2.02pm Time for the presentation ceremony.

Hardik Pandya: "[On Gill-Jaiswal] Brilliant. As we've seen, there's no doubt in their skillset. They just needed to spend some time between the wickets. Going forward we have to take more responsibility as a batting group and support the bowlers. I've always believed bowlers win matches. Yashasvi and Shubman were brilliant. Very pleasing to see. [On his captaincy in the last two games] I like to captain how I see the game. It's about how the game is going and I like to go with my instincts. Yes we lost two games but in the first game it was our own errors. We were cruising and in the last four overs we slipped. We spoke about how these kind of games show our character and the boys took it in their stride. The two games we played reflected that we pull up our socks and we make sure to play some good cricket. In T20 cricket no one's favourites. You have to turn up and play good cricket. You have to respect the opposition. They were 2-0 up because they played better cricket than us. Tomorrow we have to turn up and do exactly what we did today."

Rovman Powell: "I think it was a good batting surface and we were 10-15 runs short, but having said that I think Hetmyer and Hope played really well. I think there's quality bowling in our unit but we didn't stick to our plans and no matter who is bowling, when you don't stick to your plans against quality batters they will always put you under pressure. We always knew this series would come down to how we play against spin. I think both teams played good cricket to reach where they are and tomorrow's a final and in a final, I would back West Indies. [On his injury] I'm feeling okay and ready to lead the guys tomorrow."

The player of the match, Yashasvi Jaiswal: "Of course [international cricket] is not easy but I just love to go out and enjoy myself. I would love to thank Hardik bhai and the support staff, the way they have spoken it really had an impact. [On his T20 approach] I just try to play how the team needs and how I can express myself. I just think of how quickly I can score and how many runs I can get in the powerplay. Of course reading the wicket and reading the situation, but my intent is always to score runs. [On playing against Royals team-mates] I have faced them many times so I can read them well. [On batting with Gill] It was really amazing. We knew which bowlers to take on."

avikrams: "is it Pitch which helped batters or gill-Jaiswal duo were classy?" The pitch seemed to have slowed down when India were batting. The ball wasn't coming on as nicely, but they were good in their application and played some good shots and found the gaps, so I would say the credit should go to Gill and Jaiswal for making it look as easy as they did.

Siddhesh: "This was always looking like a good batting pitch and the comprehensive way in which India chased it had shown that. Definitely credit should go to Kuldeep for putting the brakes on the WI innings early and denying them a good platform to get a better launch. "

1.55pm India have pulled off the highest successful chase on this venue and they have done so with utter ease. Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal absolutely bossed the proceedings, giving nothing away. Gill fell for 77 but by the time he was out, India were already all but assured of victory and Jaiswal went on to stay unbeaten on 84 in just his second T20I. Of course, it was brilliant bowling performances from Arshdeep Singh and Kuldeep Yadav that helped keep West Indies under 180. Shimron Hetmyer and Shai Hope stood tall for West Indies, but in the end it was not nearly enough for them. And now we will have a decider tomorrow! Stay tuned for the presentation ceremony that's coming up shortly.

Just three runs needed now

Here's Holder, meanwhile

India fought back from 1-3 down to beat Malaysia 4-3 and win the Asian Champions Trophy. It's these moments that you remember, it's these moments you strive for in professional sport, and there they were - an Indian collective. Here's how India pulled off the memorable win in Chennai.

Gill and Jaiswal's was the joint-highest opening stand for India in T20Is.
