1.30pm After two games on a difficult track in Bridgetown, India batters have enjoyed the good conditions here and posted a huge total of 351. Rapid fifties from Kishan and Samson ensured they were always going at a good run rate, while Gill played anchor. A few wickets in the middle forced a slowdown, but Hardik's 52-ball 70 ensured India finished strong.

Here's what Sanju Samson had to say: "I think it feels really great to spend some time in the middle and score some runs and contribute for the country. It was deliberate. I had plans differently for different bowlers. I wanted to use my feet and dominate the lengths of the bowlers. [On playing different positions] Being an Indian cricketer is a challenging thing. I have been around for 8-9 years and played a lot of domestic cricket and for India. So it gives you an understanding of playing in different positions. You need to prepare yourself accordingly. Kensington Oval was a bit damp and this one looks a bit dry and when the ball was new it was coming on nicely but when the ball got old, it was holding on a little so it was tough against spinners. Not easy to get the score so credit goes to the middle order batters for hanging on and getting the score we did. With 350, we should be confident."
