Hope's 162 Leads Record West Indies Run Chase to Beat India in Third ODI

Hope’s 162 powered West Indies to a five-wicket win and their highest successful ODI chase, after India posted 351/7.

  • On Saturday, West Indies defeated India by 5 wickets in the third ODI at PCA International Cricket Stadium, with Captain Shai Hope anchoring the historic chase with an unbeaten 162 off 143 balls, including 17 fours and three sixes.
  • India's innings began poorly after electing to bat first, collapsing to 4/2 as Captain Shubman Gill scored 1 and Virat Kohli recorded a golden duck, before Rohit Sharma and Ruturaj Gaikwad steadied the innings with a crucial partnership.
  • KL Rahul's unbeaten 129 off 87 balls, featuring 10 fours and two sixes, powered India to 351/7, while Rohit Sharma's 92 off 85 balls made him the fourth opener in ODI history to complete 10,000 runs at age 39.
  • Amir Jangoo's 67 off 56 balls supported the chase before Hope forged a match-winning 62-run partnership off 29 balls with Gudakesh Motie, sealing West Indies' highest successful run-chase in ODI history.
  • India secured the series 2-1 despite the loss, though bowling under lights proved problematic as hosts struggled to pick wickets regularly, while Hope's back-to-back centuries position West Indies well for the ODI World Cup 2027.
