India crushed West Indies registering an emphatic win by 6 wickets in the T20I series opener. Ravi Bishnoi had a dream debut in international cricket as he won Man of the Match for bowling an exceptional bowling spell.
He paved difficulties for West Indies throughout the game in 1st T20I. He was spinning the ball so well that even the umpire also misjudged one of the deliveries and gave it a wide ball to what looked like a legal delivery. And, Rohit Sharma didn’t look very much impressed with the umpire over that decision.
