In a dramatic turn of events on the second day of the second cricket Test between India and West Indies, Yashasvi Jaiswal, who had scored a century on the opening day, was run out early in the morning session. Jaiswal, who had resumed his innings at 173 not out, was dismissed for 175 runs off 258 balls after a miscommunication with Shubman Gill. The young batsman had struck 22 fours in his impressive innings. Despite this setback, India continued to dominate, reaching 427-4 at lunch on Saturday. Gill remained unbeaten on 75 runs, with Dhruv Jurel (7 not out) providing support. Nitish Reddy also contributed with a quick 43 off 54 balls. India, leading the two-match series 1-0 after a comprehensive victory in the first Test in Ahmedabad, has maintained its dominance over West Indies, who have not won a Test against India since 2002. Jaiswal’s dismissal occurred on the eighth ball of the morning when he was sent back too late by Gill, and Tagenarine Chanderpaul’s accurate throw from mid-off caught him short of the crease. The pair had added 74 runs for the third wicket before the unfortunate run-out.
