Team India registered an emphatic 88-run victory over West Indies in the fifth and final T20I in Florida on Sunday (August 7).

It was a dead-rubber clash as India had already taken an unassailable lead in the series. Hence, the visitors went into the game without their key players, including captain Rohit Sharma, swashbuckling batter Suryakumar Yadav, wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant and pace spearhead Bhuvneshwar Kumar.

However, the Indian team, led by Hardik Pandya, still proved too good for the hosts as they outclassed them to clinch the series 4-1.

After the resounding victory, Indian players hopped on a buggy for a victory lap around the venue. When the trio of Rohit, R Ashwin and Sanju Samson drove past the boundary ropes, fans in the stand started chanting 'Sanju, Sanju, Sanju."

Overwhelmed by the adulation, Samson also responded with a classy gesture as he got down from the car and saluted the crowd.

Here’s the video:

During the West Indies tour, Sanju Samson featured in all three ODIs and played two out of the five T20Is. While the wicketkeeper batter registered scores of 12, 54 and 6* in the 50-over series, he returned with 30 not out and 15 in the two T20I innings.
