India vs West Indies, 2nd T20I, West Indies tour of India, 2019 - CommentaryIND vs WI, 2nd T20I, West Indies tour of India, 2019 - Commentary

Aryan Joshi: A very noticeable fact. Whenever Chahal doesn't perform well in a game, India loses. Others bowlers will need to step up in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah.

Tarun: This match confirms that India needs to strengthen their bowling and target more true all-rounders in the T20 version who are wicket taking bowlers also. You can't always expect batting to score big. 'For a start, getting Bumrah back will be a big help'

Yagyansh: Pooran is an amazing prospect for WI, not only for limited overs but also for Test Cricket, of course only after he matures. He holds his shape, is a great timer of the ball and if guided properly can be a Sehwag or a Davy or a Gayle.

Harsha Bhogle: I thought the chase would be more difficult. Yes, the ball was a bit moist, but can't let that take away from an excellent West Indies run chase

Yash: @Yagyansh The reason why England and Australia are so good in T20s is because they always have 6 proper bowling options, this is the only thing India lacks and now to increase batting depth we are further diluting our bowling

Yagyansh: @Sivaa - I think only 2 of them will make it to the squad and only one will be in the playing XI. Won't make much sense to play both of them. At the end its the primary skill that will make you win matches. A single all-rounder is good enough for the balance of the team.

Sivaa: Hardik Pandya, Vijay Shankar and Shivam Dube, all three can bat and bowl pace. All of them are different, offer different things. India should seriously consider picking two of them in playing XI for WCT20 next year.

Harsha Bhogle: Afraid the fielders have to support the bowlers better. India have, unusually, dropped too many lately

Sameer: You feel for Bhuvi. And as Kartik mentioned on comms, he doesn't seem to be the kind of guy who remonstrates his teammates. Which makes you feel for him even more.

Sai: The more I loved from Dube is his flexibility. When Rohit selected him as a complete bowler, he impressed. And today, when Kohli tried him as a complete batsmen, by sending him at the crucial no.3, he again impressed.

Harsha Bhogle: Only Rishabh Pant has managed to get off to a good start today. Not the easiest surface. These might be enough unless there is a lot more dew

keshari rahul: Sundar should have been sent ahead of Jadeja after his form for Tamil Nadu in the SMA trophy

Harsha Bhogle: Like Hayden Walsh. And brilliant in the field.

Vivek: Any dew at the moment? 'Not much, but it could be a factor later on'

Harsha Bhogle: This might not be an easy surface to chase on.

Harsha Bhogle: Sometimes it needs one hit to get going. Holder gave Dube a short one and he has teed off since. Was 12(14), then 35 off the next 10.

Abheesht: From what I've seen so far of Shivam Dube, he looks like a busy kind of player. Eager to take singles and doubles. Looks confident from the outset.

Arpit: Shivam Dube has done nothing in the past few matches apart from bowling his 4 overs in the final t20 vs SA. This is his opportunity.

Bhargav: Although Pant is a talented/gifted cricketer, he has received 'way' more opportunities than others, with hardly any performances to justify them. Tough to understand Ambati Rayudu being left out of WC squad despite his 'limited' failures. If it is nurturing a 'raw talent', why not Samson?

Manav Singhal: I think it would be good to put India under a bit of pressure, especially with the World T20 coming up. They need to step out of their comfort zone of chasing totals.

Shyam: @Rohan Saini - But last time West Indies played here they were all out for 104 in an ODI match, so I don't expect them to chase big.

Harsh Khemka: In the previous matches at this venue, it has been observed that swing is available with the new ball, so it would be interesting to see how Chahar and Bhuvi utilize it.

Tejas Sharma: I think India is the best chasing side in the world, but lack of experienced bowlers may cost them in death overs while defending totals.
