IND vs WI 3rd ODI: Classy Team India defeat West Indies by 96 runs to complete clean sweep

Team India defeated West Indies in the third ODI by 96 runs and inflicted a clean sweep on the visiting team. Having lost the previous two games, West Indies began the third ODI brilliantly as they reduced Team India to 42/3 earlier in the day however, Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant's half-centuries propelled Team India to a fight-worthy score of 265. 

Needing a mammoth total to win, West Indies once again struggled with the willow, as their batting line-up fell apart on Friday. As many as seven West Indies batsmen were already sent back in the dugout before the Caribbean side had even crossed the 100-run mark. 

With the latest win, Team India clinched the ODI series 3-0 and they will hope to keep the momentum going in the T20I series as well, which begins from February 16.
