Jadeja finishes it off. India claim the bonus point. This is full and straight, Roach plays across the line, is hit on the pad, and then on the stumps

Quotes from the presentation
"We got to give the credit to the Indian batters," says Dwayne Bravo. "Especially Virat. We could have done a lot better with our chase. We have got to regroup for the match against Sri Lanka. We can't afford to make the same mistakes again. We accept our defeat today, but we are still in a strong position, and come Sunday we have to give a better account of ourselves. Coming back after the rain, the conditions helped seam bowling. And they bowled really well."
"More than that, I am happy we won with a bonus point," says Virat Kohli, who is also the Man of the Match. "We got a good start. It's a bit of a tricky situation if you go in after a good start. You don;t know whether to play yourself in or go after the bowlers. To get a hundred in my second game as captain, I am pretty happy. I was getting good starts, but hitting that one shot straight to the fielder, so I was waiting for this big innings."
Except for that ninth-wicket partnership that India should have ended much earlier, this is a perfect game for India. Update on Jadaina situation first: more heated argument between Raina and Jadeja. Jadeja walks away from Raina, but eventually they walk off the field together. Just to remind you, Raina had missed that catch off Jadeja's bowling, and then when Jadeja eventually got the wicket, the two seemed to be arguing
Anyway, it shouldn't take the sheen off a superb performance by India otherwise. Right from the opening stand between Dhawan and Sharma, and the finish by Kohli who brought up his 14th ODI century. With the ball, Bhuvneshwar showed why it was a mistake to drop him in the previous match. And once the rain spiced up the pitch, the Indian seamers were nigh unplayable. India now have five points, which is level with Sri Lanka, but Sri Lanka's NRR is better. West Indies still at the top. Hang on for quotes from the presentation

Jadeja to Roach, OUT
Kemar Roach b Jadeja 34 (33b 3x4 2x6 49m) SR: 103.03
A heated argument between Jadeja aand Raina during the break. Does it have anything to do with that catch dropped earlier? In comes Tino Best

Jadeja to Narine, OUT
finally India get a wicket. Finally Narine falls. He makes room, tries to go over cover, but he doesn't have that much space to swing, and finds long-off

slower ball again, and Narine is solid in defence
"Forget Ashwin, Can someone tell Umesh to bowl over the wicket ?" Mr J, ha ha

Jadeja to Narine, SIX runs
and now Narine rubs it in by jumping down the wicket and lofting him for a six over long-on
31.5

Jadeja to Narine, 2 runs
Narine is missed this time. He is down the wicket, gets too much under the ball, and lofts it towards long-on. Bhuvneshwar and Raina are both calling for it but neither of them is listening, and at the last moment they both pull out of it. Both have misjudged it
