Rain stopped play as India reached a comfortable 204 for two in 35.1 overs chasing West Indies's 233 for nine in a group league game of the ICC Champions Trophy here today.

India need only 30 more runs off 89 deliveries to wrap up the match. When rain stopped play, India were well ahead in terms of Duckworth/Lewis par score which is 133 in 35.1 overs if a team loses two wickets.

In-form opener Shikhar Dhawan was batting on 92 in company of Dinesh Karthik who was undefeated on 29. Dhawan and Rohit Sharma added 101 runs for the opening stand with the Mumbai batsman contributing 52.
