So the declaration has come at 2.52pm according to my watch. That leaves West Indies 38 minutes to bat before tea should weather hold up and should the light be deemed good enough for the quicks to operate

Mark: "The latest on the developing storm is that Tropical Storm conditions are expected in Jamaica by tonight. Don't expect to get in all the overs! Still not upgraded formally to a tropical storm yet because there is no proof of a closed circulation."

Rohith: "So Virat was actually waiting for Chase's Five wicket haul :P"

Chase to Yadav, OUT, Chase has a Test five-for. Yadav looks for the big almighty slog, and gets a top edge to a flat offbreak, and the skier is taken at midwicket. With that Kohli has declared

UT Yadav c Holder b Chase 19 (31m 14b 4x4 0x6) SR: 135.71

END OF OVER:
171 | 8 Runs | IND: 500/8

  • Roston Chase36-4-121-4

"If India declare now, umpire might not let WI take the field again, so better to swell the lead for now." Ankur, which is why I think West Indies should get their quicks on

Brathwaite to Rahane, no run, looks for an inside-out drive, can't beat the man at short cover

Drizzling again

Brathwaite to Rahane, no run, short, outside off, looks for a reverse shot, but is beaten
170.4

Brathwaite to Rahane, SIX, and Rahane has the stakes on. This one has packed a punch. Down the wicket, some room between him and the ball, allowing him to swing his bat, and then loft it over long-on

Brathwaite to Yadav, 1 run, fired into the pads, helped along for a single to long leg

There is no pint declaring right now if it is going to rain shortly. So may as well get some more runs

Chase to Yadav, FOUR, what a drop. Cummins has let through a sitter. Yadav slugs one like a wrestler, across the line. There is a deep midwicket just for that. Cummins is right behind this flat chance. It looks like an open and shut case until it pops out of his grasp to go for four
169.5

Chase to Yadav, FOUR, quick ball, into the pads, Yadav gives it his all in the sweep, gets a thick top edge for four towards long leg

Flood lights coming on. It is quite dark out there

Chase to Rahane, 1 run, slow offbreak, into the pads, pushed into the leg side for a single. "Come, there are only two balls left." That is the call

Chase to Rahane, no run, defends a length ball
169.2

Chase to Rahane, FOUR, Rahane gets lucky. The edge brings him the hundred. He defends an offbreak, which doesn't turn, and edges it. Blackwood at first slip has moved to his right, and the ball goes to his left for four. Rahane raises his arms, and the balcony is on its feet
