John Campbell and Shai Hope have stitched a 138-run partnership after Tea, which is also the first century stand by West Indies in 2025. A massive achievement, that too against a high-quality Indian bowling attack. WI still have a mountain to climb if they want to avoid defeat, but they've put up a fight for the first time in the series.

Stumps on Day 3. The final session of cricket belongs to West Indies. For the first time in the series, West Indies have left India searching for answers. Not a single wicket lost after Tea, with Shai Hope and John Campbell stitching a 138-run partnership. It has brought the Indian lead below 100, and given West Indies a ray of hope heading into Day 4.

WI 173/2 (49)

West Indies trail India by 97 runs.

Shubman Gill has handed the ball to Yashasvi Jaiswal for the final over of the day! This is going to be only the second over bowled by the youngster in Test cricket. Let's see if he can spring a surprise in the final 6 balls of the day.

WI 170/2 (48)

Another boundary for Shai Hope. He moves into the 60s. Hope gives himself a bit of room and plays a lovely drive through the covers for 4. West Indies continue to claw themselves back into the game.

WI 160/2 (45.3)

Shai Hope with another boundary! Short-ish, down the leg-side from Kuldeep. Hope rocks onto his back foot and slams it for 4 through the square-leg region. Hope and Campbell have given West Indies a lot to smile about in the final 2 hours today.  Their partnership is now up to 121.

WI 156/2 (45)

Shai Hope reaches 50! A first half-century in Test cricket in six years for Hope. He has had to wait 31 innings since his last fifty. Six boundaries and two sixes in the knock for Hope. Meanwhile, Campbell slams another firm cover drive for 4. He's now nearing his century!

WI 146/2 (42)

Shai Hope is up to 49. Just 1 run away from a first Test half-century in six years. Hope is a run-machine in ODI cricket, but just hasn't always translated that form into red-ball cricket. He's batted really well today, though.

WI 140/2 (41)

100-run stand comes up between Shai Hope and John Campbell. The duo have played some lovely strokes in the final session, and their efforts have meant that West Indies haven't lost a wicket after Tea. A big positive for West Indies.

WI 135/2 (39.2)

Two boundaries in a row! Shai Hope first receives a gift from Bumrah, a ball down the pads, and flicks it for 4 through mid-wicket. The next ball is beautifully timed through the covers for 4 by Hope, who is now just 4 runs away from his half-century.

WI 133/2 (37)

Sweep shot executed brilliantly once again by John Campbell. The left-hander has had his fair share of close escapes in this innings, but he's also played some nice aggressive shots. Another boundary for Campbell, and he moves up to his highest Test score!

WI 125/2 (36)

This is a good shot from Shai Hope. It was tad short outside off-stump from Kuldeep Yadav and the right-handed batter transfered his wight on the backfoot and punched it away through the cover region for a four.

Since both John Campbell and Shai Hope are solid in the middle, India captain Shubman Gill was forced to make a change in strategy. He introduced pacer Jasprit Bumrah from one end, discontinuing spinner Washington Sundar. The ace pacer started this spell of his with a maiden over.

Both John Campbell and Shai Hope are struggling to rotate the strike against Indian spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Washington Sundar. They have managed to take just four singles in the past six overs against the Indian spin duo.

WI 114/2 (32)

Seven runs came off the third over from Kuldeep Yadav. West Indies crossed the mark of 100, meanwhile. John Campbell is playing a solid knock and Shai Hope is providing him a good hand from the other end.Windies trail India by 166 runs.

Shai Hope also chipping in with the boundaries. Two in one over against Washington Sundar. The 50-run partnership is up between Hope and Campbell now. Campbell also continues the charge, and slams another maximum against Kuldeep. Clear change in approach from WI, and it's working!

WI 97/2 (24)

John Campbell goes after Kuldeep! A maximum and a boundary in the same over. Flat six over square-leg first, and then a boundary lofted straight. 50 for Campbell, he becomes the first West Indies batter to slam a half-century in the series.

WI 80/2 (22)

Third time now! It's a carbon copy of the previous shout from Washington Sundar. Campbell goes for the front foot block, but it hits him on the pad first. Big appeal, turned down by the umpire. India take the DRS again, and once again, it's umpire's call on the impact that saves Campbell! 

A bewildered Washington has a chat with umpire Richard Illingworth.

WI 64/2 (20.4)

Another DRS call, and another narrow escape for Campbell! A front foot block this time, another loud appeal by Washington, but the umpire says no. India take the DRS review, and even though it's pad-first, Campbell is saved as the impact is umpire's call. Close call.

WI 58/2 (18.5)

DRS to the rescue for West Indies! Right after the boundary, Campbell goes for another sweep, but this time he doesn't pull it off. Trapped on the pads, a huge appeal from Washington Sundar, and the umpire gives it out! Campbell takes the DRS straight away, and UltraEdge shows that the ball hit the glove before it hit the pads.

WI 58/2 (18.4)

Lovely sweep shot, 4 runs! John Campbell has played some excellent strokes in the second innings, and he continues in the same fashion against Washington Sundar. The left-handed opener is into the 30s now, and will be hoping to convert this start into a big score.

WI 58/2 (18.3)

Another maximum! This time it's Shai Hope joining the party. Smashes Washington Sundar over long-on for 6. That shot brings up the 50 for the visitors. Hope times a good straight drive on the next ball. It nearly goes for 4, but is saved near the boundary by Jadeja. Two more.

WI 53/2 (16.2)

What a shot! Jadeja continues from the other end, but John Campbell brings out an excellent shot to clear the ropes over long-on! Lovely timing, all the way for 6. First maximum of the West Indies second innings. Well-executed risk.

WI 43/2 (15.3)

Shai Hope survives a HUGE scare first ball! Hope tries to dig out Washington Sundar's first ball, but it seemed like it took an edge before being caught at first slip! The third umpire is referred to, and replays show that the ball hit the ground before going to the fielder.

WI 35/2 (15)

Welcome back to the final session on Day 3 of the second Test. West Indies in big trouble at the moment. They need a long partnership here to begin the rebuild and avoid an innings defeat. Shai Hope is now at the crease, alongside Campbell. Washington Sundar continues.

WI 35/2 (14.3)

Tea on Day 3. West Indies have lost two wickets in their second innings already. India are in the driving seat, and will be favourites from here to clinch another innings victory. Kuldeep Yadav was the star of the morning, but Siraj and Washington have wreaked havoc just before Tea.

WI 35/2 (14.3)

BOWLED! Alick Athanaze's off-stump has been knocked over by Washington Sundar. A wonderful delivery by the off-spinner, who strikes with just his ninth ball of the spell. West Indies two-down now, and have a mountain to climb. And that will be Tea.

WI 35/2 (14.3)

Washington Sundar replaces Mohammed Siraj in the bowling attack. A tidy over from the off-spinner, who concedes 2 runs in his first over. End of a good first spell by Siraj - 1/10 in 6 overs. Jadeja continues from the other end.

WI 35/1 (13)

Lovely shot from Alick Athanaze to get off the mark. Boundary against Siraj, who is looking great at the moment. Short delivery from the Indian pacer. Athanaze stands tall, and flicks it through the gully region for 4.

WI 31/1 (11)

Two boundaries in one over! John Campbell hasn't given Jadeja much to smile about in the first spell. First boundary is swept away well by Campbell, while the second one is punched through the covers by the southpaw.

WI 25/1 (10)

GONE! Incredible catch! Short ball from Siraj, Chanderpaul goes for the pull, mistimes it, and then Shubman Gill takes an absolute blinder! The Indian captain races from mid-wicket to mid-on, puts in the dive, and takes a stunning catch. India strike!

WI 17/1 (8.3)

Tagenarine Chanderpaul and John Campbell are navigating the opening overs well. India are switching things up by targetting the Windies openers with spin and seam, but it's been a decent start. A good opening stand is very necessary if West Indies want to avoid an innings defeat. 

WI 16/0 (7)

Boundary for Tagenarine Chanderpaul. The left-hander, son of WI legend Shivnarine Chanderpaul, looked bright in the first innings but failed to convert his start to a big score. This time, he'll be looking to score big. A nicely-timed shot to pick up 4 runs past the slips.

WI 14/0 (4)

No Jasprit Bumrah. Shubman Gill instead hands the new ball to Ravindra Jadeja. He clearly sees a lot of turn on the pitch, and he's started with left-arm spin from one end. Jadeja almost makes an instant impact, trapping Chanderpaul on the pads. However, the loud appeal is turned down.

Campbell laps it for 4 on the final ball of the over.

WI 5/0 (2)

Here go the West Indies again then. John Campbell and Tagenarine Chanderpaul opening the batting for the West Indies. Mohammed Siraj opens the bowling again for India. WI trail by 270 runs, so they must put in a great effort to avoid a second innings defeat in a row.

Siraj starts off with a maiden.

WI 0/0 (1)

After bowling West Indies out for 248, India have enforced a follow-on. The West Indies will be out soon to bat. Stay tuned for all the live updates. 

Kuldeep Yadav has now taken five five-wicket-hauls in Test cricket. He levels former England spinner Johnny Wardle as the left-arm chinaman bowler with the most five-wicket hauls in Tests. He has also done it 13 Tests quicker than Wardle, making him the fastest to the feat among chinaman bowlers!

Most fifers by left arm chinaman bowlers:

5 - Kuldeep Yadav (15 Tests)

5 - Johnny Wardle (28)

4 - Paul Adams (45)

Kuldeep Yadav completes his five-wicket haul as he dismisses Jayden Seales for 13. With this, West Indies have been bundled out for 248, trailing by 270 runs. For India, Kuldeep takes five wickets while Ravindra Jadeja takes three. Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah also take one wicket each. 

Jayden Seales is playing fearless cricket and dealing in boundaries. In the previous over of Kuldeep Yadav, Seales hits two boundaries as the spinner leaks eight runs. Both Seales and Anderson Phillip are forming a good partnership as the West Indies trail by 270 runs.

WI 248/9 (80 overs)

FOUR!!! Kuldeep Yadav becomes unlucky as his delivery dodges the batter but races across the boundary line for a four. The ball also goes past wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel as Kuldeep stands their with a disappointed look on his face. 

WI 238/9 (78 overs)

Despite losing the wicket of Khary Pierre, the West Indies batters continue to attack Jasprit Bumrah. In the previous over of the pacer, Jayden Seals hits a boundary against Bumrah. In total, he concedes eight runs as India need just one more wicket to impose a follow-on. 

WI 229/9 (75 overs)

OUT!!! Jasprit Bumrah, you beauty!!! Khary Pierre hits a boundary on Jasprit Bumrah. On the very next delivery, the star pacer takes revenge by rattling up his off stump. The ball brilliantly dislodges the stump, which then goes cartwheeling. Ninth wicket gone for the West Indies. 

WI 221/9 (72.5 overs)

Hello and welcome to the second session of play on Day 3 of the second Test between India and West Indies. Khary Pierre and Anderson Phillip are out at the crease as the West Indies aim to take this partnership deeper. Trailing by 301 runs, the visitors need 103 runs more to avoid a follow-on. For India, Jasprit Bumrah will be bowling the first over of the session. 

At the end of the 71st over, which was bowled by Washington Sundar, the match was supposed to pause for the lunch break. After the last ball was delivered, KL Rahul quickly removed the bails as it was lunch time. However, the on-field umpire signaled the players to continue the game and bowl another over before going for the lunch. This left everyone confused and Ravinda Jadeja bowled the 72nd over before the lunch was taken. 

This marks the end of the first session on Day 3 of the second Test between India and West Indies. At Lunch, the West Indies' score read 217/8, trailing by 301 runs. Currently, Khary Pierre (19*) and Anderson Phillip (19*) are standing unbeaten at the crease for eight-down West Indies. In this session, Kuldeep Yadav took three wickets while Mohammed Siraj took one. 

FOUR!!! Khary Pierre gets a brilliant boundary on Washington Sundar's delivery. Pierre stays deep in the crease and then beats backward point with the cut, runs away to the ropes. Brilliant batting from Pierre and Anderson Phillip. 

WI 213/8 (68.1 overs)

West Indies need 111 runs more to avoid the follow-on. Currently, Khary Pierre and Anderson Phillip are forming a partnership and taking the West Indies ahead in the match. In the previous over of Washington Sundar, the duo scores four runs. They aim for some boundaries in the upcoming overs.

WI 209/8 (67 overs)

The partnership between Khary Pierre and Anderson Phillip proves to be a relief for the West Indies. In the previous over of Ravindra Jadeja, the duo scores five runs, which include a boundary from Phillip. With this, the West Indies also cross the 200-run mark. The visitors still trailing by 316 runs. 

WI 202/8 (64 overs)

FOUR!!! Washington Sundar gets hit for a boundary by Khary Pierre. The West Indies extends his arm and places a lofted shot, which crosses the mid-off for a four. In total, Sundar concedes four runs in his first over of the day. 

WI 187/8 (61 overs)

OH NO!! Kuldeep Yadav misses a golden opportunity of completing his five-wicket haul. The ball goes up in the air after Anderson Phillip's gloves. Looking like an easy catch, wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel fails to judge it as the ball falls on ground. Seeing this, Kuldeep yells at Jurel for his error. 

WI 176/8 (57.3 overs)

OUT! Mohammed Siraj joins the wicket-taking party and gives India the wicket of Jomel Warrican for 1. Warrican completely gets bamboozled by the ultimate pace of Siraj as the ball rattles the middle and the leg stump. Eighth wicket gone for the West Indies. 

WI 175/8 (56.3 overs)

OUT!!!! Kuldeep Yadav is on fire today as he takes his fourth wicket. This time, he dismisses Justin Greaves for 18 as the West Indies 7 down. Greaves tries to go for a reverse-sweep but the ball misses the bat and hits the pads. The on-field umpire wastes no time and signals LBW out. 

WI 174/7 (55.2 overs)

"Sai Sudharsan had an impact injury on Day 2 while attempting a catch. He has not taken the field today as a precautionary measure. The injury is not serious, and he is doing fine. He continues to be monitored by the BCCI Medical Team," the BCCI said in a statement on Sunday during day three's play.

OUT! Kuldeep Yadav claims his second wicket, dismissing Tevin Imlach for 21. It's a complex dismissal: after the ball hit Imlach's pads and results in a catch at short leg, the on-field umpire give him out. Replays, however, shows that the batter was out LBW (leg-before-wicket) first. West Indies lose their sixth wicket.

WI 163/6 (52 overs)

FOUR!!! Justin Greaves hits a good boundary against Jasprit Bumrah. A full-delivery from Bumrah, Greaves times his shot perfectly, which dodges the fielder at the mid-on and races across the boundary line for a four. 

WI 161/5 (50.2 overs)

OUT!!! Kuldeep Yadav finally breaks the partnership as he dismisses Shai Hope for 36. A terrific spin delivery from Kuldeep as Hope tries to go for a defensive hit. However, the ball dodges the bat and rattles the off stump. The massive turn in the ball leaves Hope stunned as he stands there for a second in disbelief. Fifth wicket gone for the West Indies. 

WI 156/5 (49.3 overs)

Shai Hope is standing strong and forming a terrific partnership with Tevin Imlach. Currently batting at 35, Hope is inching closer towards his half-century. It will be his sixth half-century in the longest format for the West Indies. The duo need to take this partnership deeper in order to bounce back into the match. 

WI 154/4 (48 overs)

Jasprit Bumrah bounces back in style. After leaking eight runs in his first over, he bowls a brilliant maiden over. India aim for some quick wicket, in order to bundle out the West Indies at the earliest and a force a follow-on. 

WI 152/4 (47 overs)

WOAH!!! The West Indies leave the cautious approach and start the onslaught against star pacer Jasprit Bumrah. In the previous over of Bumrah, Tevin Imlach hits two brilliant boundaries as the pacer concedes eight runs. The visitors need more of such overs to put some fight against India. 

WI 150/4 (45 overs)

The West Indies batters are assessing the situation in the first over and not taking any risks. The duo of Shai Hope and Tevin Imlach scores two runs in the first over of Kuldeep Yadav. They now aim for some boundaries in the upcoming overs. 

WI 142/4 (44 overs)

The play on Day 3 of the second Test between India and West Indies finally begins. For the West Indies, Shai hope (31*) and Tevin Imlach (14*) will be resuming the innings from 140/4. On the other hand, Kuldeep Yadav will be bowling the first over for Team India. Let's play! 

"Standing at the North End, there are some footmarks. There's a nice grass cover that has kept it together nicely. The cracks are a lot more evident but they are not too bad because of the grass. Batting from this end, it looks quite secure and runs are available. It looks good from this end. From the other end, there are footmarks. You can see the cracks opening up. The spinners will use these footmarks," reckon Deep Dasgupta and Ian Bishop. 

So far, Ravindra Jadeja has scalped 32 wickets at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. If he scalps one more wicket today, he will surpass the legendary Kapil Dev to become the third-highest wicket-taker for India in Tests in Delhi. The record for the highest wickets in Delhi has been created by Anil Kumble with 58 wickets. 

"It's (his run-out) part of the game, so it's fine. There is always a thought that what I can achieve and what can be my goal and my team's goal, I just try and be in the game and make sure if I'm in, I should take it long," said Yashasvi Jaiswal.

India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal lost his wicket on 175 and missed out on his career's third double-century. It was an unfortunate dismissal as Jaiswal was involved in an ugly mix-up with skipper Shubman Gill and was run out. It was a heartbreaking scene, but Gill made up for it as he also scored a century and put India in a dominating position.

As the West Indies trail by 378 runs with only six wickets in hand, Team India aims to bundle them out in the first session itself, in order to force a follow-on. India have been a dominating a force in the match with both bat and ball. They are looking for another big victory over the visitors. 

Hosts India reduced West Indies to 140/4 at stumps on day two, after amassing a massive first-innings total of 518 for five declared in the second Test on Saturday. Spinners Ravindra Jadeja (3/37) and Kuldeep Yadav (1/45) shared four wickets between them, leaving the visitors trailing India by 378 runs with Shai Hope (31 not out) and Tevin Imlach (14 not out) manning the crease at stumps.
