West Indies Live to Fight Another Day but India Remain in Control of Second Test
John Campbell and Shai Hope's unbeaten 138-run partnership reduced India's lead to 97 runs, preventing an innings defeat and extending the Test to a fourth day.
- On October 12, 2025, John Campbell and Shai Hope reached 173/2 in 49 overs at stumps at Arun Jaitley Stadium, producing the series' most resolute session to keep West Indies alive.
- After India declared 518-5 and West Indies were bowled out for 248, they were asked to follow on with India holding a first-innings lead of 270.
- Campbell and Hope combined to post an unbeaten third-wicket partnership of 138 off 207 balls, with John Campbell scoring a career-best 87 not out and Shai Hope finishing 66 not out after reaching his fifty off 80 balls.
- With the deficit under 100 and two set batters, West Indies still need 97 runs to force India to bat again on the fourth day.
- Although India's victory appears likely, the Campbell-Hope counter-attack gives West Indies renewed confidence before their upcoming New Zealand tour despite a 26 Tests drought since 2002.
