Rain washes out India West Indies T20 decider in Bengaluru
India and West Indies drew their five-match Twenty20 International series after rain ended the deciding match at Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Saturday.
Match reduced to nine overs
Persistent showers delayed the start of play and forced officials to reduce the contest to nine overs per side. West Indies won the toss and elected to field first before rain returned shortly after India reached 118-5 in 7.4 overs.
Ishans Kishan scores quickly
India lost opener Abhishek Sharma early but Ishan Kishan hammered 30 runs off 10 balls to provide early impetus. Naman Dhir and Sanju Samson also contributed as the hosts chased a target that could not be completed.
Series ends on 2-2 draw
Officials ended the match because conditions failed to improve, leaving both teams with shared honours. The fixture was the first international game at Chinnaswamy Stadium since October 2024.
