India 209/4 in 18.4 Overs
Match Result - India won by 6 wickets
MOM - Virat Kohli for his 94*
Series Result - India lead the 3-Match T20I Series 1-0
Indian Captain Virat Kohli took the West Indies attack apart at Hyderabad on Friday to give India a 1-0 lead in the three-match T20I series.
A target of 208 runs became irrelevant with the skipper playing one of his best knocks. India won by six wickets with eight balls to spare and Virat Kohli remained unbeaten on 94 off 50 after getting off to a very slow start.
This is his highest T20I score, beating 90 not out against Australia at Adelaide in 2016
Hyderabad, a city in flames, got a treat from the skipper himself. But the foundation of the chase was laid by a brilliant KL Rahul, who scored 62 off 40.
KLRahul and Kohli added 100 runs for the second wicket after Rohit Sharma left in a hurry.
Earlier in the match, Indian bowlers and fielders lost the plot against the likes of Evin Lewis Shimron Hetmyer and Kieron Pollard. But, then they have Virat Kohli.
For the record, it's also the highest target chased down by India.
The previous high was 207 against Sri Lanka at Mohali in 2009
