    1st Test: Rahul’s Unbeaten Ton, Gill’s Fifty Give India 56-run Lead Over West Indies

    Narendra Modi Stadium: In-form opener KL Rahul’s serene unbeaten 11th Test hundred and Shubman Gill’s composed fifty helped India tighten their grip on the first Test against the West Indies by taking a lead of 56 runs at lunch on day two’s play at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Friday.

    India added 97 runs in the morning session for the loss of just Gill and reached 218/3 in 67 overs at lunch interval. Rahul, who resumed from 53, survived a close call in the first over when an edge off Jayden Seales flew between slip and keeper.

    West Indies’ decision to go defensive early - fielding just one slip - proved costly, as Rahul capitalised on the reprieve and brought up just his second Test century at home. He walked off at lunch unbeaten on 100 off 192 balls, laced with 12 fours and has the company of wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel, who was steady on 14 not out.
