Ashwin gets Brathwaite
Ravi Ashwin finds the opening. India were patient for this and achieve the reward. A beautiful fuller ball around off, turned into the batter. Brathwaite left very little gap between bat and pad but the Indian wizard found that to perfection. Athanaze is now in.

West Indies trail by 352 runs but have nine wickets in hand to extend fightback
At 86/1 in 41 overs, West Indies captain Kraigg Brathwaite and debutant Kiri McKenzie are looking adamant to resume fightback on Day 3 at Port of Spain. Indian pacers were toothless on Day 2 and will look to make some impact with a new ball in the first session today. Ravindra Jadeja picked only wicket for the visiting side on Friday so Rohit Sharma might tempt to introduce spin early in the game.
