India v West Indies - turning points

Mohammed Shami bowled with great pace and precision BCCI

9.6 Kumar to Gayle, OUT, caught at square leg! Gayle's played a poor shot. Bhuvneshwar pitched the ball short and angled it wide outside the off stump, Gayle tried to pull it from far outside off instead of trying to send it over point, and he got a top edge that lobbed up for Kohli to catch. Powell had been dismissed in similar fashion in the first innings
CH Gayle c Kohli b Kumar 33 (39m 35b 7x4 0x6) SR: 94.28

30.4 Ashwin to Powell, OUT, lbw! That's right in front. Ashwin flighted the ball into the left-hander from round the wicket, Powell could have been forward to that but he played back. The ball pitched around off and middle, straightened a little, and kept very low to beat Powell's defence and hit the pad.
KOA Powell lbw b Ashwin 36 (114m 83b 5x4 0x6) SR: 43.37

31.6 Mohammed Shami to Samuels, OUT, lbw! After reversing the ball away from the right-hander, Shami swings it into him and hits Samuels on the knee roll of the front pad. That looked like it was missing leg stump but umpire Llong did not think so. Replays indicate it would have missed leg stump, considering how much it swung. Excellent variation from Shami though.
MN Samuels lbw b Mohammed Shami 4 (8m 5b 1x4 0x6) SR: 80.00

34.3 Ashwin to Bravo, OUT, caught at point! The well-set Bravo is gone to a loose shot. Ashwin pitched outside off and got the ball to bounce a bit more. Bravo went back to cut and hit it in the air, the fielder dived forward at point to take the catch as the ball dipped on him
DM Bravo c Sharma b Ashwin 37 (93m 78b 4x4 0x6) SR: 47.43

37.6 Mohammed Shami to Ramdin, OUT, caught at short leg! Shami pitches on a length just outside off and swings it into the right-hander, cramping Ramdin for room as he defends from the crease. The ball takes the inside edge, and lobs up off the pad towards short leg, where Vijay catches it easily
D Ramdin c Vijay b Mohammed Shami 1 (15m 16b 0x4 0x6) SR: 6.25

48.2 Mohammed Shami to Sammy, OUT, Shami's done it again with reverse swing! He's battered middle stump. The ball pitched on a length outside off stump and jagged back viciously into the right-hander, Sammy was caught on the crease as he tried to defend and was beaten between bat and body. That ball kept a bit low too, considering the length it pitched, and skidded on to uproot middle stump
DJG Sammy b Mohammed Shami 8 (41m 29b 1x4 0x6) SR: 27.58
