India beat West Indies by 2 wickets in the second ODI to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. The Indian team, who came to play in the absence of star players, showed a wonderful game in both the matches. Like in the first ODI, in the second also the winner of the match was declared in the last over. After winning the toss and electing to bat in the second ODI, West Indies posted a massive total of 311 for six, thanks to a brilliant century from opener Shai Hope (115 runs) and a half-century by captain Nicholas Pooran (74 runs) for six sixes.
Chasing this target, the Indian team got off to a slow start. The team had scored 42 runs on a slow pitch for 10 overs without losing a wicket. India lost the wicket of captain Shikhar Dhawan (13) in the 11th over after a rain interruption. The team lost the first wicket for 48 runs. After this, Shubman Gill and Suryakumar were also dismissed soon after, which put the team under pressure.
But after half-centuries from Shreyas Iyer (63 runs) and Sanju Samson (54 runs) and a 99-run partnership for the fourth wicket between the two, Patel eventually led the team to victory. Patel's six made the team 312 for eight in 49.4 overs to win the series. He also took one wicket for 40 runs.
In the last over, India needed 8 runs to win. In the 49th over, India had lost the wicket of Avesh Khan on the last ball, after which Mohammad Siraj came to the crease to support Axar Patel. No run scored on the first ball of the over. After which Patel played the second ball towards deep mid-wicket and tried to steal two runs, but he got only one run. After this, Siraj was on strike, his mind was to hit a six, but there was a strict instruction from the coach that Patel had to strike by taking only one run, and because of this Siraj did not try to hit a six and a run on the third ball Took Patel to strike. Axar Patel hit a six off the fourth ball to give India victory.
Recalling that moment after the match, Siraj revealed in a conversation with BCCI.tv that seeing the way Axar used to talk about scoring the target and the way he was ready to finish it There was enthusiasm in me too. But he did nothing that landed the team in trouble.
He said, "Looking at the letter, it felt like he was talking, like he was pumped, felt different. I was also feeling that I will also hit a six. But it was wise to take my single and so was my permission."
