India vs West Indies Live Score, 1st Test: India Aim To Force Early Follow-On

India displayed an all-around performance on the second day of the first Test to put visitors Windies on the back foot at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot on Friday. India, resuming on the overnight total of 364/4, were boosted by Virat Kohli's 24th Test ton and Rishabh Pant's patient 92 to pile up runs against the Windies. Apart from Kohli and Pant, India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja made the most of the opportunity as he too scored 100 not out off 132 balls, with India declaring at 649/9. The West Indies, who are without their captain Jason Holder, never looked in place as they ended Day 2 with a first innings score of 94/6, trailing India by 555 runs. (LIVE SCORECARD)

The Windies are in all sorts of trouble, first against pacer Mohammad Shami and then the spinner, who cleaned up the middle order on day 2. The Indian bowlers will aim to quickly wrap up the Windies tail in the first session and enforce a follow-on so that they can bowl the tourists out twice by the end of Day 3. Shami, who bowled a fiery opening spell of four overs and ended the second day with two wickets, will be eyeing more wickets in the first session on the third day's play. Apart from the pace department, the lower order Windies batsmen will also have to be wary of India's spinning lethal spinning department.

Live updates between India vs West Indies, 1st Test, Day 3, straight from Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium, Rajkot

08:30 IST: Hello and welcome to the live updates of Day 3 of the first Test between India and the Windies.

Earlier, in the morning session of Day 2, Kohli and Rishabh Pant (92 off 84) had taken India to 506 for five. Kohli, who was 72 not out overnight, took time to knock off the 28 runs needed for yet another hundred while his partner Pant, who resumed at 17, went all guns blazing. A second Test hundred in his fourth Test was for the taking but Pant, attempting another six over mid-wicket, failed to pick the googly and top-edged it for a simple catch to Keemo Paul at backward point. His entertaining innings was laced with eight fours and four sixes.
