2.41pm Blown away. West Indies have been blown away after choosing to bat first on a damp pitch. Kohli said he would have bowled first anyway. Ashwin took his 18th five-for in his 34th Test as the pitch turned a lot. remains to be seen if it was due to early moisture of if it will continue to turn. Blackwood and Samuels applied themselves, but not for long enough. Some ordinary umpiring might have given West Indies about 30 runs too many here. Ian Gould missed four wickets in two sessions

There might be another record here: 130 of these 196 runs have come in boundaries

By the way, this is also tea. See you back in 20 minutes

Mishra to Gabriel, OUT, all over now. It had to happen sooner rather than later. Gabriel swings across the line again, is not to the pitch of the ball, and the massive edge results in a skier for Kohli at short cover

ST Gabriel c Kohli b Mishra 15 (25m 23b 2x4 1x6) SR: 65.21

Mishra to Gabriel, no run, sharp chance, dropped. Short of a length, legbreak, takes the edge on a hard cut. The edge flies high to Rahane's left. Can't hold on to it
