Key Questions Answered

West Indies secured a historic 6-wicket victory against India by successfully chasing down a massive target of 250 runs.

Shai Hope scored an unbeaten 102 runs off 45 balls, while Sherfane Rutherford added 84 runs off 37 balls to lead West Indies to victory.

India's total of 249 runs went in vain due to expensive bowling from spinners and pacers, dropped catches, and a heavy dew factor in the second innings that made bowling difficult.
