SN Thakur to Lewis, out Caught by Shreyas Iyer!! That went miles up in the air and Iyer manages to take the skier. And with that wicket, it seems the crowd has come back to life. Short ball by Thakur, Lewis goes for a pull and gets a top-edge that's swallowed by Shreyas as India draw first blood. Lewis looked a bit rusty in this innings, but the partnership was a decent one for West Indies. At least the openers have given them a start. Lewis c Shreyas Iyer b SN Thakur 30(35) [4s-5]
