India 427-4 after Jaiswal falls for 175 in West Indies Test
Skipper Shubman Gill powered India to 427-4 at lunch on day two of the second Test against the West Indies after opener Yashasvi Jaiswal was run out for 175 on Saturday.
The left-handed Jaiswal added just two to his overnight score when a mix-up with Gill got him back to the pavilion in the second over of the day at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium.
Gill, on 75, and wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel, on seven, were batting at the break after Nitish Kumar Reddy fell for 43 as the second wicket of the day.
India resumed on 318-2 with the home fans expecting Jaiswal's double century, but his departure left the weekend crowd stunned.
Attempting a single after pushing the ball to mid-off, Jaiswal set off, but Gill had his back towards the striker and was ball-watching, and wicketkeeper Tevin Imlach was quick to rattle the stumps.
Gill kept calm as he reached his second successive Test fifty with a boundary off pace spearhead Jayden Seales.
He put on 91 runs with Reddy, who survived a dropped catch on 20 when Anderson Phillip spilled an easy chance at mid-off to leave left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican frustrated.
Warrican finally had the batter caught out at long-on with his left-arm spin for his third wicket and celebrated with a fist pump.
Jaiswal was the hero on Friday after he registered his fifth 150-pus score in Tests and put on 193 runs for the second wicket with Sai Sudharsan, who made 87.
India elected to bat in their bid to sweep the two-match series after an innings victory in the opener.
