Indians were unable to gauge the pace and bounce of the Warner Park track, as McCoy mixed his variations well during a career-best spell
West Indies beat India by five wickets in the second T20I on Monday.
Opting to bowl, Obed McCoy returned with a career-best six-wicket haul as West Indies dismissed India for 138.
Hardik Pandya was the top scorer with a run-a-ball 31, while Rishabh Pant (24) and Ravindra Jadeja (27) also got starts but couldn’t capitalise in a match that was pushed back by three hours due to delay in arrival of team kits.
While McCoy was the most successful bowler with figures of 4-1-17-6, Alzarri Joseph (1/29), Akeal Hosein (1/22) and Jason Holder (1/23) were the other wicket-takers.
In reply, WI overhauled the target with four balls to spare, riding on Brandon King’s 68 and an unbeaten 19-ball 31 off Devon Thomas.
Brief scores:
India: 138 all out in 19.3 overs (Hardik Pandya 31; Obed McCoy 6/17)
