Bowlers set the tone for a possible victory in historic 1000th ODI for India
Indian spin duo Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar ran through a listless West Indies line-up to bundle them out for a meagre 176 in the first ODI here on Sunday which also happens to be country's 1000th game in this format.
Chahal (4/49 in 9.5 overs) and Sundar (3/30 in 9 overs) wreaked havoc on slow track as the West Indies batters made a beeline to the pavilion, save Jason Holder (57; 4x6) and Fabian Allen (29), whose 78-run stand for the eighth-wicket helped the team go past the 160-run mark.
Put into bat, West Indies lost opener Shai Hope (8; 2x4) cheaply after he was castled by Mohammed Siraj (1/26) in the third over as the visitors lost their first wicket for 13.
