India beat West Indies by 4 wickets, enter quarter-finals in World Cup 2015



India beat West Indies by 4 wickets, enter quarter-finals

Chasing a modest target of 183, India's top-order struggled due to poor shot selection before skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni's composed unbeaten innings of 45 helped them reach the target in 39.1 overs and ensure their fourth consecutive win in the tournament. Indians began their chase with Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan taking guard against Taylor and Holder bowling in tandem. India lost their first wicket as a Dhawan who scored 9 runs, removed by
Taylor in the 5th over. Skipper Dhoni with Suresh Raina, took the score to 93/4 at the end of 20 overs. Raina tried hard, but he too perished soon, gotten rid of by Smith for 22. India lost their 5th wicket at the end of 25 overs and the score was 114. Ravindra Jadeja joined Dhoni in the middle but didn't last too long either, as he departed, deceived by Russell for 13 in the 30th over, taking the score to 135/6. Dhoni (45) and Ashwin (16) took the team home in 39.1 overs.
