India 1st inns: 400-4 (96 ovs) vs WI | Scorecard

West Indies trying a different plan against Pant, as they look to pepper the youngster with a few bouncers.

Lewis tries a short ball to Pant, who tries to play the hook shot but gets a top edge for a single to deep square leg.

Kohli collects another easy run on the off-side before Pant goes after another short ball from Lewis, as he pulls it fine on the leg side for a four to raise the 50-run stand for the fifth wicket.

In the next over, Gabriel gifts Kohli a full delivery on the pads which the India captain clips through midwicket for a boundary. He then tries the bouncer but Kohli is able to easily tuck it on the leg side for a single.

Gabriel then drifts of Pant's pads and he also flicks it off his pads for a four to race to 35 from 32 balls. He taps the fifth ball straight to the fielder at point, who is slow to react and gives away a single, which doesn't please the bowler.

Lewis puts some effort and gets the bounce to rise high and hit Pant on the bat handle as he looks to defend.

Pant then tries to play the pull shot as the ball doesn't rise as much and he fails to make proper connection. The next ball is again short as Pant looks to turn it on the leg side and gets a leading edge which nearly lobs back to the bowler.

Pant finally gets it right as he clips the last ball to fine leg for a single to bring up India's 400, in the 96th over.
