3rd T20I: Arshdeep, Dhir Star As India Beat West Indies By 14 Runs, Take 2-1 Lead
With Kamil Pooran: India's bowlers defended 223 on a dew-free night to beat West Indies by 14 runs in the T20I at the Holkar Stadium here on Sunday, and take a 2-1 lead in the five-match series. Arshdeep Singh returned with figures of 3-44, while Naman Dhir took two scalps. Arshdeep, who took out in-form Shai Hope, along with others ensured that the West Indies big-hitters couldnt ace a second chase on the trot. Shamar Springer's 11-ball 35 not out gave the visitors a late push, but it went in vain, as the West Indies finished on 209/7. The win is also the first victory for a team batting first in the white-ball series so far. It came despite India's second-half slide, with soft dismissals, had made 223 look below par at one stage, after Abhishek Sharma's 30-ball 69 had laid the foundation for a big total. Indias defence began with Mayank Yadav opening with a one-run over, while Arshdeep struck when Hope went for a wild slog, but was castled for one. Shimron Hetmyer then took the attack to the bowlers. After a quiet start, he broke free with a boundary off Mayank in the third over, and was given a life on five when Abhishek Sharma dropped a simple chance of him at short third man. Hetmyer made the most of it by hitting a six and two fours off Arshdeep in the fourth over, as 19 runs came off it. With Mayank and Prince Yadav leaking runs, West Indies reached 54/1 at the end of the Powerplay, 33 runs behind India's 87/1 at the same stage. Hetmyer carted Naman Dhir for four and six, before being bowled for 43 by a slower delivery from the off-spinner which skidded as well. With Kamil Pooran struggling for timing, West Indies were under pressure and that led to Rovman Powell holing out to deep cover for five, as he went for a loft on a quicker delivery from Axar without reaching to the pitch of the ball. Pooran launched a late assault on Dhir by hitting three sixes over cow corner, wide long-off and square leg. But Dhir had the last laugh as Pooran tried the same pick-up shot, but couldnt get under the ball and holed out in the deep for 42. Sherfane Rutherford and Quention Sampson tried resurrecting the innings with some lusty boundaries, before the latter holed out to long-off on Nitish Kumar Reddys bowling. When Arshdeep took out Keemo Paul and Rutherford in four balls of the 18th over, it made the result a foregone conclusion in Indias favour, despite some last over boundary hitting from Shamar Springer, who remained unbeaten on 11-ball 35. Pooran launched a late assault on Dhir by hitting three sixes over cow corner, wide long-off and square leg. But Dhir had the last laugh as Pooran tried the same pick-up shot, but couldnt get under the ball and holed out in the deep for 42. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

3rd T20I: Reverse Swing In The Death Overs Is Always Fun, Says Arshdeep After India's 14-run Win
Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Left-arm pacer Arshdeep Singh said on Sunday that bowling in the death over with the ball reversing was always an enjoyable exercise, as he played a pivotal role in India defending 223 to beat West Indies by 14 runs in the third T20I here at the Holkar Stadium on Sunday. Named Player of the Match for his figures of 3-44, Arshdeep made the early breakthrough by castling the in-form Shai Hope in the second over. Kamil Pooran and Shimron Hetmyer both made scores in the 40s, but India never allowed the visitors to get ahead of the required rate. The contest stayed alive as long as Sherfane Rutherford was at the crease, until Arshdeep produced a phenomenal yorker to shatter his middle stump, and took Keemo Paul too to ensure the contest ended in Indias favour and help the hosts take a 2-1 lead in the five-match series. It was pretty nice, the ball was reversing a bit and it's always pretty fun to bowl at the death with some reverse swing, said Arshdeep to broadcasters at the conclusion of the game. On how the team deals with an off day, where he doesnt get a scalp, Arshdeep said, There is no such thing as a leader or senior in the team. It's a chill environment and anytime someone has a bad day, we put an arm around our shoulders and tell them it's fine. As an international cricketer you know you will have good days and bad days and you'll come back to do well. I personally love it when batters go hard at you in all phases because that's when you can test your skills and mental strength. Arshdeep also explained how he approaches changing conditions. The main focus is just to come early and bowl a little with new ball and old ball and adapt to the conditions. The schedule is always tight and the team that adapts early comes out on the right side of the result. As an international cricketer you know you will have good days and bad days and you'll come back to do well. I personally love it when batters go hard at you in all phases because that's when you can test your skills and mental strength. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Article Source: IANS

3rd T20I: Bowlers Were Decisive In Execution, Says Shreyas After India's 14-run Win
Shreyas Iyer: India captain Shreyas Iyer on Sunday praised his bowlers for their clarity and decisiveness, adding that the dry ball helped them stick to their plans while defending 223 in the third T20I against West Indies here at the Holkar Stadium on Sunday. With the bowlers led by Arshdeep Singhs 3-44 at their best, especially in bowling yorkers in the death overs, India sealed a 14-run win to go 2-1 up in the five-match series. It was wonderful because the bowlers were pretty confident with what they wanted to execute. The clarity was much more visible. They were decisive in their execution and when I was passing the ball to them, each and every bowler was up for the challenge and that's what you want, said Shreyas at the conclusion of the game. The skipper was also full of praise for the batting effort that set up the win, especially Abhishek Sharma's 69, Ishan Kishan's 37, and Prince Yadav's cameo of 13 not out at the end. Honestly, that was a phenomenal start. Abhishek doing what he does in the powerplay and Kishan coming in. He's been great in the last few months. Even Prince playing the cameo in the end, those were crucial runs. West Indies, you can never take them lightly. So we had to make sure we never get complacent. Both of them are high-scoring grounds but it's important we stick to our process and follow our routines and make sure we stay offensive, added Iyer. West Indies captain Shai Hope said the bowlers could have done better and that the dew-free conditions had played a part in them ending up at 209/7. So many things you can put your finger on. But cricket games have small margins. As a winning team, you can pick out defining moments. Probably with the ball, we could have executed better and we let a few boundaries through. I believe that the way we came back into the game was quite commendable. From the outset, if you look at that partnership, it was a very dangerous one, but we got some wickets with Roston, and we pulled it back. He also admitted the team needed a stronger top three in the batting the order, but did not want to blame one or two players. We have to find a good opening partnership to lay the platform but can't point your finger on one or two guys. Probably with the ball, we could have executed better and we let a few boundaries through. I believe that the way we came back into the game was quite commendable.

3rd T20I: We know it's not easy but the bowlers executed the plans very well, says Reddy
Digital Desk | Indore, Oct 11 (IANS) Seam-bowling all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy on Sunday lauded India's bowlers for executing their plans well to deny the West Indies easy runs while defending 223 in the third T20I here at the Holkar Stadium, as they picked a 14-run victory to get a 2-1 lead in the five-game series. Nitish, who made 21 with the bat before returning figures of one for 19, said the team was happy with the manner in which the bowlers stuck to their plans in the closing stages. In defence of 223, Indias bowlers were excellent in keeping the run-flow in control and bowled yorkers well in the death overs to keep the West Indies to 209/7. A win is a win. We are all proud of our efforts over there. We know it's not easy but the bowlers executed the plans very well. At the time I think per over they needed 14 runs, and we thought if we could keep every run for a single, it would work for us. We weren't going for wickets. Sometimes a defensive plan can be an attacking plan. Very clear plans from our skipper. We have to stick to our plans and bowl to our fields. Even if we get hit for a six, we have to stick to our plans, said Nitish to broadcasters at the conclusion of the game. Asked about the challenge of posting a good total while batting first on a pitch with short boundaries, Nitish credited the lower-order contribution of Prince Yadav (13 not out off six balls, including hitting three fours), for helping India reach 223. We started well but here and there we got a bit unlucky with a few wickets, but in the end you can see Prince getting those crucial runs mattered a lot, he added. India and the West Indies will now meet in the fourth game, to be played at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday.
Iran will buckle under US blockade: Bessent
Digital Desk | Washington, Oct 11 (IANS) US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has said Iran could be forced into submission within two to four months as the Trump administration intensifies an economic blockade aimed at crippling Tehran's finances, cutting off its oil exports and isolating it from the international financial system. In an interview with Fox and Friends Weekend on Sunday, Bessent said Washington had moved beyond its earlier maximum pressure campaign to what he described as an absolute isolation strategy, combining military operations, maritime interdictions and sweeping financial restrictions. For a year we had a maximum pressure campaign. Now we have an absolute isolation campaign, he said. Bessent claimed Iran had been effectively shut out of international oil markets and was facing a severe financial crisis. Iran now has, no oil on the water. They have negative cash flow, he said. The Treasury Secretary said the United States was also targeting Iranian cryptocurrency holdings, shipping operations and access to international banking networks. He claimed Iran no longer controlled the Strait of Hormuz, despite continuing attempts to disrupt commercial shipping through drone attacks. According to Bessent, Iranian forces were launching unmanned aerial vehicles at night but lacked the radar capabilities needed to effectively obstruct maritime traffic. He said substantial quantities of oil and petroleum products were continuing to pass through the strategic waterway. The Treasury Secretary also outlined conditions under which Iran could return to the international system. They have to give up their nuclear ambitions, he said, adding that Tehran must also end its support for militant proxies. Bessent claimed US military operations had destroyed much of Iran's naval and air capabilities, along with a significant proportion of its missile and drone production infrastructure. He said the economic campaign was compounding the military pressure, leaving Iran unable to access dollars or maintain financial stability. According to Bessent, Iran's currency had fallen sharply, from approximately 600,000 to the dollar 18 months ago to 2.8 million at one stage. He also claimed Iranian authorities had restricted the publication of currency exchange rates as the financial crisis deepened. The Treasury Secretary described the US strategy as a carefully sequenced campaign involving six weeks of military operations, followed by a maritime blockade and comprehensive economic isolation. He said President Donald Trump referred to the blockade as the Iron Wall. Bessent claimed the restrictions had disrupted fuel imports, leaving Iranians facing petrol queues lasting three to four hours. Asked whether the administration ultimately wanted a negotiated settlement or regime change, Bessent acknowledged uncertainty over the outcome. I don't know how this ends. You never know how this ends, he said. He outlined three possible scenarios: a popular uprising, internal divisions within Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps or a negotiated agreement under which Tehran abandons its nuclear programme. Bessent said he expected the blockade to continue for several months and suggested Iran's economic difficulties would eventually force its leadership to reconsider its position. He also said Trump did not anticipate further military engagement until at least after the US midterm elections.
