13.6
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, 2 runs, Pollard just gets a hand on it this time as he throws himself across the turf. Full ball outside off, nicely driven on the up by Pandey, will get a couple of runs after the half-stop
13.5
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, FOUR, packed enough of a punch from the bottom hand to beat Kieron Pollard. Short of length outside off, Pandey is able to lace it through extra cover
13.4
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, no run, bumper without much menace, Pandey safely bends underneath

13.2
Brathwaite to Karthik, no run, back of a length on off, blunted to short midwicket
13.1
Brathwaite to Karthik, no run, back of a length on middle, pops it to midwicket. Wanted to clip it through the on-side but was early to close the face on it
9.6
Brathwaite to Karthik, 1 run, yes-no-yes-no, eventually Karthik makes it through with a full-stretch dive. Tapped in front of cover-point, Karthik was ball-watching and hears the call from Manish quite late. Stop-start but no worries in the end as the fielder, who had a shy at the non-striker's end missed his target
9.5
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, 1 run, goes wide of the crease and angles it fuller outside off. Stabbed half-heartedly through cover
9.4
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, no run, Brathwaite throws it wide of off teasing Pandey, who flays and misses

9.2
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, no run, cutter, following the batsman who was backing away. Pandey was tucked for space, ends up defending it down the pitch
9.1
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, no run, fullish outside off, Pandey presses forward and extends his defence to mid-off
7.6
Brathwaite to Karthik, no run, beaten, I would say. Although Karthik pulled his bat at the last minute from the line of the delivery. Superb delivery from Brathwaite; on a length and seamed after hitting the deck forcing Karthik to stalk his bat and the ball going past the outside edge
7.5
Brathwaite to Karthik, no run, short and rising just outside off, Karthik pokes without any intent and gets a thick inside-edge onto his pad
7.4
Brathwaite to Karthik, no run, half-hearted appeal for a caught-behind as Karthik flashed his willow at this away-seamer wide of off. Clearly missed it by a long way
7.3
Brathwaite to Rahul, out Caught by Darren Bravo!! Straight to the man at deep square leg. Rahul's awful day continues. Made a few errors in the field and looked out of sorts with the bat too. Brathwaite picks up his second wicket and India in further trouble. This was short and at the stumps, Rahul camped back and muscled it hard in the air, without minding that there is a fielder set for the trap. Straight into the hands of Bravo, who makes no mistake. Rahul is disappointed with himself, slamming his bat into the turf in anger. Indian coach Ravi Shastri looks a bit worried in the dressing room. Rahul c Darren Bravo b Brathwaite 16(22) [4s-2]
7.2
Brathwaite to Rahul, no run, 131kph, tighter line from Brathwaite. This was threatening to straighten off the pitch, Rahul takes note and defends it off the outer half into the pitch
7.1
Brathwaite to Rahul, no run, shortish and coming in with the angle, Rahul stays on the back foot and blocks it into the pitch
5.6
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, no run, cutting back in and Pandey was caught in the crease unaware of the movement. The ball slams him on the thigh pad and lobs up to point
5.5
Brathwaite to Manish Pandey, no run, goodish length outside off, Pandey hops back and softly dabs it to point
5.4
Brathwaite to Pant, out Caught by Darren Bravo!! Another one falls. This has been an excellent show from the Windies with the ball and Pant perishes. The skipper strikes in his first over and has his arms aloft in joy. Stunned silence in the crowd and India wobbling a bit, losing their third wicket. It was the slower delivery from Brathwaite, change in pace deceived Pant as he lined up for a wild slog across the line. Lost his shape completely and ended up slicing it in the air off the top-edge, Darren Bravo from cover steps forward and settles under it. Throws the ball up violently and joins the celebrations. Pant c Darren Bravo b Brathwaite 1(4)
5.4
Brathwaite to Pant, wide, Brathwaite bangs it short but the line is down leg. Pant went for the pull and missed
5.3
Brathwaite to Rahul, leg byes, 1 run, sliding on leg and reared up a bit as Rahul fails to connect with the nudge. Goes off the thigh pad towards square leg
5.2
Brathwaite to Rahul, no run, straighter at the stumps, Rahul is behind the line to defend it
5.1
Brathwaite to Pant, 1 run, slanted across the left-hander, the angle made Pant play at that and he ends up squirting it away to third man
