5.30pm Our man Deiva is at the ground, and has written about Cuttack's love affair for cricket. Apparently, there's a Thala Dhoni mania.
And if you're a fan of Indian sports at large, you'd be delighted to know Sunil Chhetri, Mary Kom, PV Sindhu and many, many others, Indian athletes put up several record-breaking numbers this decade.
5.25pm India have quite a chase on their hands to win this series. It's fair to say dew will only help them along the way, but should West Indies nip out a couple of early wickets, this will be far from easy. That the game has transformed to this is because of that magical partnership between Pooran and Pollard. They turned 137 for 3 in 30 overs to a magnificent, imposing 315.
Pooran is having a chat with Ian Bishop for BCCI. "Satisfied, wanted to build a partnership till over number 40 and then look for the big hits. Disappointed to miss out on a hundred, but I wasn't thinking about the landmark. It's a good wicket so you have to just give yourself a fair chance, the boundaries are big. Would like to think we've got enough."
