A century from India skipper Virat Kohli followed by a four-wicket haul from Bhuvneshwar Kumar saw the visitors beat West Indies by 59 runs at Port of Spain on Sunday (August 11) to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match ODI series.

Chasing a revised target of 270 after rain interrupted proceedings and led to the second innings being reduced to a 46 over affair, West Indies only managed 210 before being bundled out.

After failing to convert five 50-plus scores into a hundred at the World Cup, Kohli ended his relative drought with 120 off 125 balls. During his chanceless knock, he surpassed Sourav Ganguly's tally of 11,363 ODI runs for India. Among Indians, only Sachin Tendulkar (18,426) now has more ODI runs than Kohli's 11,406.

Chris Gayle became the leading ODI run-scorer from the West Indies, going past Brian Lara's tally of 10,405 runs (those scored for ICC combined teams included)
