India look to extend lead in series against Windies in Visakhapatnam today
Visakhapatnam, Oct 24 (IBNS): After registering a comprehensive win in the first One Day International (ODI) match, India are looking to extend their lead in the series against Windies on Wednesday.
The two teams will take on each other for the second sporting encounter here.
India on Tuesday announced an unchanged 12-member squad from the first ODI match.
In the first ODI, which was played in Guwahati on Sunday, India defeated Windies by eight wickets.
Chasing a target of 323, India never looked under pressure as Rohit Sharma and skipper Virat Kohli dominated the entire innings with their batting skills. Both the batsmen hit hundreds to ensure the men-in-blue's safe landing in the winning zone.
While Rohit remained unbeaten at 152, Kohli scored 140 before getting stumped.
After winning the Test series few days ago, India are now leading the five-match ODI series against Windies 1-0.
Indian squad for second ODI match: Virat Kohli (C), Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Ambati Rayudu, Rishabh Pant, MS Dhoni (WK), Ravindra Jadeja, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Umesh Yadav, Mohammad Shami, Khaleel Ahmed.
