2nd Test: Campbell Makes 115 As WI Reach 252/3 At Lunch On Day 4, Trail India By 18 Runs

Arun Jaitley Stadium: John Campbell hit 115 – his maiden Test century – as West Indies continued their spirited resurgence by reaching 252/3 in 78 overs at lunch and trail India by just 18 runs at lunch on day four of the second and final Test at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Monday.

Campbell’s century is also the first Test hundred by a West Indies opener in India in 23 years, with the last being hit by Wavell Hinds in 2002. Though Campbell fell to Ravindra Jadeja after getting his first Test hundred in his 50th innings and his 177-run stand with Shai Hope coming to an end, the latter held fort to remain unbeaten on 92 and is eight runs away from reaching his century.

With the pitch slowing down, Hope has been well-supported by Roston Chase (23 not out off 34 balls), as the morning session belonged to West Indies, who added 79 runs for the loss of just Campbell. With the second new ball due in two overs, the post-lunch session promises further intrigue, as India now face the prospect of batting again after enforcing the follow-on.
