Windies appear to be in a happier position as day 2 comes to a close. Despite India amassing a total of 438 runs, the Windies openers showed great resilience and stability, forming a solid partnership of 71 runs for the first wicket. However, Chanderpaul's impatience led to his dismissal by a fuller ball from Jadeja. Nevertheless, McKenzie and Brathwaite performed admirably after that setback.
Looking ahead, India will face a demanding workload on day 3 due to the slower nature of the wicket. It is likely that their spinners, Ashwin and Jadeja, will shoulder the majority of the bowling responsibilities. Patience is emphasized as the key to success on this pitch, a point highlighted by Kohli as well. The Windies' patience paid off, preventing India from reaching the 500-run mark.
Kirk McKenzie has displayed a positive attitude at the crease and will be hoping to add more runs to his name on day 3. On the other hand, Brathwaite has a tried-and-tested method that has been effective for him, and he intends to continue wearing down the opposition during the upcoming day.

India completely dominated the West Indies after being put into bat. The West Indies had a forgettable session as they struggled to create any opportunities, except for one dropped catch by Athanaze. The pitch was slow, and the West Indies' bowling lacked effectiveness and control. Jaiswal and Rohit seemed very comfortable and didn't face much difficulty in their batting. The West Indies' attempts to make the ball rise from the pitch were unsuccessful, and Jaiswal and Rohit easily handled it. Only Warrican looked decent with his bowling, but overall, the West Indies didn't pose a real threat. It's clear that the decision to bowl first didn't work in their favour. The situation doesn't look good for the West Indies, and it's likely that India will continue their dominance after the lunch break.
