Rahane and Jadeja perish; India 6 down

October 14, 2018 09:55

India 314-6 (84 ovs) vs WI 311 | Scorecard

Jason Holder to start off with the ball on Day 3 as West Indies take the second new ball.

Ajinkya Rahane defends the first ball on the leg side before he drives the next through the covers for a four to give India the lead.

That boundary also raises the 150-run stand for the fifth wicket between Rahane and Rishabh Pant.

Pacer from both ends as Shannon Gabriel comes in from the other end. A short ball to Pant which he defends before taking one into the covers.

Rahane slashes at a short wide delivery but is unable to beat the fielder at gully before he punches the next to deep point for one.

Holder makes the breakthrough with the wicket of Rahane, who is caught at gully for 80. The ball moved away and bounced a bit extra as Rahane looking to defend got a thick outside edge.

A big wicket early in the day for West Indies.

And it gets even better for the visitors as Holder strikes two balls later with the wicket of Ravindra Jadeja, who is trapped leg before wicket for a duck. The ball comes in sharply as Jadeja looks to defend but plays down the wrong line and is caught in front. He decides to walk away with taking the review as India lose two quick wickets.

Holder nearly makes it three wickets in the over as Ravichandran Ashwin is hit on the pads by a sharp incoming delivery but the umpire turns down the appeal. West Indies take the review but the ball is clipping the outside of leg stump and it stays with the umpire's decision.

Two wickets in the over for Holder, who has taken for four for 49 in 16 overs, as India are reduced to 314 for six in 84 overs.
