Simmons grabbed a single off the first ball before Andre Russell smashed a four and six as the Windies ended on 196 for three after India made 192 for two. Simmons hit seven fours and five sixes while opener Johnson Charles notched 52, including seven fours and two sixes. It was not meant to be that way for India after Chris Gayle's wicket was taken early for just five runs but the hosts were left to rue no-balls at crucial stages.

Ravichandran Ashwin thought he had taken Simmons when the batsman was on just 18 but the umpire ruled that it was a no ball as the Windies star made the most of his luck as he stepped on the accelerator. Then in the 15th over Simmons would get lucky a second time when Hardik Pandya thought he had got him out for 50 when he was caught by Ashwin but the umpire ruled a no ball again.
