A SUPERB unbeaten 86 from Rohit Sharma led India to a three-wicket win over the West Indies in Antigua on Saturday to secure the five-match one-day series for the tourists who now have an unassailable 3-0 lead.
Sharma led India's recovery from 92 for six as it chased down 226 at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. An 88-run partnership with Harbhajan Singh (41) put India back in contention and then Praveen Kumar (25 not out) saw it through to a comfortable victory with 22 balls to spare. It was a day for lower order contributions with the West Indies only managing to set a decent target thanks to an outstanding 92 not out from 84 balls by Andre Russell. His score is the highest by a No. 9 batsman in one-day internationals and included a 78-run partnership with wicketkeeper Carlton Baugh as the Caribbean side recovered from 85-6.
