10. Simmons and Andre Russell take WI home
It seemed as if Simmons at ice running through his veins tonight, as despite the fall of Charles’ wicket and the pressure of the mounting run-rate, he kept his cool and carved out crucial boundaries almost every over.
20 runs were needed off 2 overs in the end, and after three good balls, Jadeja, who was bowling the penultimate over, conceded a four and a six to bring the equation down to 8 off the last over.
Dhoni gave the ball to Kohli yet again in a hope that he could dish out some magic again, but it was not to be.
Russell smashed a four off the 3rd ball and a six off the 4th ball of the over to seal the deal for West Indies.
It was a heartbreak for India, as they were unbale to win the cup after making to the final four for the second consecutive time. However, now it is certain that either the West Indies or England would lift the ICC World T20 trophy for the second time.
