Transcript
00:00We are at the Arun J. Etli Stadium here in New Delhi.
00:13It's the IDFC First Bank Test Series.
00:15This is the second test between two teams that go back a long way and have a shared history.
00:21India versus the West Indies.
00:24Right, the toss a little while ago.
00:25Rostun Chase and Shuman Gill.
00:26So, Shuman Gill won the toss for the first time as captain of India in a test match and he chose to bat.
00:35It's also time to say very good morning to Ian Bishop and Sunil Gavassar.
00:42Here's the first ball.
00:47It's down the leg side.
00:53Wait, wait, wait.
00:54And first runs.
00:57First runs of a pretty good ball actually.
01:03It's a strong wrist position even though that front leg and that left side collapses with Anderson Phillip.
01:09To the onside, bit of a chase.
01:17They'll come back for two.
01:18It's going to be a good contest this because he's getting the swing.
01:21He's kept cover open and Kiel Rahul plays a very sumptuous cover drive.
01:29Just beats the keeper.
01:31First time the ball will reach the boundary.
01:33Finds the gap, threads the needle for four.
01:41They've been trying to get him there.
01:43He's got one up over the bowler.
01:45Fourteen for no loss.
01:51Lovely punch.
01:52And something which we saw a lot from VVS Luxman this time.
01:58It's a modern day Kiel Rahul.
02:05Yeah, overcompensating.
02:07It's been flicked through the onside.
02:10Effort, but in vain.
02:12Great effort from Phillip.
02:13But two boundaries to finish that over.
02:17Twenty-five without loss.
02:23Nicely tucked away.
02:25Nicely tucked away for four.
02:32Wow.
02:34He almost took out Anderson Phillip.
02:38And he gets four.
02:39Four.
02:43What a lovely drive.
02:49Just a tad overpitched.
02:50And that is all that Kiel Rahul is looking for.
02:58Classical.
03:02Perhaps a little bit more in it than the one Kiel Rahul play of Graves last over.
03:08Nice shot.
03:13Jamel Warrickon.
03:16Perhaps went down in installments in trying to get a hand to it.
03:20Boundary starting to nip in.
03:29Sumptuous.
03:31First six of the match.
03:33And the follow-through of the bat from Kiel Rahul there was stylish.
03:37All gone.
03:40It's spun.
03:41And Kiel Rahul looks back at the pitch with suspicion.
03:46Jamel Warrickon has him for the second time in two test matches.
03:50That has spun.
03:52It's not turned so far.
03:54But this one has either hit a crack or hit the seam.
03:57And just turned enough to beat Kiel Rahul.
03:59Have a look at this ball.
04:00Just turned in front of him.
04:01And quite a bit of turn as well.
04:03Tevin Imlak.
04:04He isn't going to miss out on that one.
04:06And Kiel Rahul is absolutely shocked.
04:09West Indies are elated.
04:11India lose their first wicket.
04:16With the score on 58.
04:18Kiel Rahul goes for a good-looking 38.
04:2238.
04:28Off the mark nicely.
04:30Got a gift from Warrickon.
04:33Thank you, says Sain.
04:39Super off the back foot is Jayeswal.
04:41They have it hit against the turn.
04:50Take three.
04:51But I'm sure they won't have another look at it.
04:57Oh, lovely.
04:59Lovely shot.
05:00The first one might have been a bit of a gift.
05:03But this one is a boundary that's earned and well played.
05:0672 for one.
05:08I think he's a better bowler than those numbers suggest.
05:11Not if he's bowling that one.
05:14Good use of the feed, but it's way too cool.
05:16And also his bowling arm nicely punched.
05:23Again, an exquisite piece of work from Sai Sudarshan.
05:29We saw one through mid-on.
05:30This one between covers and mid-off.
05:32He's very good with that shot.
05:40As he gets set, you'll see him playing many more shots like those, Jayeswal.
05:44It's been an unusual reading from him.
05:46He started really slow.
05:50Shot cut away.
05:53Jayeswal, after lunch, is on the move.
05:59Again shot.
06:01Again cut.
06:01And the result is, again, the same.
06:05Second boundary in a couple of balls.
06:06And that brings up the hundred as well for India.
06:13At times, when there's low bounds.
06:16But this one is going to bring up his half century.
06:19Because he's timed this ball beautifully through covers.
06:21And Jayeswal, in a span of just four deliveries post-lunch, romps to his 50.
06:26He got out to a similar shot, but that time he played the pull.
06:35This one was the flick.
06:36And he gets a boundary as well soon after lunch.
06:38This one again full.
06:39And it looks like Jayeswal is very comfortable playing Jayden Seals at the moment.
06:49Getting a lot of hit-me-balls and he's saying thank you.
06:51There we go.
06:59Strong cover drive.
07:01And Sai Sudarshan is a quick runner between wickets.
07:06Big hundreds.
07:06Nice little cut shot.
07:11And he finds the gap as well.
07:14Just when he thought there's not going to be too many runs.
07:16And Rosten Chase is going to finish the over quietly.
07:19He doesn't.
07:19Gives away a boundary.
07:20Slightly short.
07:26But what Sai Sudarshan is so good at is off the back foot.
07:29He's able to punch a ball, which not many people can do with such consistency.
07:35Another boundary to Sai Sudarshan.
07:41And when you go much fuller, this is what Sai Sudarshan is really good at.
07:46Got a good flow with the bat.
07:50Real poor delivery.
07:54Jamal Warrickon.
07:57A gift to Sai Sudarshan, which has been easily put away.
08:05Swept hard.
08:06And there is no protection out there.
08:08So a fine shot from Sai Sudarshan.
08:11Gets him a boundary.
08:15Lovely drive through the offside.
08:17Should have been stopped.
08:18But eventually, what the bowler will have against his name is that it went for a four.
08:29Nicely driven.
08:30All along the ground.
08:32Once again, it's Yasha Swija as well.
08:35Stylishly done two.
08:36That's the 50 moment.
08:43His second half century in test match cricket.
08:46First in India.
08:48And that will relieve a lot of pressure of Sai Sudarshan.
08:51The lengths are not suggestive of that.
08:57That's the problem.
08:58The moment they've been fooled, they've been driven.
09:00They've been driven handsomely like on this occasion.
09:03By Yasha Swija as well.
09:05Played very fine this time.
09:11At last, it was a short ball.
09:13But he was in control of it.
09:14Man on the boundaries about 45.
09:16So, the moment he played it finer, he went to the boundaries.
09:20Got into the 90s.
09:25Oh, just over.
09:28Just over.
09:28And there was nobody behind.
09:31I guess you've got to give it to the batter and say he was aiming to go over.
09:3799 nodded.
09:38Left arm spinner in front of him.
09:39Just like that.
09:43100 number 7.
09:46For Yasha Swija as well.
09:47100.
09:49Very, very well crafted.
09:51Respecting the conditions.
09:53The opposition.
09:54Backing himself.
09:55Staying in there.
09:56And saying, if I stand in long enough, you can't get me out.
10:00And he now has 700s.
10:01Only Graham Smith as an opener.
10:04Had seven international test match hundreds before the age of 24.
10:08But well played, young man.
10:09Very well played.
10:10Your talent was undeniable.
10:12We've seen your temperament on show.
10:18Put down.
10:20Put down after getting there.
10:22Was in the air for a while.
10:30Timing.
10:32Superb.
10:33He's got that gift.
10:35Keep talking about Sai Sudarshan and the vote of confidence
10:39that he's got from the selectors and the team management.
10:46Nicely played.
10:46That is superbly played.
10:48That does well there, Jadon Seals.
10:57That good old school late cut.
10:58Oh, that's a cracking shot.
11:07Way too much room outside of Stump.
11:10And it punishes it brutally.
11:11And the scoring begins almost immediately.
11:20Jadon Seals.
11:21Jadon Seals goes on to 115.
11:27Beats the fielder at Midon.
11:28That'll ease the nerves a little bit into the 80s.
11:32Close and given.
11:40Was a confident appeal from Jamel Warrickon.
11:43And the switching ends has worked for the Western A's.
11:47We'll have to wait and see if the review is taken.
11:50He's gone for it.
11:57He's taken it.
11:59Unless he's got an inside edge.
12:02It looks quite difficult to overturn that decision.
12:06Pitching outside off.
12:11Impact in line.
12:13Wickets hitting.
12:15Richard.
12:17Can stay with your original decision about.
12:19Stand by.
12:22You're on screen.
12:23Signal now.
12:25Decision confirmed.
12:27After India took the review.
12:29Moment loss for Sai Sudarshan.
12:32To get to three figures.
12:33But the West Indies will find motivation with this dismissal.
12:41Fine innings.
12:42Coming to an end.
12:4487 for Sudarshan.
12:46251 for two.
12:51Tug leg side.
12:53That is the confidence of the captain.
12:56Gets off the mark with a boundary.
12:57Sweetly driven.
13:06The line was wide.
13:08And Jaisal being very well set.
13:11Made no mistake.
13:15Having said that.
13:17There he goes.
13:18Wide open space is there.
13:23Sledging.
13:23I think me and Bish are going to form a team.
13:26Looking to go through the offside.
13:28There's nobody there at all.
13:29The ball is going all by itself.
13:33And will eventually get to the boundary.
13:35And proof of an appetite that is unquestionable.
13:46Unquenched.
13:48Five now of his seven test match hundreds are 150 plus.
13:54And that is a young man who is willing to make the best of a good day.
14:04A bit of swing there inside half of the back.
14:11Three runs.
14:12And that's a good line to bowl.
14:20Gift accepted.
14:21Gift accepted.
14:24Boundary after 44 deliveries.
14:28And 300 comes up for India.
14:35Arican can't stop it.
14:38Jaisal continues on his merry way.
14:42It's been an outstanding day's test match batting for him.
14:51Continues to flow.
14:53And that's how he's paced his day.
14:55There are times when he's been very watchful.
14:58Then he'd branch out into aggression when he feels he has a grip on things.
15:03And he continues.
15:07Good hand on it.
15:08And Moe's reminded us that 10 of his 16 first class hundreds have been 150 plus.
15:18So this is not by accident what he's doing.
15:21Top shot.
15:27He waits for it.
15:28He waits for it.
15:30And he takes hold of it.
15:31Safely negotiated.
15:40A dominant day.
15:41Dominant in every sense.
15:43For India.
15:47Underlined by the bat of Yashas Vijay Swal.
15:51The 23-year-old from Sudhir Yawan in Uttar Pradesh via Mumbai once again has scored a daddy hundred
16:03with time for more when day two starts.
16:07A show of perseverance and patience and great skill.
16:133-18 for two.
16:15India.
16:16And clearly sparked Yashas Vijay Swal though.
16:20The man.
16:21Yeah, once again converting those starts.
16:24And somebody who's...
16:26He does feel very happy.
16:27The way he's gone about in a very young career for a young man.
16:31To churn out the kind of runs he has done.
16:34I think, as you rightly said, Bish looked pretty fresh after that knockoff 173.
16:39Kale Rao looked good for his 38 before a very good delivery from Warwick and got rid of him.
16:45Sai Sudarshan.
16:4513th shot of what would have been a very memorable hundred.
16:49One that spun into him.
16:51And he was a judged LBW.
16:55Toil.
16:55They toiled the West Indies.
16:57It was hard work in the conditions.
16:59Warwick and being the man to pick up the two wickets.
17:02With two very good deliveries it must be said.
17:04Two for 60 for him.
17:06And they've got much more work to try to put in on day two.
17:09One for 60 for a while.
17:10One for 60 for a while.
17:11One for 60 for a while.
17:12One for 60 for a while.
17:13One for 60 for a while.
17:14One for 60 for a while.
17:15One for 60 for a while.
17:16One for 60 for a while.
17:17One for 60 for a while.
17:18One for 60 for a while.
17:19One for 60 for a while.
17:20One for 60 for a while.
17:21One for 60 for a while.
17:22One for 60 for a while.
17:23One for 60 for a while.
17:24One for 60 for a while.
17:25One for 60 for a while.
17:26One for 60 for a while.
17:27One for 60 for a while.
