12.23pm Another familiar tale of unfulfilled promise from West Indies. The Hope brothers made 97 between them, but there wasn't much else from the top order. Jason Holder and Rovman Powell came up with sprightly cameos, but the timing of Holder's dismissal, just when they were looking to up the scoring, set them back. Shami's rhythm was excellent right through and he was richly rewarded. Umesh had an off day, even though his final figures may not reflect it. He struggled for consistency early on. When the line was right, he was guilty of being too short. The spin twins Kuldeep and Jadeja were outstanding; they choked the runs in the middle overs to put immense pressure on the lower order. You'd think this is still India's game, but you'd only have to look as far back as two days ago to realise it could be tricky if India lose early wickets. Karthik will be back in the hot seat to kick off India's chase.

Yadav to Williams, no run, sees the batsman trying to make room and fires this wide outside off, he can't reach it.

Yadav to Williams, no run, caught in a tangle, tied into knots as he looks to pull. Lobs off the toe-end of the bat. Jadeja comes in all the way from point to catch, and ends up running across to square leg. What speed

Yadav to Powell, OUT, Pure pace. This is the short ball angling into the body, he looks to pull but the ball gets big on him and gloves it down leg to Dhoni. Handy knock

Yadav to Powell, 2 runs, swung away towards deep midwicket where a misfield by Rahane gives them a second

Yadav to Powell, no run, backs away to carve this over point, Umesh fires this wide. Lets it go. Expected this to be called wide but this was just inside the line

Yadav to Powell, SIX, clobbered over long-on. Too full, right in the slot and Powell was waiting deep inside the crease to manufacture the length. Once Umesh missed the yorker by a long way, this was right down his alley

    Sabina Park might possibly provide the best batting pitches in the Caribbean, but it has not been the luckiest ground for India. Can the ninth-ranked West Indies pull off a grand upset?
