West Indies were 214/8 (97.4 Overs) in reply to India’s 353, post lunch on day four of the third cricket Test. Bhuvneshwar picked 4 scalps as Windies trembled under pressure.

With West Indies resuming at 107/1, it looked like it would be a long day in the field for India with Darren Bravo and Kraig Brathwaite continuing their gritty partnership.

India's glimmer of hope came in the ninth over of the morning. Ishant Sharma had Darren Bravo miscuing a pull, and Ravindra Jadeja took a comfortable catch at fine-leg. Replays on Ishant's foot-landing, however, indicated that he had slightly overstepped. After multiple replays, the third umpire deemed them inconclusive to call it a no ball and Bravo had to depart.

Virat Kohli turned to the spinners soon after, and R Ashwin took next to no time to make an impact. He had Kraigg Brathwaite smartly caught down the leg-side by Wriddhiman Saha. Marlon Samuels and Jermaine Blackwood took a cautious route to overcome Jadeja and Ashwin.
