Unbeaten Virender Sehwag is guiding India to a mammoth score against West Indies in the fourth ODI in Indore. In the 42nd over India is 326 losing just two wickets.

Viru has already surpassed his top score of 175 with his 182 of 131 balls (21 fours and 6 sixes) and is going all guns firing against the Windies bowling attack.

Sehwag won the toss and elected to bat on Thursday.

The West Indies, who trail 2-1 in the five-match series, suffered their first blow when star batsman Darren Bravo was ruled out of the must-win game due to a hamstring strain.

Bravo was replaced by Kieran Powell.

India brought in debutant leg-spinner Rahul Sharma in place of fast bowler Umesh Yadav, the only change from the side that lost the third match in Ahmedabad on Monday.

Squad

West Indies: Darren Sammy (capt), Lendl Simmons, Danza Hyatt, Kieran Powell, Marlon Samuels, Kieron Pollard, Denesh Ramdin, Andre Russell, Ravi Rampaul, Kemar Roach, Sunil Narine.

India: Virender Sehwag (capt), Parthiv Patel, Gautam Gambhir, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Vinay Kumar, Rahul Sharma, Abhimanyu Mithun.
