India have won their second Test against West Indies by 7 wickets in New Delhi.
After a solid display in the first innings, both with the bat and ball, the home side imposed a Follow-On, inviting the tourists to bat again.
However, they display a lot of grit and determination this time around, and managed to pose a decent target to chase down. With an early setback close to the end of Day 4, things could have gone awry for India, but on the final day, they strolled to a comfortable victory.
IND vs WI Test: KL Rahul Scores 50
KL Rahul looked in great touch this series. During the first Test match, he notched a 100, and has now secured a 50 while chasing the score set by West Indies in the final fixture. He finished the match on 58, sealing the chase with a four.
His innings were instrumental in calming things down after Yashasvi Jaiswal's early departure last evening. He has now scored 20 half centuries, and 11 centuries in this format.
Sai Sudharsan had accompained him on the other end for quite a while in the chase, bowing out earlier today on 39 off 76. In the first innings of the second Test match, he scored a brilliant 87.
Shubman Gill, who scored 129 in the first innings of this match, and a 50 in the first Test, joined him at number 4, but departed on just 13 runs. It was then over to Dhruv Jurel and KL Rahul, who marched on to the winning runs.
