BCCI President Sourav Ganguly lauded India’s stellar show against the West Indies on Wednesday night the Wankhede Stadium. Fearless knocks form KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma and skipper Virat Kohli helped the men-in-blue winning the decider by 67 runs to clinch the three-match series 2-1.

Ganguly was so delighted by the world-class performance exhibited by the Indian players that he took to Twitter and expressed himself saying, “Not many expected India to lose a series ... win was not a surprise... what will stand out is the fearless batting which all will see in T20 now... play without fear... no one plays for his place but plays to win...well done India.”

Here’s the post:

KL Rahul top-scored with a devastating 56-ball 91 and shared a 135-run opening stand with Rohit Sharma (71) as India cruised to victory and won the series 2-1, riding on their imposing total of 240/3. Skipper Virat Kohli too joined the party with an unbeaten 70 that came off just 29 balls.

In reply, the West Indies could manage only 173/8 despite skipper Pollard's 39-ball 68.

India are now scheduled to play a three-match ODI series against West Indies beginning Sunday in Chennai. After that, they will play three T20Is against Sri Lanka in early January next year.
