West Indies Fight Back in 2nd Test
John Campbell and Shai Hope smashed unbeaten fifties as West Indies produced their most resolute session of the ongoing Test series.
At the Arun Jaitley Stadium, West Indies reached 173/2 in 49 overs, trailing India by 97 runs at stumps on day three of the second and final game.
- Campbell hit a career-best unbeaten 87.
- Hope broke his drought of fifties by hitting 66 not out.
- Campbell and Hope stitched an unbeaten 138-run stand – the first hundred-plus stand by West Indies in Tests this year.
This spirited response came after being under pressure for much of the tour due to their lack of fight in all departments.
From 35/2 at tea, the final session went wicketless and in the visitors’ favour.
