2:15pm Out comes Gayle, alongside Lewis. No one has played as many ODIs for West Indies as him, and in this 300th game, he could also become the West Indies batsman with more runs. Here we go.

Meanwhile, the Indian women's rugby team had a memorable run at the Asia Rugby Sevens Trophy, narrowly missing out on gold in the final, but putting down a marker for the future. Here's more on that.
1.43pm So finally the innings comes to an end, delayed partly by the rain break. Virat Kohli's 42nd ODI ton was chanceless while Shreyas Iyer's 71 should give him - and the team management - some confidence on what India's ODI line-up should look like in the future. For West Indies, the way Holder and Brathwaite bowled at the death has ensured that India could not reach 300. But the highest successful chase at this ground is 272... so if West Indies are to win, it will be in record-breaking style. We'll be back in 20 or so minutes with the chase. Till then, read about the records that Kohli broke today
last ball of the innings.

P: "@nabeel no way. pitch has already started to assist spin. 20 overs from world-class ind spinners to deal with. we are winning this comfortably"
Pratik : "Until you get Gayle out, no score is enough."
Sushanimator: "@Nabeel - On the contrary I feel India are are 50 runs too many. Slow pitch and pressure chasing considered."
