A strong recovery from India, who have managed to put up a formidable total on the board. While a bigger score was chased down in the previous match, India’s familiarity with bowling in these conditions gives them a chance to put the opposition batters under pressure. India’s innings got off to a shaky start with the early dismissals of Gill and Kohli, but Rohit Sharma and Ruturaj Gaikwad steadied the innings with a crucial partnership, helping India regain momentum and set up a competitive total. Ruturaj Gaikwad was given several lives in the innings, with the batter being dropped around four times. He made the most of those opportunities, going on to bring up a crucial half-century, and Rohit Sharma unfortunately missed out on a ton as he was dismissed in the 90s. Naman Dhir chipped in with a useful contribution and was involved in a crucial partnership, but it was KL Rahul's magnificent knock of 129 that helped India get past the 350-run mark. West Indies were far from their best in the field, with several dropped catches proving costly. They will now hope those missed opportunities don’t come back to haunt them as the game progresses. Back in 30 minutes for the second essay..
