Countdown to INDIA Vs West Indies match 2 days to go

Lets have look on India's last five wins over WI

1. A perfect Game :

OCT 17, 2014 ( DHARAMSALA )

India 330-6 in 50 overs (Virat Kohli 127, Suresh Raina 71, Ajinkya Rahane 68) beat West Indies 271 in 48.1 overs (Malon Samules 112, Bhuvneshwar 2-25, Axar 2-26) by 59 runs.

Led by a superb top-order show, India posted a massive total on the board, maintaining a good run rate throughout and had partnerships right till the end.  Then, the new-ball bowlers struck early blows and that proved decisive despite a fight back by Samuels and Russell.

2. Escape to Victory :

OCT 11, 2014(Delhi)

India 263-7 in 50 overs (Kohli 62, Raina 62, Dhoni 51*, Jerome Taylor 3-54) beat West Indies 215 in 46.3 overs (Dwayne Smith 97, Kieron Pollard 40; Md Shami 2-36, Ravindra Jadeja 3-44) by 48 runs.

It was a case of the opposition gifting the game rather than India winning it. West Indies were under control for most of the match while chasing, till they goofed up during the Powerplay.  They lost two set batsmen when they needed just a run a ball.  Then, Shami and Jadeja ran through the middle and lower order.

Shikhar's Heroic :

Nov 27, 2013(Kanpur)

West Indies 263-5 in 50 overs(Samules 71, Kieran Powell 70, Darren Bravo 51; R Ashwin 2-45) lost to India 266-5 in 46.1 overs(Shikhar Dhawan 119, Yuvraj Singh 55).

A perfect game for India where the did most of the things right.  On a good batting surface, the restricted the opposition to a manageable score.  The pacers didn't take early wickets but didn't go for runs and the spinners suffocated the middle order.  Despite losing two early wickets, India chased down the target with ease as Dhawan anchored the innings with brilliant ton.

Spinners spin the match :

Nov 12, 2013(Kochi)

West Indies 211 in 48.5 overs(Darren Bravo 59; Jadeja 3-37, Raina 3-34) lost to India 212-4 in 35.2 overs (Virat Kohli 86, Rohit Sharma 72) by 6 wickets.

Indian spinners pulled it back after some wayard spells from the fast bowlers. West Indies struggled to get going against the slower bowlers and fell way short of a competitive total.  With a sensible second-wicket stand, India chased down the target with ease.

Kohli Dhamaka :

JULY 5, 2013(Port of Spain)

India 311-7 in 50 overs (Virat 102, Shikhar Dhawan 69, Rohit Sharma 46; Tino Best 2-51) beat West Indies (Revised target: 274 in 39 overs) 171 in 34 overs (Jonathan Charles 45; Bhuvneshwar 3-29, Umesh Yadav 3-32) by 102 runs(D/L method)

India top order did a decent job after being put in bowler friendly conditions and despite the middle-order collapse, India managed to cross the 300-run mark, thanks largely to Kohli's responsible hundred.  Indian pacers utilized the conditions better than their west Indian counterparts and the hosts were never in the game while chasing.
