India vs West Indies 1st T20I Highlights : India win by 6 wickets

Highlights from India's first T20I against the West Indies: Suryakumar Yadav (34 off 18 balls) and Venkatesh Iyer (24 off 13 balls) guided India home with more than an over to spare in the opening T20I against the West Indies at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. Rohit Sharma (40) got his team off to a fast start before being bowled by Roston Chase. With the wickets of Virat Kohli (17), Ishan Kishan (35) and Rishabh Pant (8), the West Indies pushed India back, but their total was too low to create a serious challenge.On his international debut, Ravi Bishnoi took the wickets of Roston Chase and Rovman Powell to finish with figures of 2/17 as India reduced West Indies to 157/7 in 20 overs. After Rohit Sharma elected to bowl after winning the toss, Bhuvneshwar Kumar gave India the perfect start by picking up a wicket in the first over. India's second wicket was taken by Yuzvendra Chahal. Bishnoi caught Nicholas Pooran at the boundary, but stepped on the rope, allowing the southpaw to escape. Pooran took advantage of the situation and slammed a useful half-century. Captain Kieron Pollard struck some big shots in the death overs to enable the Windies reach a total of more than 150 runs.
