WI VS IND - 3rd T20I, India tour of West Indies, 2019

Virat Kohli walks up to collect the trophy. A T20I series in the bag for India and they have hardly broken any sweat in these three games. Now, it's time for the official photograph for the Indian team as they assemble together with the silverware. Like the Indian captain said in his post-match interview, they've achieved what they wanted from this series. Navdeep Saini has been the biggest positive and Rishabh Pant today was fantastic. West Indies need to show a lot of skill and let's see what they can bring to the table in the ODIs which starts from Thursday (August 8). That winds up our coverage and until next time, it's a goodbye and goodnight from all of us here. See ya!

Virat Kohli, winning captain: Very clinical performance. We set out to get the results that we wanted and we've achieved that. Deepak stepped up today. I think all the bowlers were on the mark. This was a much better wicket that what we saw in Miami. Very similar to Bhuvi, his (Deepak Chahar) skill with the new ball is right up there. That's been his USP in the IPL as well. We are looking at him (Rishabh Pant) as the future. He's got a lot of skill and lot of talent. It is about giving him some space and not putting too much of pressure. He's come a long way since he's started. We want to be professional as a side. Looking forward to some fun in the ODIs and Tests as well.

Krunal Pandya, Man Of the Series: Quite satisfying and obviously won the series and to contribute in a winning cause is a good feeling. The focus is to improve every day and and I am not thinking much about anything, just trying to focus on getting better. He (Pollard) is like a brother to me and playing against him, he knows my strength and I know his strength. I guess whoever uses his brain (when asked who gets the better of who).

Carlos Brathwaite, losing captain: I think we didn't start off well with the bat. But kudos to Polly. As a team, I think we are still progressing. I thought 148 was a bit below par but the bowlers fought. Today, we finished well with the bat. We didn't play well as a unit. We are still trying to find out the perfect combination.

Deepak Chahar, Man of the Match - The atmosphere was pretty good, I tried to swing the ball as the weather was conducive for doing so, also tried to bowl around the full length area because of the moisture. The wicket was good and so was the weather. I assessed the conditions and I bowled more in-swingers than out-swingers. It was difficult to play against the ball coming into the batsman as compared to the one going away. I usually bowl with old balls in nets, that's how I prepare myself. When the ball is swinging, I don't use many variations. I was assessing the conditions on the first ball of every over.

14:59 Local Time, 18:59 GMT, 00:29 IST: Virat Kohli is already out near the sidelines to greet the players. A well-measured, well-calculated run-chase by India. And Pant has answered the critics about his temperament in some style. They were in a tricky position at 27/2 but Virat Kohli and Rishabh Pant paced their innings beautifully. Bided their time, played risk-free cricket for a while before stepping up the gas. They stitched a 106-run partnership for the third wicket and notched up their respective fifties before Virat threw it away towards the end. But Pant took it till the end and polished off the target with 5 balls to spare. Nothing much to write about West Indies' bowling who were really pinned to the mat by that spectacular partnership and they were left gasping for breath. Captain comments and other awards to be given away, so stick around for the presentations.

Brathwaite to Pant, SIX, Pant wraps it up in a glamorous way for India as they complete a clean-sweep. Brathwaite dishes out a freebie on middle, Pant keeps a solid base and lifts it with a straight bat over the bowler, launching it over the ropes

Carlos Brathwaite [2.0-0-19-0] is back into the attack

Right, we're heading to the final over.

Cottrell to Manish Pandey, no run, wide yorker just outside off, Pandey is beaten for pace and fails to squeeze it

Cottrell to Manish Pandey, no run, cramps Pandey with a leg-stump short ball. He swiveled back to pull and ends up dragging it awkwardly besides the pitch

Cottrell to Pant, 1 run, fuller length and outside off, Pant reaches out and drives it - yanking his bottom hand off the handle - to long-off

Cottrell to Manish Pandey, 1 run, backs away to leg and wrists it to long-on

Cottrell to Manish Pandey, no run, 140kph, full and pacy zeroing at the stumps. Pandey with a closed bat-face block
