West Indies skipper Nicholas Pooran said that though the 0-3 scoreline is "tough" on the team, the hosts are looking forward to the T20I series up next. Top bowling spells from spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and pacers Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur helped India crush West Indies by 119 runs (DLS method) in the rain-hit third and final ODI of the series here at the Queen's Park Oval on Thursday. "It was a tough one for us. We did a lot of right things in the first two games. I think we tried our best, the boys performed well. But there were a lot of games in a short span of time," said Pooran at the post-match presentation.
After facing a defeat against India in the second ODI, West Indies skipper Nicholas Pooran expressed his eagerness to win the next game. Half-centuries from Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson and Axar Patel helped Team India win the second ODI of the three-match series against West Indies by two wickets at Queens Park Oval stadium in Port of Spain on Sunday. "Definitely, last couple of overs we didn't hold our nerves. Last 6 overs, we lost the game. We felt a spinner was easier to hit. We just needed one wicket to seal the game but Axar played really well," said Pooran in a post-match presentation. "His (Hope's) 100th ODI, he was exceptional to get a hundred. We did an exceptional job with the batting group. We tried to compete really hard. We want to win really bad," he added.
Shikhar Dhawan praised his team's performance after India registered a two-wicket win over West Indies in the second ODI here on Sunday. Half-centuries from Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson and Axar Patel helped the visitors to a series-clinching win in the three-match series at the Queens Park Oval stadium, while chasing a mammoth 312 to win. "It was a great team performance. Boys didn't lose the self-belief, that is amazing. Iyer, Sanju, Axar everyone was amazing, Even Avesh came out in his debut game and scored those 11 important runs. Thanks to IPL, they perform on a huge stage. I felt that we bowled nicely," said Dhawan in a post-match presentation.
