VADODARA, India – West Indies snatched a surprise 2-1 lead in their five-match One-Day International series against India when they beat the World’s third-ranked side by three wickets here today.
Prolific teenaged opener Stafanie Taylor stroked 46 as West Indies, chasing 157 for victory, reached 159 for seven with four balls to spare at the Reliance Stadium.
Earlier, off-spinners Anisa Mohammed (2-20) and Stafanie Taylor (2-21) and left-arm pacer Shanel Daley (2-22), all took two wickets apiece as they once again restricted the hosts to a modest total.
Tail-ender Amita Sharma cracked a cameo 35 to top score for the Indians who had earlier gotten an ultra patient 33 from opener Poonam Raut. (CMC)
