Hyderabad, Oct. 14 -- Captain Shai Hope's unbeaten century and Keemo Paul's five-wicket haul powered West Indies to a 24-run victory over India in the fourth T20 International here on Wednesday, bringing the five-match series level at 2-2.
Hope smashed an unbeaten 102 off 50 balls to propel West Indies to a formidable 247 for three after India elected to bowl. Paul then returned figures of five for 41 to derail India's chase despite aggressive half-centuries from Sanju Samson and a late counterattack by Nitish Kumar Reddy.
The result sets up a series decider at Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy Stadium, with both teams having won two matches each.
Hope anchored the West Indies innings with a commanding display of power-hitting, striking four fours...
