Powell remains firm with his muscular half-century, giving the West Indies hope of winning the second T20 match against India.

Powell’s innings of 53* contains four fours and three sixes, and he continues to produce with only one over remaining for spectators and game viewers to see the game’s victor.

West Indies must still pursue the target with a necessary run rate of over 22 since they require 24 runs in the last over. Pooran was forced to return to the pavilion, and Pollard, along with the in-form batsman Powell, has to play a captain’s knock.
