KL Rahul scores unbeaten 129 as India post 351 for seven against West Indies
KL Rahul’s unbeaten 129 took India to 351 for seven before West Indies chased the target to win the third ODI.
KL Rahul scored an unbeaten 129 off 87 balls in the third ODI against West Indies at Mullanpur on October 3. The innings was his ninth ODI century and helped India reach 351 for seven after losing early wickets.
Rohit Sharma made 92 and Ruturaj Gaikwad scored 57 after Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli fell cheaply. West Indies chased the target in 48.2 overs, with Shai Hope unbeaten on 162.
The result gave India the series 2-1. Rahul said the innings gave him valuable time in the middle ahead of the 2027 World Cup.

The knock underlined Rahul’s value as a middle-order anchor when the top order fails, a scenario India will face again in South Africa next year.
