IND vs WI, 2nd ODI: West Indies defeat India by six wickets to level series 1-1

Skipper Shai Hope led from the front with an unbeaten half-century as West Indies defeated India by six wickets in the second ODI, bringing the three-match series on an even keel, on July 29.

Put to bat first, the absence of skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli was evident as India's batting looked feeble.

Following a 90-run opening partnership between Ishan Kishan (55) and Shubman Gill (34), India lost five wickets for 23 runs before folding for 181 in 40.5 overs.

Stand-in skipper Hardik Pandya, Sanju Samson, Axar Patel all got out for single-digit scores.

In reply, Shai Hope (63*) found a fine ally in Keacy Carty (48*) as the duo put together a 91-run stand for the fourth wicket to steady their 182-run chase. The home side cruised to the target with 80 balls to spare.

The final ODI of the series is slated in Tarouba on August 1.
