  "account": "In Ranchi, West Indies stunned India with a 250-run T20 chase, recording the second-highest run chase in men's T20 cricket history. The match saw a 120-run partnership between West Indies' skipper Shai Hope and Sherfane Rutherford, who together scored 120 runs to chase down India's 249-5 total. Hope, who scored an unbeaten 102, was eventually dismissed off the ninth ball of his innings. Rutherford, who smashed seven fours and seven sixes in his 37-ball explosion, also contributed significantly to the chase. Indian pace bowler Shubman Gill and India were fined by the ICC following the series.",
