2nd Test: India Require 58 Runs On Day Five To Complete 2-0 Series Sweep Over West Indies
Arun Jaitley Stadium: B Sai Sudharsan and KL Rahul remained unbeaten on 30 and 25 respectively as India ended day four of the second and final Test at 63/1 in 18 overs in a chase of 121 against the West Indies at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Monday. Despite India losing Yashasvi Jaiswal early, Sudharsan and Rahul ensured the hosts are well-placed to get 58 runs on day five to win the match and complete a 2-0 series victory.
On a slow pitch having some turn, Rahul and Sudharsan settled into a rhythm, negotiating spin and pace with calmness to ensure India suffered no further setbacks before stumps. While the target is modest, day four’s events served as a reminder that Test cricket rarely follows a predictable script.
Signs of resistance had emerged from a spirited West Indies when the pair of Justin Greaves and Jayden Seales batted out 25.2 overs for the last wicket stand of 79, and stretching the lead to 120, as the visitors made 390 in 118.5 overs after being asked to follow-on. For India, Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav picked three-fers each to be the standout bowlers on a taxing day of Test cricket.
