Washington Sundar demonstrated his quality on Day 3 of India’s second Test against the West Indies at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, bowling a stunning delivery to dismiss the promising Alick Athanaze on the stroke of tea.
Athanaze, who scored the most runs for the West Indies in their first innings, produced a fantastic shot to start the second innings with a boundary. However, in the 15th over, Sundar delivered a superb delivery that drifted in with the angle from around the wicket, drawing the batsman forward. However, after pitching, the ball twisted past Athanaze’s defence and struck the off-stump. The Caribbean batter appeared bewildered, having done little wrong but still having to walk the great distance back to the dressing room.
This was Washington Sundar first wicket in the match. In the first innings, he bowled 13 overs and conceded 41 runs without picking up a wicket.

Earlier in the day, India dismissed the West Indies for 248 in their first innings on the back of a brilliant bowling performance. Kuldeep Yadav was the pick of the bowlers, accounting for five wickets in 26.5 overs, giving away 82 runs. He found good support from Ravindra Jadeja, who bagged a three-for. Meanwhile, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj chipped in with a wicket each.
India decided to enforce the follow-on. Since then, the West Indies have put forth a significantly better batting effort. John Campbell brought up his half-century off just 69 balls. The tourists’ first target will be to wipe out the deficit.
