Team India have managed to set a target score of 419 runs in hopes of securing their first points in the two-match Test series against West Indies.  

India started day their day four action with a healthy lead of 260 runs.  But they lost skipper Virat Kohli(51) to Roston Chase's wicket delivery in the 73rd over.    

That loss did not cause the Blues too much harm as Hanuman Vihari came in to bat and settled in quickly.  

Ajinkya Rahane kept batting sensibly and scored his 10th Test century for India.  

Vihari also stepped up big time and scored his half-century on the day as the pair started building a formidable partnership between them.  

Towards the end of the innings, both Vihari and Rahane got dismissed in quick succession. Gabriel removed Rahane while batting on 102 whereas Windies skipper Jason Holder picked Vihari's wicket on 93.  

Rishabh Pant also made a brief appearance for India with the bat but his poor form for the national side continued as his poorly struck pull shot found the safe hands of Keemo Paul-- who came on as a substitute fielder for West Indies.  

India were 243/7 when Virat Kohli decided to call back his batsmen and handed over a target of 419 runs to the Windies to chase down.
