Overview

  • Shubman Gill finished unbeaten on 129 and declared after Dhruv Jurel’s 44 to push India toward a 2-0 sweep of the two-Test series.
  • Ravindra Jadeja led the attack with 3-37 as India’s spinners left West Indies 378 runs behind at stumps on Day 2.
  • Jaiswal added only two to his overnight 173 before a miscommunication left him short of his crease, ending a 175 featuring 22 fours.
  • Online reaction scrutinized Gill’s role in the run-out, though Jaiswal downplayed it and Anil Kumble suggested it was the batter’s misjudgment.
  • Nitish Kumar Reddy contributed a brisk 43, and B Sai Sudharsan claimed a remarkable reflex catch at short leg to dismiss John Campbell.
