Skipper Rohit Sharma (68 batting, 163 balls) also curbed his natural stroke-making instinct for the better part to reach his 15th half-century in Test cricket as India are only four runs short of West Indies' first innings score of 150.

The Windsor Park pitch got even slower on the day with most of the deliveries stopping and coming onto the bat.
