What a match! Elation for the India players and supporters and devastation for the West Indies.
India win by 5 wickets with 4 balls left 199-5 to 195-4.
Phenomenal 97* from Samson - easy player of the match winner.

Last over coming up. Six balls to determine who moves on to the Semifinals to keep their title hopes alive.
India need 7 runs to take it. West Indies need a lot of dot balls. Slow over rate penalty won't help here.

Just two overs left and India are sitting in the driver's seat at 179-4 needing 17 runs off 12 balls.
All to play for still and this could come down to the final delivery.
As a (pseudo)neutral, this is glorious.

India reach 100 after 10.3 overs. Still not on par to take this match. Require a further 96 runs on 57 deliveries at 10.11 runs per over. On track for just 181 at the moment.

Jospeh into bowl and on his second delivery takes Suryakamar's wicket with a great catch from Rutherford.
India at 99-3 now.

Halfway there. 10 overs complete and India area at 98-2 at 9.8 runs per over.
Hard to create a tighter margin as they require 98 more runs at 9.8 runs per over. Hats off to Samson for his 50 so far.

End of Power Play and India are sitting at 53-2 and 8.83 rpo.
Not looking good for the 196 chase. They need 143 runs on 84 balls at a 10.21 run rate.
Currently on track for 168.

West Indies finish with a decent 195-4 and setup a pretty interesting chase of 196 at 9.8 runs per over. India are more than capable of matching this so we should have a fantastic second innings.

That 6 was just pure timing. And this over has brought the Windies right back in it. #WINvIND #CricketWorldCup #T20
West Indies currently on track for 167.

Whole house has coffee and breakfast so now we can finally get down to the business of watching #WINvIND. This is such a great match-up to end the Super 8s with.
I'll be honest, I'm pulling for the West Indies to win but will be happy with either result.
