    34.2 has he got Rahul? Down the leg side? Looks like, yes. It was fuller down the leg side, Rahul went for the glance, and perhaps got a feather, Hope does well to move towards the leg side and pouch it. Rahul looks at his partner and eventually decides to leave 93/4
    4.2 big appeal for caught behind! But not given by the umpire. WI review! The big question is whether that was off the bat or pad. It was a full ball on off stump that Mayank tried to meet on the front foot. But the ball held its line, and therefore found Mayank's outside edge. Pad nowhere near the bat, this is clear as daylight. Kettleborough changes his decision and that's DRS 1, Umpire 0 5/1
    4.6 and Pujara goes too! Length ball outside off, and once again the marginal movement - away from the batsman after hitting the deck - has found his outside edge. Tried to fend this off the front foot, with the bat facing downwards, but the ball took a feather edge off his blade and that's bye bye, Pujara 7/2
    7.5 Kohli is out of here! Back of a length, landing outside off but angling in. Kohli tiptoes to cut it over point, but it flies off his blade too fine. The gully fielder dives to his right to take the catch, and it's the debutant Brooks who is under it! Game onnn! 25/3

    59.4 chopped on! A big wicket for West Indies. Was a length ball outside off, Rahane looks to punch it off the back foot. The inward movement and the extra bounce means he could get only an inside edge that deflected on to the leg stump 189/6
    54.5 Roach provides the breakthrough, was a length ball outside off, moving away a little bit after pitching and taking the outside edge as Vihari gets squared off, trying to defend. Hope does well to dive forward and take neat low catch, the ball was dying on him 175/5
    70.5 taken at second slip. Was a touch fuller once again, Pant pushes at it, gets a healthy outside edge and Holder makes no mistake. West Indies have struck early on day two 207/7
    96.4 taken by Hope. Fifth catch for the stand-in keeper. Short ball climbing in the corridor. Behind this to try and play the hook, but that gets very steep on him. He ends up slicing it behind the stumps and Hope takes a few steps back to hold onto that 297/10
    89.6 got him with a slower ball! Oh that's a soft way to go. Offcutter, yorker, outside off. That is well executed from Gabriel. Ishant picks it but it has thrown him off just enough for him to defend this onto the stumps off the inside edge 267/8
    90.2 chips it back to the bowler. No resistance from Shami. Length ball is lobbed up at middle stump and he's tried to drive with hard hands. It comes off the inside half after turning and lobs straight back up. Chase has to jump into and Jadeja as he lunges to his right, and he does it with finesse 268/9

    17.5 taken in his follow through! Lovely reflex catch from Ishant as Brathwaite drills one back to him looking to play the straight drive. It's a length ball just outside off, and like the second ball of the over, he's gone at it with hard hands. Got more power through this as it was a full-blooded drive, but that just means it goes at catching height for Ishant who hangs on in front of his knees, takes a few inelegant steps as he loses balance, but holds on 48/2
    7.6 Shami strikes in his first over, with a searing yorker just outside off. Campbell looks get his bat down, gets an inside edge that ricochets into the leg stump 36/1
    20.3 lobs up for first slip off Pant's leg and Rahane holds onto a simple catch. Looks like an arm ball from Jadeja, in the corridor. He backs away and looks to cut. it's onto him too quickly, he gets an outside edge that's too rapid for the keeper. Balloons harmlessly to Rahane's right though and that's the innings 50/3
    29.1 traps him lbw but Bravo goes for a review. Was a length ball, Bravo shuffled across but missed the flick and got hit in front of middle as the ball came in with the angle. A loud appeal from Bumrah and up goes the finger. Replays confirm the ball would have gone on to hit the middle and leg. West Indies lose the review 88/4
    42.2 a brilliant catch by Rahul at square leg. Was a length ball on the pads, Chase goes for the flick but cannot keep it down and Rahul takes a nice catch to his right. Ishant provides a breakthrough straightaway, looked like it was a plan by his reaction. Wait, we are checking for the no-ball and looks like Ishant has got a molecule an atom of his shoe behind the line. Chase is livid with himself 130/5
    53.6 got him! If it carried to Pant, that is. Soft signal is out. Superb delivery from Ishant. Slanted in at middle stump at a good length and straightening after forcing him to play. It's a scrambled seam, but this ball has cut away some distance. Hope can't do more than get an edge as he defends this. And Pant has lunged to his right and forward to get his gloves under this. That will be out. Top class from India's most experienced bowler 174/6
    55.3 oh he's taken another return catch! This one has taken some effort because it's dipping and right down by his ankle. So he's had to get his hands right down from way up in the clouds where they normally are. Length outside off, Hetmyer wants to drive on the up. As many batsmen have found in this Test, that is not easy on the pitch. Comes off the high part of the bat and loops at the bowler, who has done fantastically to hold on. What a day Ishant has had. Just all-round brilliance from him today. Tumbles as he holds on to this 179/7
    73.1 edged and taken! And this is the big wicket of Holder. Length ball outside off, and Holder goes fishing with his bat. But he's too slow to push at it, and it finds the edge of his bat. Pant makes no mistake, and India need just one more wicket to wrap up the WI innings 220/9
    55.6 taken at second slip! A five-for for Ishant! Ninth in Tests. Just hangs a full ball outside off. Roach jabs away from the body with an open face and guides it straight to Kohli. That's loose and Holder is visibly displeased 179/8
    74.2 full, on off, and he goes for a wild slog over the leg side. But Jadeja has skidded this through, and the batsman's off-stump is knocked back. West Indies all out for 222 222/10

    29.2 what has Rahul done? Full, just outside off, and Rahul goes across the stumps trying to sweep. But he's exposed all three stumps, failing to connect with the sweep, and the ball crashes into middle stump 73/2
    13.2 oh that's plumb, surely. Mayank Agarwal is caught in a terrible position. Looks like he's a victim of his own mind here. It's an overpitched ball on middle stump, the kind you would drive towards long-on. He's shaped to paddle that fine , but what's strange is that he's still standing tall as he attempts this. Right in front of the stumps. KL Rahul tells him there's no way that should be reviewed...but replays show that is missing leg! Well, well. 30/1
    30.5 through him! Length ball, just outside off, but angling in this time instead of moving away. Pujara looked to block it off the back foot, but the ball has gone through his defense! Rare way for Pujara to get dismissed 81/3
    73.4 and a soft dismissal. A leading edge towards extra cover where John Campbell jumps, stretches his right hand and takes it on the rebound. Was a length ball around off, not much turn there, Kohli was looking to play on the leg side but closes the face of the bat a tad early 187/4
    107.6 a bit fuller around off, looks to go aerial once again, and gets it from the toe-end once again, Holder moves to his left from mid-off and takes an easy catch. Vihari runs towards Rahane to congratulate him 322/5
    112.3 falls seven runs short of a maiden Test ton! Length ball on middle, angling down leg, and Vihari swipes at this. But the ball takes an under-edge and goes through to the keeper's gloves. Not the way India would've wanted to end their innings but Virat Kohli has declared 343/7
    111.4 a brilliant sliding catch by Keemo Paul at deep backward square leg, was a length ball Pant went for aerial sweep, Paul sprints to his left from deep square leg and completes the catch. Fourth wicket for Chase 336/6

    1.4 there's the first one! Fullish, in the channel outside off stump, and tries to fish at this. Takes the outside edge, and straight into the keeper's gloves 7/1
    3.5 make that two! Classic delivery, full on off stump and swinging into the left-hander. Campbell tries to drive straight, but the ball goes between bat and body and dislodges his middle stump. Bumrah celebrates like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 10/2
    4.1 appeal for lbw, and the umpire raises his finger! Full, on middle, but swinging into the batsman's pads. He misses the on-drive, with the ball hitting his back leg. Brooks chats with Bravo and eventually chooses not to review. West Indies 10 for 3 10/3
    7.3 full, on off stump, but swinging into his pads. Bravo looks to drive from off stump, but the ball - once again - finds the gap between bat and body. This is magical bowling 15/5
    6.6 Rahane makes up for Kohli's drop! Full, hovering outside off stump, and Hetmyer can't resist a drive. Takes the edge, and third slip takes a catch, reverse-cupping his hands like the Australians. Virat Kohli breathes a sigh of relief 13/4
    19.2 now Shami gets among the wickets, West Indies' last recognised batsman departs. Length ball around off, coming in with the angle, Chase was playing for the line but the ball just holds its line and clatters into off and middle. The umpires want to check for a no-ball but Shami is alright there 50/8
    11.1 off stump takes a walk, Bumrah is on fire. West Indies six down for 27. Was a length ball around off, Hope played for the line but it moved away enough to beat the outside edge and clatter into the off stump 27/6
    15.2 that's a five-for for Bumrah, he points to the name on his shirt. And what a ball it was, fuller around off, Holder was stuck deep inside his crease, looks to defend but it moves away to hit the off stump 37/7
    26.5 Pant takes a screamer! India win by 318 runs. This was a short ball on off, and Roach attempted a pull. He sliced the skyer, and Pant sprints towards square leg to complete the dismissal. 100/10
    19.6 there's the ninth wicket! Length ball, just outside off, and the back-foot punch takes his outside edge. Easy for Pant 50/9
