Ashwin to Blackwood, OUT! LBW! Ashwin has his man! Flighted outside off, Blackwood comes half forward to defend but misses and is hit on the pads. There is a big appeal and umpire Aleem Dar raises his finger. Sir Viv Richards on air is not too happy with the decision, reckons that there is too much spin. Sanjay Manjrekar begs to differ though. Let us see what the Hawk Eye shows. Excellent knock from Blackwood, a run-a-ball 62 in a stand of 81. West Indies in a slightly better position. Hawk Eye shows that indeed to be spinning a long way, just clipping the leg stump. Way to go, Sir Viv!

M Shami to Chase, OUT! That is a fine catch! Shami has his second wicket. Full and outside off, a touch wide, Chase looks to drive away from his body and gets a thick outside edge. The ball dies on its way to the slip cordon but Shikhar Dhawan at first slip watches the ball to the ball carefully and takes it calmly to his left. West Indies could get bowled out in this session.

R Ashwin to Dowrich, OUT! Ashwin strikes again! Tossed up ball outside off, Dowrick gets back and looks to leave that ball. He was late in removing his bat as the bat gets stuck in his back pad. The ball kisses the willow and Saha behind the stumps takes a good catch. west Indies 6 down now.

R Ashwin to Holder, OUT! 18th 5-wicket haul in Tests for Ashwin! Boy, that is a ratio of a fifer in almost every three innings. Brilliant bowling again. Tosses this one outside off, Holder steps out of his crease and looks to defend. The ball takes the inside edge, pops onto the pads, then lobs up. Lokesh Rahul from short leg goes back and Shikhar Dhawan gets around from shot fine leg. Rahul calls for it and takes it behind his head. There is an appeal but Holder does not wait for the umpire's call. Walks off.

R Ashwin to Bishoo, OUT! Caught! Ashwin has his fourth. Full on middle, Bishoo looks to play the slog sweep. That seems pretty ill-advised when you have a fielder at the mid-wicket boundary and it turns out so. Only, the ball does not carry to that fielder. It does take the top edge though, goes straight up in the air and Shikhar Dhawan at short fine leg takes a simple one. Can the Windies hang around till Tea?

A Mishra to Gabriel, OUT! Caught! That ends the innings. Landed outside off, Gabriel looks to play the slog but gets a top edge which goes high in the air. Virat Kohli calls for it from extra cover and takes it near mid off. WEST INDIES HAVE BEEN BOWLED OUT FOR 196.

S Gabriel to Rahul, OUT! Given out caught behind. Too close to call. Without the Hot Spot or Snickometer it was never going to be conclusive. A length ball down the leg side, Rahul looked to tickle it fine but misses. Shane Dowrich collected and the fielding side appealed. Umpire Dar consulted with his partner and referred it to the third umpire, indicating that it is not out. Plenty of replays were seen, the ball had carried but there were no clear signs of an edge. However, the third umpire felt that there was a deflection and ruled it out. Rahul was not happy at all, perhaps he didn't think he nicked it. Neither do we. West Indies will not mind it though. Rahul departs for a magnanimous 158 and the 69-run stand has been broken. INDIA AHEAD BY 81.

R Chase to Dhawan, OUT! Stop the press. West Indies have taken a wicket. Dhawan departs cheaply. This is well tossed up outside off, Dhawan looks to drive but does not bother to keep it down. The ball goes towards short extra cover where Darren Bravo takes it this time. Dhawan departs for a watchful 27 and the 87-run stand has been broken. Chase has his first victim in Tests. India trail by 109 runs.

J Holder to Pujara, OUT! Run out! Back of a length, Pujara gets on his toes and works it on the leg side and runs for a quick single. Roston Chase from square leg runs swiftly towards the ball, picks it up and throws at the non-striker's end and hits the woodwork cleanly. The umpire refers it upstairs. The replay shows that Pujara is well short of the ground and has to walk back to the pavilion. That's the end of a long and sluggish innings by Cheteshwar Pujara.

R Chase to Kohli, OUT! That's a huge wicket! Shorter length delivery, pitched outside off. The ball spun in slightly into Kohli, he tried to flick it off his pads but ended up playing it straight in the hands of Chandrika at forward short leg. That's disappointing for the Indian skipper to get out in such a fashion. Good reflex catch taken by Chandrika. West Indies will be happy to see the skipper's back.

D Bishoo to Ashwin, OUT! LBW! We say, yorkers are so effective. Never did we think that it will be applicable to a spinner. Bishoo has struck. A full toss on middle, Ashwin looks to defend but misses and is hit right on the toe. That is nearly a yorker, looking by the way he played it. Umpire Ian Gould does not take long to raise his finger. Some success then for the home side this session.

J Holder to Saha, OUT! JASON gets his man! Hurls a length delivery outside off, nipping in after pitching. Saha comes forward to defend but the ball goes on to hit him on the knee roll. Holder turns back to appeal and this time the umpire raises his finger much to his delight. West Indies will be really happy as they have broken the 98-run stand. With that it's LUNCH ON DAY 3!

R Chase to Mishra, OUT! Soft dismissal! Tossed up ball on off, it spins in after pitching. Amit looks to work it on the leg side but the ball goes of the inner half of the bat on to the pads. It balloons to the leg side. Chandrika at short leg catches it quite comfortably. Wicket straightaway after the hault.

R Chase to M Shami, OUT! Two in two for Chase! It is a dream ball from Chase to the tailender! Tossed up ball on off, it goes on to hold the line and beats the defense of Shami. The technique of forward defense doesn't work and he has to go back with a dejection. Windes all pumped up.

R Chase to Yadav, OUT! Chase gets his 5-fer! Tossed up ball outside off, Yadav kneels and goes for a slog sweep. This time he couldn't connect it and the ball goes high up in the air off that top edge. Holder at mid-wicket gets himself underneath it and dismisses Umesh. The short little cameo has been ended. INDIA HAVE DECLARED AND LEAD BY 304 RUNS!

A Mishra to Brathwaite, OUT! THE BOWLING CHANGE DOES THE TRICK! Spin once again does the business. Shorter and flatter on middle and leg, Brathwaite goes back and goes for the pull. Goes into the shot too early which does him in. Gets a thick top edge which balloons towards mid-wicket and Lokesh Rahul there makes no mistake. Runs back and takes a well judged catch, never taking his eyes off the ball. Second wicket down for West Indies and that too just before the break.

I Sharma to Chandrika, OUT! FIRST ONE TO FALL! Length ball outside off, bounces little extra off the pitch. Chandrika leans forward trying to leave it but gets hit on his elbow and onto the stumps. What a way to get out! There was nothing in the ball to get the better of the batsman, totally his fault. Ishant makes the first breakthrough and Rajan Chandrika has to walk back.

M Shami to D Bravo, OUT! MOHAMMED SHAMI, YOU LITTLE RIPPER! What a ball! Bang. Speading the smiles, his teammates are ecstatic and why shouldn't they be? He comes from around the wicket to Bravo, bangs this one in short and angling in, it's a sharp one and the southpaw is completely taken by surprise. He's in no position to play this and just tries to bring his bat up to it. Gets a healthy edge which flies to Lokesh Rahul at second slip. That's his second catch of the day and he takes it well. And with this wicket, the umpire has decided that will be enough. LUNCH WILL BE TAKEN NOW!

Shami to M Samuels, OUT! BOWLED 'EM! And Samuels is gone. Shami with a good line and with some luck, sends Marlon packing. Length delivery on middle and off, some away movement there and the ball keeps a little low as well. Samuels is all but beaten as he tries to bring his bat down to this one. The ball beats the outside edge and knocks the off stump over. Big wicket for the Indians and they know that.

R Ashwin to J Blackwood, OUT! Ashwin strikes and Blackwood is gone! Ashwin from around the wicket serves a tossed up ball on middle and leg. Blackwood comes forward and tries to defend. In the process, he bends a bit extra and the ball goes off the inside edge via pads to the leg side. Pujara at short leg sees the ball falling to his left side and he sticks his left hand. The ball sticks and the prized wicket of the dangerman is achieved, he has to walk back after playing so well. The mammoth 93-stand is broken after that explosive counter-attack.

A Mishra to Dowrich, OUT! A sorry end to a brilliant knock! Tossed up ball on off, it holds its line after pitching. Dowrich off his front foot looks to defend but the ball goes onto hit the pads. The appeal for lbw is on and umpire Ian Gould gives it out in no time. The batsman looks in agony and the replays show there was a big fat inside edge. Finally, the great stand of 144 has been broken. The Indian team feel they have a chance to sneak in here now. West Indies still trail by just 19 runs.
