On a lighter note, why is Gambhir so worried? We still have second innings to play.

Cheers..

Nothing major credit worthy scenes happened,it's WI and we were not able to break the partnership of Bell and Hope.

This has been a superb display of application and intent from the West Indies and by far their most confident batting performance of the series. After India enforced the follow-on and struck twice early, Shai Hope and John Campbell counterattacked brilliantly, stitching together the visitors’ best partnership of the series and shifting some of the momentum their way. It’s been a clear reflection of progress and resilience, arriving at a crucial point in the contest. Earlier in the day, Kuldeep Yadav’s five-wicket haul helped India dismiss the West Indies for 248, but the visitors hit back admirably in their second innings. Hope and Campbell were positive right from the start of their partnership, taking on the spinners and dictating the tempo. In hindsight, India might have introduced Bumrah earlier, but that doesn’t take away from the quality and intent shown by this pair. Their approach on this surface - proactive yet composed, has been a template for the rest of the side. With the pitch still offering plenty for the batters, West Indies will look to build on this effort, add quick runs on Day 4, and perhaps even challenge India with a potential lead. For now, the focus will be on carrying this momentum forward, one session at a time. India, meanwhile, looked a touch flat in the final session, with a few lapses in the field and some uncharacteristic misfields. They’ll hope to regroup overnight, lift their energy levels, and return sharper and more disciplined tomorrow. This is only 3rd day of the match. Already the match has entered the 3rd innings!
