India’s bowlers set the tone early on a gloomy, swinging pitch. Debutant Noel David and Abraham Kuruvilla impressed with three wickets each, while Javagal Srinath struck immediately by removing Brian Lara on the very first ball of the innings. West Indies struggled throughout and posted their lowest ODI total against India. India’s fielding was equally sharp, with the stand-in wicketkeeper taking two brilliant catches and a sharp stumping to support the bowling effort. In reply, Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly made light work of the chase, comfortably reaching the revised target with plenty of overs to spare despite interruptions from rain. 🏏 Match Highlights: Srinath dismisses Brian Lara first ball Kuruvilla 3 wickets, Noel David 3 wickets (debut impact) West Indies lowest ODI total vs India Brilliant wicketkeeping (2 catches + stumping) Tendulkar & Ganguly easy chase under DLS-style target India’s first Caribbean win since 1982–83 📍 Result: India won by 10 wickets (revised target 113 in 40 overs) 🏟️ Port of Spain 📅 April 27, 1997 #IndiaVsWestIndies #SachinTendulkar #SouravGanguly #Kuruvilla #WestIndiesCricket #CricketHighlights #ODI #IndianCricket #VintageCricket #CricketArchive #Lara #IndiaWin
