New Delhi | Jagran Sports Desk: West Indies bowler Kesrick Williams on Sunday took a silence dig at the Indian skipper Virat Kohli after dismissing him for just 19 runs in the second T20I held at the Greenfield International Stadium, Thiruvananthpuram. The 29-year-old took the pace off the bowl that caught Kohli off guard as Lendl Simmons collected an easy catch. The interesting part was that Williams asked his teammates to keep and did not whip out his signature celebration.
In the match, India managed to post a total of 170 runs for the loss of five wickets as youngsters Shivam Dube (54) and Rishabh Pant (unbeaten 33) did for the men in blue. For West Indies, Kesrick Williams and Hayden Walsh claimed two wickets each.
Later, West Indies went on to chase the target with eight wickets in hand. Openers Lendl Simmons and Evin Lewis scored unbeaten 67 runs and 40 runs respectively while Nicholas Pooran scored 38 runs. The series is tied at 1-1 and the decider is scheduled to take place at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai on Wednesday (December 11).

Earlier in the first T20I had got into an argument with the Windies pacer, who was standing on his way while he was trying to steal a single. The 31-year-old had absolutely ripped in that over of the match. He went on to play a prolific knock to help India secure a win over West Indies in the first T20I at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad on Friday. Kohli played a scintillating knock of unbeaten 94 runs off just 50 deliveries, guiding India to a six-wicket win with eight balls left.
