Congratulations Team India for winning the ODI series v WI 3-0. Key takeaways: Rohit's captaincy, Prasidh showing great promise, Chahal showing his value. Suryakumar Yadav & Shreyas played key knocks in 2nd & 3rd ODIs respectively. Hooda impressed as well #INDvWI

Since 2010, India at home has won 20 bilateral ODI series and lost just three (to Pak in Jan 2013, SAf in Oct 2015 and Aus in Mar 2019).#IndvWI #IndvsWI#WIvInd #WIvsInd
