Rain washes out 2nd T20I between India, West Indies: Twitter reactions

The second Twenty20 International (T20I) between India and West Indies was called off due to rain at Florida on Sunday. After losing the first game, India needed to win the second one in order to square the series but it wasn’t to be as West Indies won the series by 1-0. India were in a commanding position in the second game as they had a target of 144 on a batting surface. ALSO READ: India vs West Indies 2016, 2nd T20I at Florida: Pick of the Tweets

Indian bowlers did a commendable job in restricting the start-studded line up for 143. Indian openers started off well and looked good to chase down the target but couple of overs later, rain started pouring and denied India a fruitful victory. With this loss, West Indies won the series by 1-0. Twitter reacted to this and we present you with some of the tweets here:

Why don’t they host matches involving India in drought affected areas in Maharashtra? It’s sure to rain when India plays #WIvsIND

Won’t be surprised if a first time international venue in US has better covers and drainage than WI test grounds. #IndvWI
