India thump West Indies in dead rubber
India bowled out West Indies for a record low score and then beat them by nine wickets in the fifth and final one-day international yesterday to clinch the series 3-1. Chasing a modest 105 for victory in Thiruvananthapuram, the hosts romped home in 14.5 overs with opener Rohit Sharma, on 63 and captain Virat Kohli, on 33, remaining unconquered. West Indies 104 was their lowest ever one day total against India. The two sides now head to Kolkata for the first of three Twenty20 internationals on November 4.
