Team India extended their own record for most successive ODI series wins against a side in a bilateral series. India have posted their 13th successive ODI series win over West Indies, since 2006. Pakistan have the next beat record, winning 11 successive ODI series against Zimbabwe.
Team India thrashed West Indies by 200 runs in the third and final ODI in Tarouba, Trinidad on Tuesday. It was their 2nd biggest win over the Windies in ODI cricket after their 224-run win at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai in 2018.
An all-round show saw India decimate West Indies by 200 runs in the third and final ODI in Trinidad on Tuesday. The win also helped India close the series 2-1. A combined effort by Shubman Gill, Hardik Pandya, Ishan Kishan, and Sanju Samson helped India post 351/5 after being invited to bat first. West Indies were no match with the bat in response as Mukesh Kumar rattled the top order, who finished with clinical figures reading 3/30 in seven overs. Shardul Thakur also was among the wickets, picking four scalps and conceding 37 runs in the 6.3 overs he bowled. Kuldeep Yadav scalped two, while Jaydev Unadkat, who was playing his first ODI after a gap of almost 10 years, managed one wicket. Earlier, Gill scored 85(92) and stitched a solid 143-run partnership with fellow opener Ishan Kishan, who was dismissed for 77(64). He was part of another crucial 69-run stand with Sanju Samson in the middle overs, who departed right after completing his half-century. Hardik Pandya then closed the innings with a gusty 52-ball 70.
