Campbell’s Maiden Century Helps West Indies Push India Toward Batting Again in 2nd Test
John Campbell scored his maiden Test century while Shai Hope remained unbeaten on 92 as West Indies reduced India's lead to 18 runs, extending the second Test to Day 4.
- On Monday, West Indies reached 252/3 at lunch at Arun Jaitley Stadium, with John Campbell scoring a maiden Test century and Shai Hope unbeaten on 92.
- India cricket team declared at 518/5, creating a follow-on after bowling West Indies out for 248, while the dry, turning Arun Jaitley Stadium pitch shaped Shubman Gill's decision to enforce the follow-on.
- The opener reached his milestone with a dramatic six off Jadeja, scoring 115 off 199 balls and sharing a 177-run partnership with Shai Hope.
- With the second new ball due, India may have to bat again after enforcing the follow-on, but they remain overwhelming favourites to complete a 2-0 series victory.
- Historically, Campbell's ton stands out for the West Indies as he became the first opener to score a Test century in India in 23 years since Wavell Hinds in 2002.
