So, here we are back guys to satiate your hunger for the daily dose of fun. I know, sitting through the day and watching an India-West Indies Test match is not yours cup of tea. But, why are we here then? Here is 10 things that I am sure, you have missed watching even if you were attentive.

Substitute wicketkeeper comes in for West Indies

Jahmar Hamilton took over the keeping duties as Shane Dowrich got injured and got some medical attention. This happened for the second time in International cricket after ICC brought the new substitute rule. The first wicketkeeper who got substituted was Dinesh Kartik who came in place of Parthiv Patel in the Jo' berg Test against South Africa.

Frustrating streak continues for KL Rahul

This was the 9th consecutive innings where KL Rahul was bowled/LBW. A good length in-swinging delivery has always troubled Rahul and this time again the opener had no answer to this similar kind of delivery.

Shai Hope misses a chance to dismiss Prithvi Shaw

West Indies got a chance to dismiss Prithvi Shaw who was playing at 48, but Shai Hope at slip puts down the opportunity.

This is mind-boggling! Have a look at these numbers

The picture says it all. Virat kohli has an incredible average of 65.95 as a captain. The Perfect example of "leading by example".

Good Call by Kohli! And his reaction was even better

Rahane could have been in trouble but kohli denied the second Rahane. Kohli’s explanation for a sudden call with that wry smile was just priceless.

How painful was that?

A 79kmph googly delivered by Bishoo hit Rahane’s ribs as the batsman missed the pull.

Raston Chase hits his 1st Test ton outside caribbean

There were questions raised about his place in the team and he answered the haters in style.

Good Times!

Virat kohli and Ashwin were enjoying the moment sitting in the pavilion. Rahane and Pant were doing exactly what they are supposed to do and probably that is the reason why our captain is so relaxed.

A very loose display of bowling

Back leg no ball by Gabriel. When Gabriel controls his front leg, his back one deceives him.

West Indies conceded 19 Extras in the 81 overs that they have bowled today.

#Fact

Umesh Yadav registers his best record in Test cricket (6/88) and became only the second Indian pacer after Javagal Srinath (6/45) to take 6 wickets in a single innings of a Test match at home.
