India and West Indies denied thrilling finale as rain hits final T20
The final Twenty20 cricket match between India and West Indies ended early after rain forced play to stop. India had reached 118-5 after seven overs.
Rain brought an early end to the final Twenty20 (T20) cricket match between India and West Indies. T20 is the short format of the sport, in which each side faces a limited number of overs, or six-ball sets. Weather conditions meant the game could not be played to a conclusion, and the contest finished without the climax many had hoped for.
After seven overs, India had reached 118-5, meaning 118 runs for the loss of five wickets. Naman Dhir contributed to the total by hitting 24 runs off just six balls before play was halted.
The source report does not say what the final outcome of the match was or how it affected the overall result of the T20 series.
Interruptions caused by rain are a familiar part of cricket, as matches are played outdoors. On this occasion, the weather prevented the two teams from settling the contest on the field.
