<p>Ajinkya Rahane, who made 64 not out and Hanuma Vihari, who scored 53 not out, took the fight to the West Indies bowlers as they stroked the ball to different sections of the ground. The two punished the bowlers for their inconsistent line and length, before the declaration.</p>

<p>Earlier, in the session between lunch and tea, Kemar Roach halted India's quick victory hopes, by spearheading a minute West Indies' fightback, as he claimed the wickets of Kannur Rahul and India's captain Virat Kohli with consecutive balls, after capturing Mayank Agarwal in the morning session.</p>
