NZ . Simmons smashed 82no off 51 balls to steer West Indies to
their target of 193 with two balls in hand but only after he was reprieved on 18
and 50 after being dismissed by front-foot no-balls.The errors - compounded when
Ravindra Jadeja caught Simmons on 68 only to step on the mid-wicket boundary
rope - eclipsed Virat Kohlis second majestic fifty in as many games. James
Anderson, Kumar Sangakkara and Michael Atherton react to West Indies win Kohli
followed up his unbeaten 82 against Australia with a sumptuous 89 not out off 47
balls as India ran up 192-2, then claimed the key scalp of Johnson Charles (52
off 36 balls) with his first delivery when brought on to bowl.The wicket ended a
thrilling third-wicket stand of 97 between Charles and Simmons, who subsequently
found a powerful foil in Andre Russell (43no off 20), who struck Kohli into the
stands to win the match and silence the crowd at the Wankhede Stadium. Lendl
Simmons unbeaten 82 off 51 balls helped West Indies beat India Now England and
West Indies - the victors when the sides met early in the tournament - each have
the chance of becoming the first nation to win the World Twenty20 title twice,
at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Sunday.India made a solid start after being put in
- Rohit Sharma dominating a first-wicket stand of 62 in 7.2 overs with Ajinkya
Rahane, launching Russell for successive sixes in the final over of the
powerplay before missing one from Samuel Badree that skidded on. Virat Kohlis
sumptuous strokeplay was not enough Kohli should have been run out on one after
attempting to steal a bye to the wicketkeeper after missing out on a free hit
but Denesh Ramdins shy at the stumps missed by a fraction and Dwayne Bravo,
having collected the ball, also under-armed wide. Kumar Sangakkara said MS Dhoni
must have felt like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day Rahane, recalled in place of
out-of-nick Shikhar Dhawan, matched Kohli for touch and placement as the pair
piled up a second-wicket stand of 66 in 8.1 overs with excellent running.With
overs running out the opener looked to pull Russell for six but failed to clear
Bravo at mid-wicket, clearing the way for Mahendra Singh Dhoni (15no) and Kohli
to up the rate with a formidable, unbroken stand of 64 off just 27 balls.Kohlis
hitting was as clinical as it was mesmerising - Indias talisman striking just
one six yet manufacturing a strike-rate of 190.The target was within the range
of the West Indies, who chased down 183 to beat England on the same ground in
their opening match thanks to Chris Gayles unbeaten hundred.But the left-handed
opener was undone by Jasprit Bumrahs first ball, an inswinging yorker, and
Marlon Samuels chipped a simple catch to cover to leave India in the ascendancy.
West Indies should have been three down with 50 on the board when Simmons edged
to short third man only for replays to show Ravichandran Ashwin had
overstepped.Simmons, playing his first game of the tournament in place of Andre
Fletcher (hamstring), initially played second fiddle as Charles cut loose to
launch Ashwin and Hardik Pandya for sixes to lift West Indies to 84-2 at the
halfway stage.The burly opener pummelled Pandya to the mid-wicket rope to reach
his fifty off 30 balls, setting the platform for victory but not before Simmons
was the beneficiary of another front-foot error - this time by Pandya - shortly
after completing a 35-ball half-century. The free-hit went the distance as
Indias hopes faltered, then vanished.Watch the 2016 ICC World Twenty20 Final

surprise of many, it isnt the Wolverines but their in-state rivals the Michigan
State Spartans. MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Twins have developed quite the
power stroke this summer.The starting pitching and situational hitting are still
lagging far behind.Yordano Ventura won consecutive starts for the first time in
two months, Kendrys Morales homered in his return from a one-game suspension and
the Kansas City Royals beat the Twins 7-3 Friday night despite home runs by
Miguel Sano and Brian Dozier.We like the home runs. They play, for sure, manager
Paul Molitor said. But we need to find some other ways to score.Sano went deep
for the fifth time in the last seven games and Dozier hit a two-run shot, giving
Twins starter Kyle Gibson (4-7) a one-run lead he took into the fifth inning.
The Royals hit the ball plenty hard, but the softest one made the biggest
impact.Salvador Perezs bat broke on a two-strike, two-out, two-run bloop single
with the bases loaded the gave the Royals a 4-3 lead. Third baseman Trevor
Plouffe awkwardly backpedaled for the slowly rising ball, but it cleared his
head and landed in front of diving shortstop Jorge Polanco.Its tough. He hit it
into no-mans land, Gibson said.After using eight pitchers, including utility
infielder Eduardo Escobar, and giving up 25 runs to Houston while being swept
Thursday in a doubleheader, the Twins needed Gibson to go deep into the game. He
was removed two batters into the sixth.Its a frustrating day, Gibson said.The
right-hander hasnt been able to get in a groove this season. His first-inning
ERA is 9.00, and he has recorded quality starts of six innings or more and three
runs or fewer only six times in 16 turns. Lefties are hitting .330 in 188
at-bats against him.Ventura (8-9) struck out nine in seven innings, allowing
four hits, one walk and three runs, pitching the Royals to their fifth win in
the last six games. After posting a 5.15 ERA in the first half, Ventura has a
3.26 ERA after the All-Star break.The Twins have a major league-most 63 home
runs in 42 games since June 26, and Dozier leads both leagues in that span with
15 of his 24 homers. Sano has 20 home runs this season, including 16 against
right-handers.Itss unfortunate thats been the majority of our output as of late,
Molitor said.

Mondesi hit RBI doubles for the Royals, and Paulo Orlando combined an RBI single
with two lunging catches in center field to take hits from the Twins, who have
lost four straight games after winning nine of 12 prior to the streak.The Royals
are 6-1 against the Twins this season, with 12 games left between them. After a
rough July that all but dashed their dream of returning to the playoffs and
defending their World Series title, the Royals are 7-4 in August. Their starting
pitchers have a 3.01 ERA.WET WEATHERThe game started 50 minutes late because of
steady rain that wiped out batting practice and lasted into the evening. This
was the ninth weather-related delay at Target Field this year, a total of 11
hours and 54 minutes of waiting, plus a pair of postponed games including
Wednesday.In seven seasons at the ballpark, the Twins have had 30 games delayed
and 14 games postponed.TRAINERS ROOMRoyals: Morales returned from a one-game
suspension served Thursday following his dropped appeal to Major League
Baseball. Kansas Citys home run leader was punished for returning to the dugout
following his ejection for arguing Aug. 2 at Tampa Bay about the strike
zone.Twins: LH Tommy Milone was placed on the DL with left biceps tendinitis,
the third pitcher shelved for injury in three days. RH Trevor May visited a
specialist at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, for his lower back
trouble. More testing is needed.UP NEXTRoyals: Will keep RHP Dillon Gee (4-5,
4.54 ERA) in the rotation and start him Saturday, despite needing him in relief
Wednesday in their 14-inning victory over Chicago. Gee struck out three in two
perfect innings for the win.Twins: Will send RHP Tyler Duffey (7-8, 5.93 ERA) to
the mound for the second game of the series, his 20th start of the season. He
struck out eight in six innings for the victory in his last turn, against
Houston. ' ' '
