New Delhi: The Indian team has created history on the soil of the West Indies, with the Blue Brigade in Port of Spain waving the tricolour. India has also defeated West Indies in the third match and made a clean sweep in the 3-match series. India won the match by 119 runs by Duckworth-lewis rule. Dhawan, Chahal and Gill played well for India in the third ODI. India's victory margin in the first and second ODIs may have been small, but in the third ODI, Dhawan & Co. defeated the West Indies.

However, there was rain on this match, so the result was drawn with the help of the Duckworth-lewis rule. Let us know that this is team India's 12th consecutive ODI win in Port of Spain. They were last defeated by Sri Lanka in the 2007 ODI World Cup here. In the third ODI, under the Duckworth-Lewis rule, the West Indies got a target of scoring 257 runs in 35 overs. But the Caribbean team was bowled out for 137 in 26 overs. The Indian bowlers took advantage of the changed conditions after the rain, due to which the West Indies batting was completely shattered. None of the batsmen from the West Indies could score a half-century. The highest score of 42-42 was scored by captain Nicholas Pooran and Brendan King. At the same time, Chahal's spin from Team India's side showed its effect very well. Apart from him, Siraj and Shardul Thakur also bowled dangerously.

Yuzvendra Chahal bowled just 4 overs in this rain-affected match and took 4 wickets for 17 runs. Apart from him, Mohammed Siraj took 2 wickets for 14 runs in 3 overs. Shardul Thakur also hunted down 2 batsmen for 17 runs in 5 overs. Apart from these, Prasidh Krishna and Akshar Patel also got 1 wicket each. Earlier, the opening pair of Team India once again worked to give India a solid start. It was the second time that India's opening pair shared a century partnership in the series. Dhawan and Gill added 113 runs for the first wicket. Shikhar Dhawan returned to the pavilion after scoring 58 off 74 balls, which is his second half-century in this series.

At the same time, Shubman Gill also showed a great game and due to the rain interruption, he was just 2 runs away from his first ODI century. He scored an unbeaten knock of 98 off 98 balls. Due to rain, Team India batted only 36 overs, in which they scored 226 runs for the loss of 3 wickets. The rain kept on disrupting the Indian innings, so in the end, the Duckworth-Lewis rule was resorted to and the West Indies were given a target of 257 runs in 35 overs. For the first time, India also made a clean sweep in the ODI series played in the West Indies, which was possible under the captaincy of Shikhar Dhawan.
