Moreover, Windies is not playing with their best side with the likes of Chris Gayle and Evin Lewis and also Andre Russell who is injured. Meanwhile, the young talents had put up some great show, as they tie one game and win one.

In spite of such results on the paper, the bowlers didn’t seem to bother Virat Kohli much. The India captain has already scored 404 runs so far in three matches and will like to continue his excellent form in the remaining two games.

However, Nick Compton tried to take a dig at Virat Kohli’s achievement, as he questioned Windies credentials as an ODI team. He replied, “Against the West Indies?” in a way that he is trying to say the achievement is not something special because he had made it against a weak Carribean side. While the bowling was not the best, no feat can be undermined in cricket at the highest level and scoring three consecutive centuries is not a joke at all.
