India tour of the Caribbean, Aug 3 - Sept 3

[Arthur Crabtree]

No Ashwin.

Promising start for West Indies.

[Durhamfootman]

continues to be promising

190-6 as Roach and Gabriel rip out all of the specialist batsmen

[Arthur Crabtree]

Roach has turned his career around admirably.

[mikesiva]

Another rain affected day of cricket.

India 203-6

Rahane 81
Rahul 44

Roach 3 wickets
Gabriel 2
Chase 1

[andy]

Is dowrich injured? Otherwise im suprised he is dropped...

[mikesiva]

Dowrich injured. Hope keeping. Brooks in for his debut at the young age of 30 after storming the A team series against India A with an impressive series average of 29.50.

India 297 all out.

Jadeja 58

Roach 4-66
Gabriel 3-71

[Arthur Crabtree]

Could have done without Jadeja scoring that fifty down the order.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Both openers out, but a long batting line up for WI. Holder at eight.

[GGAS]

Has Hope kept in tests before?

Looks like rain is having the last laugh.

[mikesiva]

I believe this is the first time shai Hope is the designated keeper at the start of the Test match.

Campbell 23
Kraigg 14
Brooks 11
Bravo 18
Chase 48

Once again, no half century from the top five.

West indies 222 all out.

Ishant 5-43

[Durhamfootman]

Lots of work for Holder to do to save this match

[mikesiva]

India 343-7 declared.

Rahane 102
Vihari 93
Kohli 51

Chase 4-134

Target 419.

Highly unlikely.

[Durhamfootman]

48-7

371 needed with 3 wickets in hand

even Stokes couldn't do that

[Durhamfootman]

Roach is having a go, though.... perhaps he's been inspired?

3 sixes off the last over from Jadeja

[Durhamfootman]

Miguel Cummins is a wall

45 ball duck in the first innings and now 12 balls faced here for no run

and then a four!

bottom edged through the keepers legs

go on son

WI avoid the lowest ever score against India
