India T20 Series Decider With West Indies Washed Out
At Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium, where play began an hour and 45 minutes behind schedule and the match was reduced to nine overs a side, India had reached 118-5 in 7.4 overs when the rain returned, forcing the umpires to call off play with not even a five-overs-a-side shootout possible.
The Chinnaswamy Stadium was hosting its first international fixture since the October 2024 Test match between India and New Zealand, and more than 20,000 expectant fans braved the inclement weather to partake of the entertainment.
Their patience was rewarded when India's batters went on the rampage after being put in by West Indies captain Shai Hope, with Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson and the impressive Naman Dhir leading the way.
India lashed eight fours and seven sixes in their limited batting stint, Kishan bringing up the 100th six of the series by swinging Romario Shepherd over long-leg and out of the stadium.
But then, the skies opened up again, emphatically washing away any prospect of a decisive outcome.
