IND vs WI 2022 We ticked almost every box - R Sridhar reviews Team India s performance in West Indies ODIs

India completed a 3-0 ODI series win over West Indies on July 27. Former India fielding coach R Sridhar has stated that the Indian side performed admirably in the recently concluded three-match ODI series against West Indies. Speaking on the channel (cricket.com/tv), he pointed out how India ticked almost every box in both the batting and bowling departments during the 50-over rubber. He stated that openers and Shubman Gill were impressive with the bat in the series. The 52-year-old highlighted how the likes of and Sanju Samson also made a significant impact against the hosts. He also lauded Mohammed Siraj and Yuzvendra Chahal for stepping up in the absence of several senior bowlers. He stated: "For me, Shubman Gill coming in and being consistent over a couple of games, Shikhar Dhawan doing Shikhar Dhawan things, Mohammed Siraj filling in for Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Shami and bowling that brilliant 50th over in the 1st game and even giving those two important breakthroughs for India in the last game." He added: "A big hundred is just around the corner for Shreyas Iyer. Sanju Samson batted pretty well in the second game and was pretty safe behind the stumps. We ticked almost every box. Yuzvendra Chahal, needless to say, has been India's No.1 match-winner with the ball in white-ball cricket." Under the leadership of Shikhar Dhawan, the Men in Blue completed a stunning 3-0 clean sweep over the West Indies. While the first two contests had thrilling finishes, the visitors secured a rather comfortable 119-run victory in the rain-hit third ODI. 3-0
