India beat West Indies in 3rd ODI to take 2-1 lead in the 4 ODI series

India 159 for 4 (Karthik 47, Dhoni 46*, Gambhir 44) beat West Indies 185 for 7 (Sarwan 62, Nehra 3-21) by six wickets (D/L method)

India leads the series 2-1 now thanks to rain converting the ODI into a 20 20 match for India reducing the target to 159 in 22 overs. Cannot make a mind who deserves credit for the win ? was it Dhoni’s calculative innings of 46 in 34 balls OR the Rains with three major stoppages in the West Indies innings who went to score 186 in the curtailed 27 overs at a run rate of 6.88.

Ramnaresh Sarawan was the highest scorer for WI with 62 runs after Gayle failed at the top, who was lopped by MS Dhoni of Ashish Nehra who turned out to be the best bowler for India. Both the openers Dinesh Karthik and Gautam Gambhir gave a brisk start in the beginning with Karthik scoring a brilliant 47 runs and then Dhoni settled the game with a clinical 46 runs; the highlight of his inning was a responsible batting display and the six he hit in the last over to give India the much needed victory.

An interesting series is on the plate with West Indies trying to draw the series and India looking for a series win.
