John Campbell and Shai Hope fashioned an admirable fightback for the West Indies in the form of a 138-run unbroken fourth-wicket stand after hosts India enforced the follow-on on Day 3 of the 2nd Test in Delhi.
Windies spinner Khary Pierre insists there is plenty left in the wicket for the batters. “It's about application. This is the first time we have been able to win a session in the two Test matches so far,” he said.
Campbell’s career-best 87* alongside Hope’s 66* pushed the Caribbean side to 173/2 at stumps, still needing another 97 runs to make India bat again. Tagenarine Chanderpaul (10) and Alick Athanaze (7) were earlier dismissed cheaply.
