West Indies Level T20I Series with 24-Run Win over India in HyderabadPreviousNext

In the fourth T20I in Hyderabad, West Indies defeated India by 24 runs to level the five-match series 2-2. Shai Hope scored an unbeaten 102 off 50 balls, while Keemo Paul took five wickets, restricting India to 223. Sanju Samson's 56 off 23 balls was a notable effort in India's chase, but the dismissal of Tilak Varma proved a turning point. India captain Shreyas Iyer highlighted bowling execution issues, and West Indies coach Darren Sammy emphasized the importance of winning powerplays. The series decider will be played in Bengaluru on October 17.
