2nd Test: Kuldeep Takes 5-fer As India Bowl Out WI For 248, Enforce Follow-on
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav led a clinical bowling performance to pick 5-82, his fifth five-wicket haul in the format, as India bowled out the West Indies for 248 in 81.5 overs on Day 3 of the second and final Test at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday.
With a commanding first-innings lead of 270 runs on a pitch which didn’t offer much turn and bounce, India have enforced the follow-on, leaving the West Indies with 49 overs to survive in the day and an uphill mountain to climb for pushing the match into day four.
Kuldeep, in supreme control with his guile, variations and drift, turned the tide for India in the morning session with a decisive burst, removing Shai Hope, Tevin Imlach and Justin Graves in quick succession. A late ninth-wicket stand worth 46 runs between Khary Pierre and Anderson Phillip offered brief resistance, but Jasprit Bumrah struck immediately after lunch with a peach to clean up the former.
