  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Stuart Binny hits the winning runs with a four and India have beaten West Indies in the final by six wickets! Binny sends the first ball of the 18th over to midwicket, takes a single and that is that. He has arguably been India's best player in this tournament with bat and ball and so it is quite fitting that he gets the winning runs. Binny finishes unbeaten on 15 off eight, Yuvraj on 13 off 11.

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: OUT! Now Yusuf Pathan goes

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Pathan was promoted ahead of Stuart Binny and well, not much of an impact from him. He misses his slog sweep against Nurse and is given LBW. Pathan reviews it but it only confirms the umpire's call.

  India 135/4 in 16 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 10:45 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: OUT! Rayudu's epic ends

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Lara brings on Sulieman Benn, decides to go for tactics instead of drama and avoids bringing back Best. Rayudu goes for a biggie fifth ball and is caught at long on. A brilliant innings comes to an end.

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Tempers flare! Heated chat there between Yuvraj and Best

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Well if there is anybody who thinks this is a match between two sets of players who don't really care about the outcome, think again. 12 runs off the 13th over by Best, he is tonked for back to back fours by Rayudu off the third and fourth balls. Best is known to be a feisty character of course (mind the windows and all that), Yuvraj doesn't take a step back in an argument and the two big boys exchanged some niceties with their noses very close to each other. Lara stepped in to separate the two, as did the umpires.

  India 114/2 in 13 overs, 35 to win off 42 balls

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 10:27 PM

  India 89/1 in 10 overs

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: GONE! Tendulkar goes

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Tendulkar pulls but hits it straight down the through of deep backward square leg. Tino Best gets the big wicket. And so that is the last we see of Sachin Tendulkar in this tournament, and by extension, with the bat for a while at least. Let's hope he takes the field for some reason or the other soon.

  India 67/1 in 7.5 overs

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Wow Sachin Tendulkar giving a glimpse of what it was like to see him in fully cry all those years back. he slashes the fourth ball from Taylor to deep backward point. Then he ramps the fifth over third man for a six. He is on 23 off 14 at the end of that over, Rayudu on 31 off 22.

  India 55/0 in 6 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 09:56 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Just 3 runs in the fifth…

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Singles off the first three balls by Rampaul and that's all that comes for India in that over. India need just 107 to win off 90 balls. They are going at 8.4 runs an over, 7.13 is their required rate. Tendulkar on 11 off eight, Rayudu on 31 off 22.

  India 42/0 in 5 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 09:48 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: FOUR! Some vintage Tendulkar there

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: The great man reaches out and opens the face of the bat slightly outside off stump, deliberately lets it run down third man for four. Rayudu had got a fourh through that same area second ball. Tendulkar on nine off six, Rayudu on 20 off 12.

  India 29/0 in 3 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 09:44 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: 10 runs in the second! Rayudu motoring along

  Four singles for Rayudu and Tendulkar between the second and fifth balls of that over from Taylor. Then Rayudu sends the last ball over third man for a six. He has moved to 14 off nine, Tendulkar on three off three at the other end.

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Now for the Indian chase...

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Ambati Rayudu facing up, Sachin Tendulkar at the other end. Ravi Rampaul to bowl the first over for the West Indies. The target is only 149 but Tendulkar and Rayudu would know the importance of getting off to a good start here.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 09:13 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: West Indies 148/7 in 20 overs

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: A wicket off the last ball makes it three in this match for Vinay Kumar. India need to chase down a target of 149 to win the trophy this season in the IML. Well this may be a game between former players but one has to wonder why Shahbaz Nadeem isn't an active cricketer any more. Also, it was good to see some tactical masterclass in the death overs from Sachin Tendulkar and Dhawal Kulkarni, who finishes with figures of 0/19 in 4 overs.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 09:10 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: GONE! Vinay gets his second

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: That wicket may have chopped around 15 runs off India's target. Simmons was swinging for the horizon, it is the last over after all, no point sticking around. He misses his swipe completely second ball and the stumps behind him are disturbed.

  Simmons b Vinay Kumar 57(41)

  West Indies 146/6 in 19.2 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:58 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Into the last four overs...

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Dhawal Kulkarni brought back for the 17th over now and Sachin Tendulkar sets up quite the funky field after the second ball. As many as three men protecting the leg side deep in the boundary and another standing in at long off. It meant that the way to go for boundaries was off side and Kulkarni forced the batters to go nowhere but the leg side. Simmons even moved all the way outside off stump fourth ball and Kulkarni just followed him to make it a dot.

  It may be a game between retired cricketers but what we saw there was some brilliant tactical acumen from Kulkarni and Tendulkar. The mind never gets tired, only the body does, after all.

  Just four runs in that over.

  West Indies 124/5 in 17 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:43 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: 100 up for the West Indies

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: But it has come in the 15th over! Simmon is having to dig in here, he has reached 31 in 24 balls, Ramdin at the other end on six runs off seven balls. Irfan Pathan brought back into the attack for the 15th over.

  West Indies 113/5 off 15 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:35 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: GONE! Six and gone for Walton

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Cleaned up! West Indies have lost half their side! Walton had just smashed Negi for a six off the fifth ball of the 12th over. He goes for another and misses it entirely.

  Walton b Negi 6(6)

  West Indies 85/5 in 12 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:26 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: OUT! Stuart Binny gets one

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Well this is the kind of wicket you get to see once in a while in a game between former players. Rampaul misses the line completely and is as plumb as they come. It was a good length delivery, pace off, Rampaul tries to work it leg side and simply misses it

  Rampaul lbw b Binny 2(5)

  West Indies 77/4 in 10.4 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:25 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: West Indies in trouble now

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Shahbaz Nadeem manages to finish that over as a wicket maiden! Six singles come off Irfan Pathan's over after that and now Stuart Binny has replaced Nadeem. The spinner really has changed the complexion of this game here.

  Simmons on 10 off eight, Ravi Rampaul, brought out solely to deal with Nadeem, on two off four.

  West Indies 72/3 in 10 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:14 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: GONE! Smith falls to Nadeem!

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Shahbaz Nadeem is the game for India. He absolutely outfoxes Smith here. Three dots and then he goes right through Smith. Wow, Nadeem is head and shoulders above everyone else in this Indian team at the moment.

  Smith b Nadeem 45(35)

  West Indies 67/3 in 8.4 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:13 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: 12 runs in the 8th over!

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Irfan Pathan brought in for the eighth over. Smith smashes the first ball right down the ground for four. Simmons comes on strike third ball and then he sends the fifth ball down fine leg for a four.

  Nadeem to continue for the next over, it's a game of chess at the moment between the two sides.

  West Indies 67/2 in 8 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:04 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: GONE! Nadeem gets his first

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Big appeal for LBW, it is given and Perkins doesn't review. Perkins just planted his foot forward but the ball darted in and took pads flush. As plumb as they come.

  Lendl Simmons walks out now and one gets the feeling that where this partnership goes could decide who wins the title today.

  Perkins lbw b Nadeem 6(7)

  West Indies 54/2 in 6.2 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 08:02 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: 18 runs in the 6th over!

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: What a hand Dwayne Smith has played here. Pawan Negi comes in for the last over of the powerplay, Smith smashes the second ball back down the ground for four. Then he hits the second past deep square leg for four. A single off the next ball and then Perkins sends the bal soaring over long off for a six. The last ball is a dot.

  Smith finishes the powerplay on 38 off 24 balls, Perkins on six off as many.

  West Indies 52/1 in 6 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 07:53 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: GONE! IT'S BRIAN LARA!

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Vinay Kumar roars with delight and why not? He has got the great man out early. It was a shortish delivery, seemed to have rushed Lara a bit. He cuts it straight into the hands of Pawan Negi at backward point.

  It's William Perkins who walks out at No.3, not Lendl Simmons. Wonder if the latter has any fitness issues.

  Lara c Negi b Vinay Kumar 6(6)

  West Indies 34/1 in 3.5 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 07:51 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: FOUR! Classic Brian Lara cover drive

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: The great man is slowly getting into the act and Kulkarni pitches up the last ball of the third over and Lara sends it to deep extra cover for four.

  West Indies 23/0 in 3 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 07:45 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Lara off the mark at last

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: The 10th ball of the match is the West Indies legend's first of the match. Smith starts the second over with a six over deep midwicket. Then he hits the second ball back to the bowler Vinay, who promptly proceeds to fire a throw at the striker's end. If that was on target, Smith was gone for all money. But it wasn't and Rayudu misjudges the ball's trajector. Tendulkar gives chase but of no use, the ball runs away for four overthrows. Smith runs a leg bye, Lara defends the first ball he faces and takes a single fifth ball.

  Smith on 15 off 10 balls at the end of that over, Lara on one off two.

  West Indies 17/0 in 2 overs

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 07:39 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Five runs in the first over

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Dhawal Kulkarni bowls the first over for India. Smith smashes the third ball towawrds the long-off area for four. He takes a single off the last ball and so remains on strike to face Vinay Kumar in the second over.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 07:31 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: The players walk out!

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: All right we are all set to get this final started. Brian Lara is opening for the West Indies along side Dwayne Smith. Yuvraj Singh has a little laugh with Lara as he walks out.

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: No changes for Sachin Tendulkar

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Tendulkar notes that it is a very good track and it doesn't really matter whether he wanted to bat or bowl first. India just want to restrict West Indies to as low a score as possible. Tendulkar further says that they are going in with the same team that beat Australia in the semi-finals.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 07:05 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Brian Lara wanting to put some scoreboard pressure on India

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Lara said that he is looking to put some scoreboard pressure on India. He wants a great show tonight with the crowd turning out for India. To play the way they played in the first round would be amazing, he says. He wants his side to play some good cricket and win the critical moments.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 06:53 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: TOSS ALERT!

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: How the legends celebrated Holi...

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Being back in the dressing room sometimes means being a bit of a menace towards your teammates and Sachin Tendulkar made the most of the chance he got to be just that during Holi. He shared a video of how he celebrated with his India Masters teammates on his social media handles.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 06:32 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Tino Best having the time of his life in the IML

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Tino Best has made just two appearances for the West Indies in this tournament but he was player of the match in the semi-final. "Just to see vintage Sachin Tendulkar's cover drive. Seeing Makhaya Ntini swing it back in, getting people out. Watching Jacques Kallis punch the ball off the back foot. Seeing Shane Watson score hundreds. It has been memorable, fantastic. It shows the old boys still have a little bit of fire left in their belly," said Best.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 06:24 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Will West Indies make it a set in the final?

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: West Indies lost to only Sri Lanka and India in this tournament. They avenged one of those two defeats in the semis, beating Sri Lanka by six runs in Raipur. Now if they are to complete the set, that's bad news indeed for India.

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: India avenge their only loss in the semi-final

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: West Indies' road to the final

However, they stumbled with consecutive losses to the Sri Lanka Masters and India Masters.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 05:03 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Sachin Tendulkar, Brian Lara and monster numbers

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: They say statistics don't really tell the whole story. But when it comes to these two players, they give a ridiculously good picture of the kind of careers they enjoyed. Lara played 131 Tests in which he scored 11,953 runs at an average of 52.88 with 34 centuries and 48 half-centuries. He still holds the record for the highest-ever score by a batter in a single Test innings - a cool 400 not out.

  Lara held the record for the highest run scorer of all time in test cricket as well but not for too long. Sachin Tendulkar burst past it and eventually retired with 15,291 runs in 200 Tests at an average of 53.78. He had 51 centuries and 68 half-centuries.

• Sun, 16 Mar 2025 04:42 PM

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Sachin Tendulkar's lesser known T20 numbers

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Apart from being arguably the greatest batter to have ever lived since Don Bradman, Sachin Tendulkar was also a pioneering early star name in the IPL as Mumbai Indians captain. MI's glory years really started only after he stepped down from that post but Tendulkar did have a T20 career of note, even though doesn't even hold a candle to the numbers he stacked up in the longer formats. He played just one T20I for India against South Africa in 2006 and was out for 10 runs. Overall, though, Tendulkar scored 2797 runs in 96 T20 matches at a strike rate of 121.08 and average of 32.90, with 16 fifties and one century.

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: India shred Australia to pieces

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: It was quite a different story for India though, who were on top throughout their semi-final against Australia. Yuvraj Singh's half-century, coupled with a sensational start provided by Tendulkar and an equally stunning finish by the Pathan brothers, took India to a score of 220/7. Shahbaz Nadeem took four wickets as Australia were all out for 126.

  IND-M vs WI-M LIVE Score: Denesh Ramdin scored 50 in 22 balls whule Lara made 41 in 33 as the West Indies scored 179/5 batting first against Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka's chase was largely anchored by Asela Gunaratne, who scored 66 in 42 balls. Isuru Udana and Dilruwan Perera both played useful hands towards the end and Gunaratne stayed until the end. It was too much for the latter to do though and the West Indies sealed a 6-run win last ball.
