IND vs WI: The fifth and final T20I of the series between India and West Indies at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium was abandoned due to persistent rain, forcing the competitive five-match series to end tied at 2-2.
After rain delayed the start and reduced the contest to a 9-overs-a-side shootout, West Indies won the toss and elected to bowl. India came out with ultra-aggressive intent, reaching a fiery 118/5 in 7.4 overs.
Ishan Kishan led the charge with a blistering 30 off just 10 balls (3 fours, 2 sixes), supported by skipper Shreyas Iyer’s 22. Down the order, Naman Dhir provided a late surge, remaining unbeaten on 24 off 6 balls with three maximums. For West Indies, Keemo Paul (2/34) and Shamar Springer (2/17) were the primary wicket-takers.
However, another heavy downpour interrupted play during the eighth over. With no further play possible, officials called off the match, leaving both teams to share the honours in an exciting series.
