Kolkata, March 1 India were stunned twice early on in their pursuit of 196 as they reached 45/2 after 5 overs against the West Indies in their must-win T20 World Cup Super Eights match, here on Sunday.
Abhishek Sharma (10) was out after another disappointing innings, while Ishan Kishan (10) hit a six to deep square leg off Jason Holder.
Abhishek hit four each in the first two overs, sticking to his cautious approach, as India scored 12 runs in the first two overs.
It was in the third over when Sanju Samson provided the impetus, hitting two sixes and a four, but Abhishek fell on the final ball, skying one which was safely caught by Shimron Hetmyer off Akeal Hosein.
Samson (20) was at the crease with India captain Suryakumar Yadav (1).
Earlier, the West Indies scored 195 for four in their 20 overs.
