Suryakumar Yadav and Venkatesh Iyer's 91-run partnership powered India to 184/5 in the first innings against West Indies in the 3rd T20I at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. 

After being asked to bat first, India's new opening pair - Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ishan Kishan - couldn't do much damage and only added 10 runs for the first wicket. Ishan looked good and added 53 runs with Shreyas Iyer for the second wicket. 

However, India lost both Ishan and Shreyas in quick succession to bring to new batters - Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar at the crease, who added 27 runs in 25 balls. Rohit had a rather off night as he only managed 7 runs in 15 balls. 

After that, it was all about Suryakumar and Venkatesh. The duo smacked 91 runs in the next 37 balls to give India a strong finish after poor middle overs. Both the batters hit cracking shots all around the park to help India reach 184/5. 

Suryakumar got out on the last ball after scoring 65 in 31 balls. Iyer remained not out at 35 off 19 balls. 

Brief Scorecard: 

India - 184/5
