That was the shot of the match and West Indies realised there was no way back for them. He added 86 runs with Shreyas Iyer off just 59 balls to take the match away from West Indies.

But Shreyas Iyer once again failed to make any mark in the much. He played a sluggish 24-run knock off 27 deliveries with just two boundaries.
