Pune: India succumbed to a 43-run loss against West Indies in the third ODI in Pune even though captain Virat Kohli managed to score a record breaking 38th ODI century.
West Indies have now leveled the series 1-1, and once again India's middle order crumbled down under pressure.

The Indian captain scored 107 runs off 119 balls, while the second best Indian batsman was Shikhar Dhawan with 35 runs.
Kohli was driving India’s charge until he was bowled out by Marlon Samuels when India still needed 64 runs off 51 balls to win. It was too much to get for the lower order and eventually the home side were all out for 240 runs.
Earlier, a disciplined Indian bowling attack restricted West Indies to 283/9 at the Maharashtra Cricket Association (MCA) stadium.
The visitors found a notable contribution from wicket-keeper Shai Hope, who smashed a 113-ball 95 to help his side reach a fighting total.

As he always does, Indian skipper Virat Kohli scripted another record tonight. He completed 6,000 runs scored in Asia during the chase, and became the fastest to do so. He has again overtaken his childhood idol Sachin Tendulkar in this regard.
Kohli became the first Indian and captain to score three consecutive ODI centuries. Currently, he averages 59.90 in ODIs and has also gone past the career total runs of MS Dhoni. Among players scoring most international centuries as captain, Kohli (33) ranks behind Ricky Ponting (41).
