India vs West Indies 3rd T20: 3 reasons why Windies lost the match

#1 Lack of wicket-takers in middle overs

There was always that uncertainty with respect to this bowling attack of Windies. A couple of debutants in the side, it was always going to be difficult for them to win games while defending. The likes of Keemo Paul and Oshane Thomas had delivered for windies in their opening spell in this series.

But this side lacked the skilful bowlers who could penetrate well in the middle overs to put pressure on the batting unit. They were toothless tonight as Dhawan-Pant duo milked them for runs and never let them have an impact. The likes of Khary Pierre and Kieron Pollard had no plan to unsettle the batsmen. There was no pressure created from any end and it gave the batsmen liberty to score freely and keep the scoreboard ticking. This is one of the major reasons why Windies lost today even after batting really well. Their bowlers let them down badly when their batting unit had done their job.
