India vs West Indies, 2nd Test Day 3: West Indies 45/2 at stumps, India need 8 wickets to win

1 session? 2 sessions? 3 sessions? How many do you think will India take to pick the remaining 8 wickets? If you read the above, you would probably say we are too biased towards the Indian side but to be honest, a Windies win looks improbable. An unreal effort will be needed from their batters if they are to pull this off. However, seeing the way they have batted, it looks like there is only one result on the cards. Stay tuned for the start of the first session.

... Day 4, Session 1 ...

India, on the other hand, are outright favorites as they have only eight wickets to take and have two complete days remaining. However, one believes that the whole of Monday will be enough to take the remaining wickets. Join us on Day 4 for what probably could be the last day of the Test match at 0930 local (1430 GMT). Cheers!

The Windies batsmen though can be be happy with their batting performance in the final session. They managed to lose only the two wickets which is quite different from their previous innings where they had lost wickets in a heap at the start. However, there is still a long way to go and the remaining batters will have to bat out of their skins if they have to give India a run for their money.

It has been India's day throughout. They firstly bowled out the hosts for 117 and then, after a sedate start to their innings and a few early wickets, Rahane and Vihari surged an unbeaten 111-run stand and gave West Indies a huge target of 468. Both got to their respective fifties before Kohli decided to declare. Also they managed to take two Windies wickets in the hour they got to bowl at the Windies batters.

J Bumrah to Bravo, Whoa! Almost a wicket off the last ball! Perfect planning from Bumrah as he rattled Bravo with back-to-back bouncers and then dished a wide fuller ball. The sucker ball one can say. Bravo goes after it but misses to get bat on ball. This was a very risky shot and if you add the fact that this was the last ball of the day, there was no need to go after the ball like that. Anyway, STUMPS ON DAY 3!

J Bumrah to Bravo, Bumrah continues bowling back of a length ball. But this one is sprayed down the leg side. Bravo ducks under it well.

Bumrah to Bravo, Nasty! What a bumper this one. Back of a length ball on the body again, Bravo is not sure if he wants to duck or sway away. He closes his eyes as the ball comes close. He is hit flush on the helmet. The Indian players surround him to check if he is okay.

Just three balls left in the day. Can Bumrah produce a magic ball to get another wicket?
