West Indies' Shai Hope Jokingly Says He Has a Problem as the Ending of the Indian Series Nears

Shai Hope Worried About Extra Workload After Latest Player of the Match Award in Thrilling India-West Indies Series

West Indies captain Shai Hope is worried that she will have to pay for the extra burden after claiming her third Man of the Match award on the tour of India.

The opener's unbeaten 102 in the fourth Twenty20 International (T20I) sealed a superb win in Hyderabad on Wednesday. He also smashed a century in the second T20I in Ranchi.

Hope's end of the list has been in excellent form during the tour, reaching two hundred in the previous one-day international. And while he was pleased with his performances, he said he was struggling to fit his awards in his suitcase.

"They are a bit heavy to be honest and we have to check the weight of the suitcase," he said after West Indies' 24-run lead.

"I think we're going to have some trouble getting home."

A good start in Hyderabad was key, said Hope.

"We have more than 50 partnership openings," he added. So it was good for us to start the innings and then obviously we got that base, you can express yourself a bit more in the middle overs and then try to give the team the best possible result.

Omid Kalafe's 9 sixes in his 50-ball hit earned the admiration of his opponents.

"We have to respect what he has done," India opener Sanju Samson said. "He plays very good cricket shots, doesn't take too many risks, and also respects the bowlers."

Hope will be looking for more trouble for Bar in Saturday's series decider in Bengaluru.

West Indies will visit Bangladesh for a two-Test series later this month. The hosts will breathe a sigh of relief knowing that Omid is resting ahead of the ODI World Cup qualifiers in February.
