Shai Hope set a West Indies record by reaching 102 not out as West Indies beat India by 24 runs Wednesday in the fourth cricket T20 to level the five-match series at 2-2.
Hope hit nine sixes and four fours in his third T20 century – the most for a West Indies batter – as the visitors piled up 247-3 in 20 overs. India had won the toss and opted to bowl.
It was the second-highest first innings total in T20s against India, trailing England’s 257-3 in Southampton this year.
In reply, Sanju Samson hit 56 off 23 balls but India was down to 130-5 and the chase never took off. It finished with 223 in 19.3 overs.
Keemo Paul picked 5-41 for his second five-wicket haul in T20s.
Bengaluru will host the deciding T20 on Saturday.
Put into bat, Hope gave West Indies a flying by putting on 52 off 26 balls with Jewel Andrew (21). Axar Patel trapped Andrew lbw in the fifth over but West Indies still got 79-1 in the powerplay.
Hope then added another 58 off 24 balls with Shimron Hetmyer, reaching 50 off 28 balls with the help of five sixes. He sped to a second hundred in the series with another four sixes.
Hope also became only the fifth batter to score multiple hundreds in a bilateral T20 series. Overall, it was his fourth hundred in seven innings across ODIs and T20s on this tour.
