That is it from this game then! The Windies, as expected have come out on top! Cricketing action continues on Monday as there are two more games coming your way. Ireland will be taking on Oman and Sri Lanka will be in action against UAE. The action for both the games begins at 1230 IST (0700 GMT). The build-up though begins earlier. Do join us. Until next time, goodbye and take care!
Jason Holder HAS BEEN AWARDED THE PLAYER OF THE GAME AWARD!
For USA, it was all about Gajanand Singh! He was the star and fought a long battle. The rest just were not upto the mark. They lost wickets when they needed partnerships and in the end they fell short. Maybe, if Gajanand Singh had gotten support the story could have well been different.
A good win for the Windies! Their bowlers really stepped up to the ocasion! Yes, they had quite a lot of runs to defend but the wicket was quite flat and they can be very pleased with how they have performed. All their bowlers did a decen job. A few picked up wickets whereas the rest were economical. A good how from West Indies. First to recover from 2 down for not a lot and then to bowl they way they did.
