Dr DY Patil Sports Academy: A brilliant all-round performance by skipper Hayley Matthews, who hammered an unbeaten 85 after claiming (2-36) as West Indies Women handed the Indian Women a nine-wicket thrashing with 26 balls remaining in the second Women's T20I of the three-match series at the Dr. D.Y. Patil Sports Academy here on Tuesday. With this, the West Indies Women levelled the series 1-1 as India had won the first match here on Sunday.

Hayley Matthews blazed 17 fours as she struck a 47-ball 85 not out as the West Indies chased the target with ease as they reached 160/1 in 15.4 overs after the visitors rode on a fine bowling performance by Chinelle Henry (2-37), Deandra Dottin (2-14), Hayley Matthews (2-36) and Afy Fletcher (2-28) to restrict the hosts to 159/9. Opener Smriti Mandhana continued her good work as she scored a half-century but in the end that proved insufficient for India Women after the visitors elected to field first on winning the toss.

Chasing the target of 160, West Indies women got off to a good start as Hayley and Qiana Joseph raised 66 runs for the opening wicket in just seven overs. Qiana scored 38 off 28 balls, hitting six fours and two sixes before she was caught behind by Richa Ghosh off Saima Thakor.
