Bowlers shine as India defend 237 to pocket one-day series 2-0Let's have more of things please. A 50-50 pitch with bounce and grass. A side losing the toss and struggling to score 237. The other trying to make the most of it to chase it down but falling short. The fielding captain using attacking and imaginative fields, manoeuvring his bowlers and protecting his part-timer.

Regular opener Shikhar Dhawan and Mayank Agarwal still not available, Pant scored 18 off 34 balls while batting alongside Rohit (5) in the second ODI against the West Indies. "I have been asked to do different things, so this was different. People will be happy seeing Rishabh open then, but yeah it is not permanent," Rohit said at the post match presentation.
