider between India and West Indies is currently taking place at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium Turf Ground in Lauderhill, Florida. The game hangs right in the balance as the hosts are opting to bat first and have lost three wickets at regular intervals. 

After India lost both Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill in the powerplay, Suryakumar Yadav along with Tilak Varma tried to bail the team out of trouble. They did to some extent and played some magnificent strokes, in particular the left-hander. 

Tilak Varma continued his fine form in the series and looked set for another big knock but he was undone by the brilliance of Roston Chase, who bowled and plucked a stunner to send the batter packing and jolt Indian team further. 

Tilak Varma, who was batting brilliantly, tried to drive the ball from Roston Chase to long-off. He didn’t connect it properly as his bat hit the ground and the ball hit the toe end of the bat and went towards the right of the bowler. 

Roston Chase put in a full-stretch dive to his right and took a one-handed stunner. He immediately appealed for a clean catch and after watching the replays, the third umpire confirmed that it was a clean catch.

If this was not enough, he then scored unbeaten 49 runs in the third game and also chipped in with unbeaten 7 run knock in 4th game.
