Chasing a score of 261, Rohit Sharma struck a classy 95 but the Indians lacked firepower to overhaul the target and were ultimately bowled out for 244 in 46.5 overs.


West Indies, who desperately needed a victory to keep themselves in the reckoning, recorded their first win in the tour to reduce the margin to 1-2.


The last wicket pair of Abhimanyu Mithun (23) and Umesh Yadav (11 not out) raised hopes of unlikely win with 28-run stand after India were reduced to 216 for nine in 43.3 overs. But West Indies’ most successful bowler , Ravi Rampaul killed any hopes that Indians might have had as he  trapped Mithun plumb in front of the wicket to end India's winning streak.

England pulled the strings on their 5 match international losing streak by winning the hardly fought one-off T20I in Kolkata against the home team, India. England finished their tough tour of India on a high as they preserved their No. 1 ranking with star performances from Steven Finn and Kevin Pietersen.

After choosing to bat India got off to a bad start as they lost 2 wickets in the first eight balls of the match, as Steven Finn inspired England finishing with impressive figures of 3 for 22 from his 4 accurate and fast overs. Suresh Raina briefly steadied the rocking Indian ship with 39 off 29 balls but he was soon sent back to the hut as Bairstow took a good catch off the bowling of Finn. India's innings failed to lift off from there and it lacked impetus, with small scores from the rest of their batsman. In the end India set England a target of 121 to finish the tour with a win.
