Umesh 4-45(12.1 ov)
46.1
U Yadav to Gabriel, out Bowled!! There's the 10-fer. Poor Umesh I0$ had to see Gabriel slog himself back against Ashwin, but today's been his day all through. The feat had to be his and he's deserved every bit of it - being the only fast-bowler to carry the burden. He comes up with a length delivery just outside off, Gabriel as usual doesn't have the patience to not heave it big. So he does. Clearing his leg, not getting under at all and inside-edging it to leave two of his three stumps in mess. Gabriel b U Yadav 1(3)
32.6
U Yadav to Ambris, 1 run, 139kph, shorter and facilitates Ambris to plonk his bat across to dink it towards third man
32.5
U Yadav to Ambris, no run, pushed quietly to cover
32.4
U Yadav to Ambris, no run, screaming appeal for lbw from Umesh, turned down by umpire Ian Gould. Virat steps in and has a chat, consults Pant and they decide against taking the review. Wisely so. This was full and tailed in sharply, Ambris plays down the wrong line and gets a thud on the pad. It was going down leg and HawkEye confirms the same
32.3
U Yadav to Ambris, no run, swerving fuller, greeted with a straight bat
32.2

30.5
U Yadav to Ambris, no run, oh, close. Obvious signs of reverse from Umesh, Ambris is moving across in a bid to play this full ball across the line. Thick inside-edge is clicked which deflects onto the pad. Ohhs and ahhs from the Indians, Umesh has his hands on his head
30.4
U Yadav to Ambris, no run, assured drive off the front foot, straight to mid-off

30.1

28.5
U Yadav to Ambris, 2 runs, lands this one too straight, clipped past mid-wicket
28.4
U Yadav to Ambris, no run, what a riposte from Umesh. On a back of a length and holding its line just outside off, that iffy channel for Ambris. Feels for it by sticking his bat out and the ball goes sniffing past the outside edge
28.3
U Yadav to Ambris, FOUR, expertly guided in the gap. Uses the pace on offer from Umesh, it was short and outside off. Ambris opened his bat face, judged the length perfectly and steered it past the lone slip

26.1
U Yadav to Dowrich, out Bowled!! Umesh will be on a hat-trick once again in this Test, ninth wicket of the match and it's the same depressing scenario - if you are a West Indies fan. Late swing and it's the undoing of Dowrich, pitched up and nipping back in late, Dowrich's feet went nowhere as he prodded forward with an angled bat, gets an inside edge, off his thigh-pad and the off-stump is knocked out of its groove once again. Dowrich b U Yadav 0(1)
24.6
U Yadav to Roston Chase, out Bowled!! Cleaned up! A hint of tail back into the right-hander and it's too good for Chase. Pitched in that channel just outside off and a hint of shape back into the right-hander, Chase didn't have that covered as he pressed forward, gets an inside edge that clips the thigh-pad and then goes back to demolish the off-stump. Umesh loves that and so do the Indians. The visitors are effectively 12-5 now. Roston Chase b U Yadav 6(22)

U Yadav to Kraigg Brathwaite, out Caught by Pant!! What a Test this is proving to be for Umesh. Misses out on the hat-trick but makes sure to take Brathwaite's wicket on the very next ball. To be honest, this delivery didn't deserve a wicket, but the bowler will take it. The first ball was way better than this one. But this is how things work in cricket. A gentle loosener down the leg side and Brathwaite gets a feather on his leg-glance. Pant dives to his left and pulls of a fine catch. All of a sudden the crowd has gone berserk.
