India remained on course for a 2-0 series sweep after enforcing the follow-on but West Indies produced a much better batting display in their second innings to reach 173-2 on day three of the second and final test on Sunday.

Beaten inside three days in the series opener in Ahmedabad, West Indies folded for 248 in the first innings conceding a huge lead of 270 at Arun Jaitley Stadium.

The tourists rediscovered their stomach for fight in their second innings with opener John Campbell, batting on 87, proving neither the pitch nor the Indian attack was unplayable.

Shai Hope was batting on 66 at stumps with the tourists, still 97 behind, hoping to avoid a second successive innings defeat.

India have been in the ascendancy since amassing 518-5 before declaring their first innings on Saturday
