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

Virat Kohli collects the trophy and walks up to his team-mates, who are ready to pose for the group photograph. Another trophy in the ever-expanding cabinet for India. Lots of positives for them in this series, none bigger than Shreyas Iyer establishing his spot in the team. West Indies have lots of catching up to do, their woes have multiplied post the World Cup and hopefully, they come back stronger. That caps off the limited-overs edition of this tour and now onto the Tests which start from August 22nd (Thursday). Until next time, it's a goodbye from us down here. Cheerio!

Virat Kohli, winning captain, player of the match and player of the series: I didn't want to disappoint you (Ian Bishop) further, you asked about the conversion rate (*laughs*). Jokes apart, last few matches, I presented a challenge to myself. The way he (Shreyas Iyer) batted out there, he took a lot of pressure off me. His knock was the game-changer. We want to have people take responsibility at different batting positions. But he certainly presented a strong case for himself. He completely played in full control and was putting pressure on the bowlers. Really good tempo, good really character. Thankfully, it's not a fracture (about his injury), just a split on the nail in the front. I think I should be fine for the first Test. We were a bit nervous when the rain break happened because of the fact they played so well in the first 10 overs. We felt that with DLS, the game can go out of our reach. The outfield got wet as well, we thought they could capitalise but the bowlers did a great job. We are feeling very confident. We've got a practice game which will allow the players to get into the Test rhythm. We're looking forward to two good Test matches.

Jason Holder, losing captain: We had to give ourselves a bit of time. I think the batters did a reasonable job. We were always in the game but credit to the Indian players. We let ourselves down in the recent past and we'll have to find ways. There's lot of work to be done. We've got to turn things around, it's matter of Test guys to put their hands up and turn the fortunes.

18:13 Local Time, 22:13 GMT, 03:43 IST: T20Is - Check. ODIs - Check. Mission whitewash accomplished. Handshakes all over. All eyes on Chris Gayle, who's walking off the field for one last time in ODIs and the West Indies' players have allowed him to take the limelight. Waves his arms to his fans and exchanges pleasantries with the rest of the Indian team as they arrive to greet him. Anyway, it turned to be a comprehensive win for the Men in Blue in the end. The Chase-master back at work again and guiding his team home with his sizzling ton. In pressure-cooker situation, you trust Kohli to come good. It was a stiff chase for the visitors as they were in a tricky spot. But Shreyas Iyer and Virat Kohli stitched a fabulous 120-run partnership for the fourth wicket and in fact, the Indian captain was forced to play second fiddle at some point as Iyer blazed away in a hurry reaching his fifty before falling with India needing 43 to win. However, Kohli batted deep, ensured that he stayed till the end and finished the job for his team. West Indies showed a lot of promise with the ball but were simply out-batted by the duo of Iyer and Kohli. Hang around for the presentations.

Brathwaite to Kohli, FOUR, there's the clincher. Drifting down leg, help-your-self with a boundary delivery and Kohli tucks in the gift and tucks it past short fine leg. India seal the series 2-0

Brathwaite to Kohli, FOUR, classy! Dug in short, Kohli with a vertical bat pull after rolling his wrists. Times it perfectly in the gap at deep mid-wicket

Brathwaite to Kedar Jadhav, 1 run, shorter outside off, crashed square past point

Carlos Brathwaite [3.0-0-29-0] is back into the attack

Aditya Saha: "Team India still need to win a match where they have to chase a big target with no contribution from top 3. That will give the middle-order a boost of confidence."

Holder to Kohli, 1 run, short of length on middle and leg, nudged gently to mid-wicket

Holder to Kohli, FOUR, brilliant. He's getting better and better. Pitches it up and Kohli creams it over extra cover

Jason Holder [3.0-0-29-0] is back into the attack

Harsha Bhogle: No 43. Counter ticks over. It's the Kohli production line. It's smooth and it's efficient. And it's delightfully predictable.
