The West Indies, on the other hand, they were not much worried about going into the second T20I. Visiting captain Kieron Pollard praised their batsmen but he asked for more “discipline” from his bowling side in the series.
“I think we had batted well. We have scored above 200 runs which more often than not you take that. But discipline in bowling let us down tonight,” Pollard said at the match press conference on Friday night.
“We gave 23 extras, 14 or 15 of those wide deliveries, so when you look at that, those were extra balls and extra overs. When you give a class team like India these many extra deliveries, you are destined for trouble.
“No balls are something we have to stress in terms of non-negotiable and we bowled a couple of them tonight. It’s something we need to look on.”
Shimron Hetmyer had top-scored for the West Indies with 56 runs off 41 balls, while Evin Lewis and Pollard contributed with 40 and 37 runs respectively.
The 3rd and final match of the T20I series will be played in Mumbai on Wednesday.
