2nd T20I: Tilak Varma's Maiden Fifty Helps India Reach 152/7 After Electing To Bat
Tilak Varma (51) struck his maiden T20I half-century in only his second innings as India struggled to a modest 152/7 against West Indies in the 2nd T20I here on Sunday. Varma, who was India's leading scorer with 39 off 22 deliveries in the first T10I in Trinidad, came up with another gem of innings as he scored 51 off 41 deliveries after the visitors got off to a poor start, losing two wickets for 18 runs. Varma held the innings together, coming in at 76/4 and responding with a superb knock in what is only his second outing in T20I cricket. He started cautiously and then played some glorious shots, helping India reach the three-figure mark. His 51 came off 41 deliveries and were studded with five fours and a six.
Romario Shepherd (2-28), Alzarri Joseph (2-28) and Akeal Hosein (2-29) claimed a brace of wickets each as India struggled to cross the 150-run mark after skipper Hardik Pandya won the toss and elected to bat first.
