India vs West Indies: Mishra destroys WI in 3rd ODI cricket match

India vs West Indies 3rd ODI cricket match seems to be poised for happy ending for India. Amit Mishra has destroyed WI batting in 3rd ODI cricket match

Port of Spain: Amit Mishra seems to have become a monster for West Indies cricket team. In the last match he scalped four wickets. The match is still not midway, but he has already scalped two wickets by breaking very important partnerships.

At one time the West Indies cricket team looked set for a big total as they were playing at 64 for the loss of just one wicket. Many had forgot as to when they had lost the first wicket. Munaf Patel had taken the first wicket of Edwards in his very first over. But then he gave away too many runs. He has bowled just six overs but has given away 39 runs.

But then Harbhajan got a breakthrough when one of his ball prompted a run out of Sarwan who was looking well set and playing at 28 runs.

After the breaking of the partnership Amit Mishra managed two quick wickets of Samuels and Hyatt.

Earlier Indian stand in captain Suresh Raina won the toss- second in a row- and invited West Indies cricket team to bat. The host have already lost two matches this way and Raina cannot want to experiment by batting first.

Meanwhile Simmons too has gone after scoring 45 runs. A report said, “The sad story gets sadder. Simmons pushed forward at a loopy legbreak, dipping on the batsman and pitching around middle and off. Simmons couldn't cover for the turn and the ball spun away, taking the edge towards Kohli at first slip”.

Mishra who has bowled seven overs has so far taken 3 wickets and given away just 18 runs. West Indies are struggling at 78 for 5 after 22.3 overs.
