West Indies made a cautious start but stayed afloat, reaching 35 without loss in five overs against India in the T20 World Cup Super Eights match on Sunday. Hope pushed for a single, but Roston Chase hesitated, leaving both batters close to the non-striker’s end. Chase responded by hitting Arshdeep straight down the ground for a boundary and then driving him through the covers for another four. He continued in the fifth over, fetching a Jasprit Bumrah ball from outside off stump and sending it for a six behind the wicket. India had another opening when Chase went high towards cover, but Abhishek Sharma failed to hold the catch, letting West Indies off again.
