| 0.0 : Hello and welcome to the 3rd Test match between the West Indies and India at the Darren Sammy National Cricket Stadium, Gros Islet, St Lucia. |
| Just under half an hour to the start of play now, and we can tell you that Jason Holder won the toss for the West Indies and has chosen to bowl first. |
| India have made three changes from the previous Test match in Jamaica. Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja and Bhuvneshwar Kumar come into the team, with Pujara, Mishra and Yadav missing out. |
| For the West Indies, Alzarri Joseph comes in to make his Test debut, Bishoo being left out. And Chandrika is replaced by Leon Johnson at the top of the order. |
| West Indies pulled off a miraculous draw in the last Test to keep themselves in the series, and will hope to take momentum into this match. India still remain heavy favourites though, and rightfully so as they have dominated the series so far. |
| Stay tuned for the start of play in just a few minutes time. |

| We may have a delay start today. |
| We had a heavy shower in the morning at St Lucia but at present rain has stopped and covers are off the ground. |
| Their prime objective was to get off to a good start and they have succeeded in that. Now comes the consolidation part. |
| West Indies will be buoyed with their performance in the second innings of Kingston Test and it is showing in their performance. Even though the runs came at snail's pace yesterday, West Indies will not be too concerned about this. |
| West Indies, however, will need to maintain the same intensity today. Ideally they would like to bat only once, make a large total and put India under pressure. This is easier said than done though. |
| Even though two Indian batsmen scored hundreds yesterday, the day belonged to the hosts. First they dismissed India for 353 after the visitors were strongly placed at 5/339 and then ended the day at 1./107 |
| Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the day three of the third Test between West Indies and India. |
| That's it for today then, cheers for joining us and see you again tomorrow for Day 3 at Saint Lucia. Bye for now. |
| Earlier it was Ashwin and Saha with a double century stand that propelled India to their total of 353. West Indies fought back with some quick wickets to prevent the total from getting out of control, and we now have a very interesting game on our hands. |
| Stumps on Day 2 and this match is evenly poised, with the West Indies providing strong resistance with the bat to be 107/1 at the close of play. Brathwaite and Johnson put on a good opening stand of 59 and Bravo has also played well since coming in. |
| Dark clouds all over the ground and It is heavily overcast. Ground staff is on with super sopper and other equipments but drizzling is still on. Stay tuned for further updates. |
| Still there is no improvement, means more wait for us, stay tuned for the updates |
| Rain has eased out but ground is under the cover of dark clouds |
| outfield is very wet on various spots but luckily square is well protected |

| “It’s a good last day pitch. It’s hard and dry and as the day proceeds, spinners will have some help.†Says Dujon. |

| India well placed at the stage with a comfortable lead of 285 runs with 7 wickets in hands. It will be interesting to know when the declaration comes. |
| Hello and welcome back for the live coverage of the last day of the third Test between West Indies and India. |
| That’s all for the day. Hoping that you enjoyed the coverage, we take your leave. Do join us tomorrow, till then it’s good bye and take care. |
| But one thing is sure that if weather allows, it will be an exciting and interesting last day of the Test. |
| There will be a 98.0 overs game tomorrow and India may bat for 15.0 overs to make the lead more than 300 runs. |
| India are in a commanding position at this stage leading by 285 runs with 7 wickets in hands. West Indies bowled well to get three top batsmen at 72 but the unbeaten partnership of 85 runs between Rahane and Rohit put them on the front. |
| Brathwaite to Rahane, no run, turned well and played well by Rahane and that's the Stumps on day-4.. |
