Summary India beat West Indies by eight wickets in the Group B match of the Champions Trophy.
LONDON (AP) - India became the first team through to the Champions Trophy semifinals by beating West Indies by eight wickets on Tuesday following a second consecutive hundred from Shikhar Dhawan and Ravindra Jadeja s first ODI five-wicket haul.
After Jadeja captured 5-36 to limit West Indies to 233-9, a total inflated by Darren Sammy s late batting heroics in hitting 56 from 35 balls and a more measured 60 from Johnson Charles, India swept to 236-2 with 10.5 overs to spare at The Oval.
Having scored 114 in India s 26-run win over South Africa last Thursday, Dhawan made 102 not out with 10 boundaries and a six from 107 balls.
The result eliminated Pakistan and ensured the winner of Friday s match between West Indies and South Africa also qualifies from Group B.
