Shami, Bumrah and Chahal proving undroppable: India player ratings against West Indies

Here's a report card of how each player in Virat Kohli's side fared during their 125-run win in Manchester on Thursday

• 

  KL Rahul (6/10): Once again, the opener was guilty of losing his concentration, and his wicket, after getting his eye in. He scored 48 and, once again, could have got plenty more. Mike Egerton / PA Wire

• 

  Rohit Sharma (2/10): India's other opening batsman seems to have gone off the boil after making such a brilliant start to the tournament. He was out for 18 after looking good to make a big score. He took a catch but otherwise had a quiet game. Aijaz Rahi / AP Photo

• 

  Virat Kohli (9/10): The captain scored his fourth straight one-day international fifty and could have got a hundred. But he top-scored for his team and set the foundation for a decent total. Aijaz Rahi / AP Photo

• 

  Vijay Shankar (1/10): He had all the time in the world to get his eye in and make a big score, if nothing else to lend support to Kohli at the other end. But he threw a huge opportunity away. Jon Super / AP Photo

• 

  Kedar Jadhav (1/10): Another batsman who got out to poor shot selection, Jadhav had the chance to build on the fifty he made against Afghanistan. But he went after a delivery whose bounce he may not have properly read. Mike Egerton / PA Wire

• 

  MS Dhoni (6/10): He struggled with the bat once again, but he stayed until the end to get himself a fifty and stretch India's total to as much as possible. He may have to find a way to up the ante against better teams. Clive Mason / Getty Images

• 

  Hardik Pandya (7/10): The all-rounder came good with bat and ball. He scored a quickfire 46 and took the wicket of opener Sunil Ambris. Jon Super / AP Photo

• 

  Mohammed Shami (9/10): The fast bowler made the best use of his time on the field by taking four wickets even as Bhuvneshwar Kumar nurses an injury. But in the process, Shami has made himself undroppable and should have won the man-of-the-match award, instead of Kohli. Jon Super / AP Photo

• 

  Kuldeep Yadav (6/10): The left-arm leg-spinner took just the one wicket, but it was of Nicholas Pooran. He also kept it tight at one end - like he has been doing consistently during the past few matches. Jon Super / AP Photo

• 

  Yuzvendra Chahal (7/10): The right-arm leg-spinner was among the wickets again, taking 2-39. Clive Mason / Getty Images

• 

  Jasprit Bumrah (8/10): The fast bowler once again proved unplayable and once again took two wickets. Consistency has been Bumrah's greatest strength, which along with his short run-up and variety, has invited comparisons with former Pakistan fast bowler Wasim Akram. Jon Super / AP Photo

Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah once again combined to power India to victory, this time by 125 runs against the West Indies on Thursday, to top their team's report card as we rate individual performances throughout the Cricket World Cup.

India, who have one foot in the semi-finals of the tournament, greatly benefited from fast bowlers Shami (4-16) and Bumrah (2-9) as the Windies came nowhere close to what possibly looked like a below-par Indian total of 268-7 in Manchester. Leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal was also among the wickets.

But India have captain Virat Kohli to thank once again for scoring a crucial half-century, his fourth on the bounce, as India's other batsmen struggled.
