Welcome to the exciting live action from Day 3 of the second Test between India and West Indies in Delhi! The heroics of John Campbell and Shai Hope turned the tides for the West Indies. This dynamic duo smashed a massive unbeaten 138-run partnership, thrilling fans and ensuring the match goes into a nail-biting Day 4. John Campbell is shining bright, scoring his highest Test score ever. Meanwhile, Shai Hope finally broke a long wait, scoring his first half-century in 32 innings! Hope said this was “about time he finally converts his start into a big score and leaves his mark on Indian soil in whites.” Captain Shubman Gill’s decision to enforce the follow-on is now under the microscope. Despite India’s fierce bowling attack, including the return of Jasprit Bumrah and the spin duo Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja, the West Indies batsmen held their ground with grit. Yashasvi Jaiswal even bowled the last over of the day as India desperately chased a breakthrough, but Campbell and Hope stood tall, brushing off the pressure like true warriors. Kuldeep Yadav, who crushed West Indies earlier with a five-wicket haul, struggled here, conceding 50 runs in his ten overs. This partnership is historic for West Indies; it’s their highest for any wicket in seven Test matches this year. Campbell’s powerful hitting included a fiery fifty, featuring a six and a four against the very bowler who once had the upper hand on him. Adding drama, Campbell narrowly survived a couple of close LBW appeals after smart video reviews. With West Indies trailing India by 97 runs at stumps on Day 3, both teams are all set for a thrilling showdown on Day 4. Will India finally break this stubborn West Indies stand? Stay tuned as this cricket thriller continues in New Delhi!
