The final target was set at 187 as India played the full 20 overs and made 186 at the loss of 5 wickets. The West Indies batting lineup looked motivated to go out on the pitch and chase the total as well. Nicholas Pooran and Rovman Powell almost completed the run chase as well as the former made 62 runs after which he got dismissed. However, Powell went for the win till the very end and scored two straight sixes in the last over which put the match in a very exciting position. In the end, Harshal Patel won the match for India in the end with a well-planned bowling display to dismiss any threats by the explosive batting display by Powell who ended up making 68 not out.
