Four of India's top five batsmen notched up half-centuries as the Hanuma Vihari-led team completed a comfortable seven-wicket victory to seal a 2-0 series win over the Windies. Earlier, Karnataka's Krishnappa Gowtham set up the chase for India as he ended up with figures of 7.5-3-17-5.
The Indian 'A' team ensured that they had the perfect end to their tour of the Caribbean, as they wrapped up their last match of the tour with a comfortable seven-wicket victory over the hosts. Mayank Agarwal top-scored for the visitors with 81, while Priyank Panchal, Abhimanyu Easwaran, and Anmolpreet Singh also chipped in with fifties as India 'A' chased down a hefty target of 278 within 80 overs.
Resuming Day 4 on 185-3, Easwaran (59*) and Anmolpreet (51*) made quick work of the target, as they knocked off the remaining 93 runs within the first 30 overs of the day. The victory also marks a very successful end to the tour of the Windies for the Indian 'A' side, winning the unofficial ODI series 4-1, and the Tests 2-0.
With 180 runs in 2 matches, Panchal ended as the top scorer for the visitors, while Shabaz Nadeem, who took a 10-wicket haul in the first match, ended as the highest wicket-taker with 10 wickets. Mohammad Siraj, who accounted for nine scalps from two matches,Ā ended as the second-highest wicket-taker for the Indians.
