West Indies mounted a commanding batting display in the fourth T20 international, racing to a hundred runs in just 7.4 overs as their batsmen found the Indian bowling attack vulnerable. At one stage, the Caribbean side appeared destined for a total exceeding 250 runs, putting India firmly under pressure.
However, the momentum shifted dramatically in India's favour following a crucial fielding lapse. A mistake by Tilak Varma in the field proved to be the turning point, contributing directly to a change in the match's trajectory. The miscue proved costly for West Indies' scoring ambitions.
Prince Yadav capitalised on India's improved position with intelligent bowling as the visitors staged a determined comeback. His shrewd execution in the latter overs helped restrict West Indies' final total, dramatically altering the complexion of the contest.
Despite a strong opening partnership that suggested a West Indies victory, Shai Hope fell narrowly short of completing a century. The captain's late dismissal underscored the impact of India's fightback, which prevented the opposition from converting their strong position into a match-winning total.
