One piece of India-related news to bring you... batsman Virat Kohli has been warned over his behaviour after being involved in a heated exchange with a journalist.

Kohli reportedly verbally abused Jasvinder Sidhu, who works for the Hindustan Times, during a team practice session in Perth, wrongly believing him to be the author of an article about him.

Sidhu and the newspaper complained, and the Board of Control for Cricket in India said Kohli had been told to "maintain the dignity of the team at all times".

A BCCI statement read: "There was a misunderstanding and no abusive language was used. The BCCI has been in touch with the Indian team management on this issue, and has advised that this kind of incident should not be repeated."

There is a precedent for drama on this ground in a game between these two. India and West Indies have met only once before in an ODI at the Waca, a game which ended in a thrilling tie, external in the 1991 Benson & Hedges series.

Curtly Ambrose claimed 2-9 from eight overs as India mustered a paltry 126, but just one batsman made more than 17 as West Indies were bowled out with nine overs unused. A certain Sachin Tendulkar claimed the decisive final wicket.

Thanks James. Fine work, sir. Well, the smart money is still on an emphatic India win here, but the West Indies have at least given themselves a sliver of hope, thanks largely to skipper Jason Holder's captain's innings.

If they can bag themselves a cheeky early wicket or two, those hopes will quickly grow. It'd be nice to have a bit of drama, as opposed to an Indian procession to victory.

Right, that's all from me - Phil Dawkes will guide you through the West Indies chase when the match resumes in around 20 minutes.

Fancy a omen, West Indies fans? Well, here you go.

In one of the previous meetings between these sides at this tournament, the side batting first collapsed against some quality pace bowling and recorded a seemingly inadequate total of 183 - just one more than the West Indies managed today. On that occasion it was India, but they managed to come back and win the match by skittling a side replete with batting talent for just 140 in the second innings.

The match? The 1983 Cricket World Cup final.

Jason Holder now has the third and fourth highest scores by a number nine batsman in World Cup cricket:

64 AJ Bichel Aus v NZ Port Elizabeth 2003

59* RG de Alwis SL v Pak Swansea 1983

57 JO Holder today

56 JO Holder v SA Sydney 2015

So, the West Indies eventually managed to get themselves up to a halfway respectable total, but you suspect it still won't be nearly enough against an India team bristling with confidence.

The top order capitulated in the face of some good bowling from India. Chris Gayle, Dwayne Smith and Marlon Samuels eschewed the opportunity to build a platform and instead perished to suicidal shots and chaotic run-outs, and from there the chances of an imposing score were holed below the waterline.

From 85-7, the lower order batted excellently to get the West Indies up to 182, with skipper Jason Holder in particular giving some of his more illustrious colleagues a batting lesson. But they could not bat out the overs and against a side as accomplished as India, you suspect that will be fatal.

India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja: "There's is a little bit of slow grip on the wicket, but it's a very good batting wicket. Our batsmen are doing their job very well. We just need to look at the first 10-15 overs initially and then we can get though to the total."

West Indies 182 (44.2 overs)

Fall of wickets: 8-1 (Smith 6), 15-2 (Samuels 2), 35-3 (Gayle 21), 35-4 (Ramdin 0), 67-5 (Simmons 9), 71-6 (Carter 21), 85-7 (Russell 8), 124-8 (Sammy 26), 175-9 (Taylor 11), 182-10 9Holder 57)

Bowling figures: Shami 8-2-35-3, Yadav 10-1-42-2, Ashwin 9-0-38-1, Sharma 9-2-35-1, Jadeja 8.2-0-27-2

Live TMS commentary

Ebony Rainford-Brent
Ex-England batter on BBC Test Match Special

"I am angry. Less so after seeing Jason Holder's innings. But I was angry. I was thinking India would win but I wanted to see more from the West Indies, especially the top order. The way they went about it today was awful. If I was a West indies fan listening back at home I would have attacked my radio."

Terry Alderman
Ex-Australia seam bowler on BBC Test Match Special

"I can honestly say I have never bagged a top order in 20 years of commentating. But the application from the West Indies was disgraceful. Jason Holder and the tail has really put the top order under the spotlight. They have something of a hope now. They have got near 200, there is some bounce in the wicket, can their bowlers produce something, get a couple of wickets and get them in this game?"

This time, Holder does fall into the trap. Jadeja tosses it up, Holder tries to smite him over the top, doesn't get all of it, and Virat Kohli takes the catch at long-off. No blame attached to the skipper though - he had to chance his arm in that situation.

"That shot for four from Holder stopped a Mexican wave in its tracks. He didn't try to over-hit it. He just used the pace of the ball and steered it to the boundary."

Kemar Roach is the last man in for West Indies. Can they bat out the overs here? Holder sees the deep fielders massed in front of the wicket, awaiting the big shot over the top, and instead opens the face and glides the ball to the rope at backward point. Shot of the innings, and Holder has gone past his previous highest ODI score of 56 - set in his last match against South Africa

"He shouldn't have been playing that shot. He needed to support his skipper. There could have been another 20 or 30 runs in that partnership. Holder will be disappointed with that dismissal. I make that four of the West Indies that have been bounced out."

Jason Holder is running out of partners here. Off the very last ball of Umesh Yadav's spell, Jerome Taylor plays an ill-advised hook, the ball is on him too quickly, and Yadav pouches the loopy return catch.

Andrew Samson
BBC Test Match Special statistician

"Jason Holder is the first player to score 50 in consecutive ODI innings batting at number nine each time."

Holder brings up his fifty with a worked single into the leg-side - what a superb and valuable knock from the young captain, who started off cautiously before accelerating as he got his eye in, rather than trying to switch on the ignition in fifth gear. The number nine's ODI average is higher than those of Dwayne Smith and Jonathan Carter, who came in at two and four respectively.

A more sensible over from the West Indies - they deal in singles and twos off Jadeja.

Will Jason Holder find it as easy with the powerplay now over? He's not going to retreat back into his shell, that's for sure - he backs away to hit Yadav over the off-side and just, just clears Suresh Raina at mid-off. Another four. West Indies need Taylor to stay with Holder here but he should be out - he skies one down to Rohit Sharma at short midwicket but the usually reliable fielder shells a simple chance. India are letting West Indies off the hook here, and this match is not over.
