IND vs WI, LIVE Score, 5th T20I: Rain Delays Toss in Bengaluru; Bhuvneshwar Kumar Eyes Comeback in Series Decider
Rain delayed the toss as the five-match series is tied 2-2, with the winner set to clinch the contest.
- On Saturday, October 17, 2026, the toss for the fifth and final T20I between India and the West Indies at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru was delayed due to persistent rain and dark clouds.
- With the five-match series level at 2-2, both teams are competing for the trophy in this deciding clash after a sequence of high-scoring encounters on flat pitches.
- Under ICC playing conditions, both teams must bat at least five overs for a result; the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method may determine the winner if rain interrupts after minimum overs are met.
- Drizzling continues at the stadium with covers currently on the pitch, preventing play from starting as officials monitor weather conditions to determine if the game can proceed.
- No reserve day exists for this bilateral encounter; India and South Africa shared their trophy after a rain-abandoned 2022 decider in Bengaluru, establishing precedent for potential trophy-sharing today.
