India vs West Indies Live Cricket Score, 1st Test, Day 2: West Indies 94/6 at stumps, trail India by 555 runs

This was expected but not at such a high strike rate. The Windies are not known to be great players of spin and hence they collapsed in the first innings. Perhaps coach Stuart Law instructed them to play their shots in the second innings. The start was decent - 79/1 at one stage but then as they say, if the batsmen lived by the sword, they died by it as well.

Sorry state of affairs. We are about to witness a 3-day Test. 12 wickets have fallen in 2 sessions today - to be more precise, in just 63 overs. That is almost a wicket every 5 overs. 11 of those have been to spin.

R Ashwin to Bishoo, OUT! Fantastic review from Pant and India! Windies are 8 down. The Indians are all smiles. Especially Ashwin. The keeper was the only person confident while the others were just joining in. Coming to the ball, it is down the leg side and Bishoo looks to sweep it fine. However, he misses. Now, Pant hears something and instantly appeals. For a second, I realize that age is catching up with me and my hearing senses are getting numb. But to my relief, none of my colleagues heard any sound either. But India put in a huge appeal while umpire Ian Gould shakes his head. Pant immediately urges Kohli to go for the review and his captain promptly agrees. Snickometer shows it in the first go. Terrific review though... wonder how come the others did not hear the noise? That includes me too. Anyways... TEA HAS BEEN TAKEN ON DAY 3.

HOWZZAT? HOWZZAT? HOWZZAT? Pant reckons that he has Bishoo caught behind. India have reviewed it.
