India produced a clinical performance on Sunday to beat West Indies by 22 runs via the DLS method to clinch an unbeatable 2-0 series lead with one game to play on Sunday.

Rain brought a pre-mature end to the match as West Indies managed to reach 98 for 4 in 15.3 overs when the players were taken off the field due to the threat of lightning. No further play was possible after that as rain washed out the remainder of the game with the Windies falling short of the par score of 120 while chasing 168.

The victory was India's fifth in succession in T20 international cricket against the West Indies, drawing them level with Pakistan's record in the shortest format against the world champions.

Virat Kohli was pleased as punch after the game and he lauded the professional performance from his players.

"Had a really clinical game again today. Way we were going, could have got to 180, but pitch slowed down considerably in latter half. Winning is always going to be priority.

"But sealing the series gives the chance to bring few guys in. Idea is always going to be to win first. But winning the first two games gives the cushion.

"Starting with the new ball, the way Washington Sundar has bowled against guys who come hard at the ball, he's done a tremendous job. The composure he's shown has been outstanding. He's become fitter, leaner and is very handy with the bat as well. T20 is always going to be an exciting game for people to watch. Haven't played in Guyana before, great opportunity to experience how it's going to be like," Virat Kohli said at the post-match presentation.

West Indies captain Carlos Brathwaite on the other hand, was disappointed that rain ended their hopes of pushing for victory as they were backing themselves to get 70 off 26 balls had the full 20 overs been played in the second innings.

"Really don't think it went wrong. Didn't have the start with the ball we wanted but we pulled it back. Had a solid base with the bat, backed ourselves to get 70 off 26 even though it's a difficult task. Well played by Rovman.

"Communication with senior guys, the target we had, wanted Pollard to come in later. Our lineup is flexible enough. Batting wise, it's a lot closer to where we want to be. Consistency is what we're looking for. If we can continue restricting teams to 160. Strike rotation continuously needs to improve," Brathwaite said after the game.
