India Declare at 518-5 as Gill Hits 129* After Jaiswal’s 175 Ends in Run-Out

West Indies reached 26-1 in reply, leaving India on course for a 2-0 sweep.

Overview

  • An early Day 2 mix-up with captain Shubman Gill saw Yashasvi Jaiswal run out for 175 after Tagenarine Chanderpaul’s sharp fielding and Tevin Imlach’s finish at the stumps.
  • Shubman Gill responded with an unbeaten 129, bringing up his 10th Test hundred and fifth of the year as captain before calling the declaration at 518-5.
  • Nitish Kumar Reddy struck a brisk 44 and Dhruv Jurel added 43 to push India past 500 after starting the day at 318-2.
  • West Indies were 26-1 at tea, still 492 runs behind, after B Sai Sudharsan claimed a reflex catch to dismiss John Campbell off Ravindra Jadeja.
  • Jaiswal’s dismissal prompted visible on-field frustration and a wave of commentary, with Anil Kumble calling it a bad call by the opener and social-media debate splitting blame between the pair.
