Question 1 of 5:
Who smashed an unbeaten 64, as India sealed the recent ODI series against West Indies with a narrow 2 wicket win?
The West Indies displayed a great batting show in the second ODI against India at the Queen’s Oval on Sunday. A scintillating ton from Shai Hope on his 100th appearance and captain Nicholas Pooran’s impactful 74-run knock helped the hosts set a challenging 312-run target. But all their efforts were overshadowed by Axar Patel’s maiden 50-plus score as he finished the chase for India in style. The tourists won the face-off by 2 wickets and took an unassailable 2-0 series lead.
With 6 needed off the last three balls, Axar smashed a six, off Kyle Mayer’s full toss delivery, over long-off to seal the series. With this gigantic hit, the all-rounder shattered former India captain MS Dhoni’s 17-year-old record. Axar, who scored his maiden ODI fifty of just 27 deliveries, returned unbeaten on 64 off 35 balls. He smashed 5 sixes, and 3 boundaries, during his stay at the crease which is now the most by an India batter at No.7 or lower in a successful ODI chase.
