Since taking over as India’s Test captain in June, Shubman Gill has hit a purple patch. Ravindra Jadeja, on the other hand, has been his team’s go-to man for a long time, both with the bat and with the ball.
The duo was at it again at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, playing significant hands on another day of home domination that was briefly, but only briefly, halted by an improved West Indies. At stumps on Saturday, the second day of the second Test, the visitors were 140-4 after India declared their first innings at 518-5, an hour into the second session.
