India vs Windies 2018: 2nd Test, Day 3 - Umesh Yadav Four-Wicket Haul Guides India to a 2-0 Win
Published - 14 Oct 2018, 07:10 PM | Updated - 23 Aug 2024, 03:03 AM

Team India fast bowler Umesh Yadav shone with the new ball as India chased down the target to seal the series 2-0 beating Windies by 10 wickets in the second innings of the second Test at Hyderabad.
Meanwhile, Umesh Yadav bagged four wickets while Ravindra Jadeja chipped in with three to set a target of 72 runs. Umesh leads the team out of the park as he ends with 10 for 133. Nothing from the openers, the middle-order batsmen threw it away and India were never in trouble after taking that handy lead. Sunil Ambris and Shai Hope managed to resist for a while as skittled Windies within two sessions.
However, Indian openers Prithvi Shaw and KL Rahul started the chase on a high dominating the Windies bowlers. They attacked the new ball bowlers to chase down the target within 16 overs with 10 wickets in hand.


Twin strikes in the 27th over – as the pacer went past the defence of Chase and Shane Dowrich – to pin Windies on the mat at 70 for 6. However, Windies lost the plot in the first session after they helped India extend the lead despite losing early wickets.
With sweeping the visitors, India will be high on confidence ahead of the start of the five-match ODI series.
Here is how the Twitter reacted as India edge towards victory on day three of the third Test at Hyderabad:

Top quality effort @y_umesh -To get 10 wickets in a match on a pitch which hardly had anything to offer for fast bowling is very special. Keep the rhythm going fella!

#WestIndies are so poor they shouldn't be allowed to travel and tour to tier 1 test playing nations until they sort themselves out. #INDvWI

Just feel if a team is struggling with issues far greater than just poor form we should let them play the format which gives them confidence and can give the opposition a run for their money… #INDvWI

Possibly the saddest thing in the history of #cricket is the decline of West Indies #INDvWI #INDvWI #WestIndies

Only 2 Indian pacers had taken a 10 wicket bag at home before today- Kapil Dev (twice) and Jagaval Srinath. Add Umesh Yadav to that list. #IndvWI

People, teams, nations…. Corporations. The last ones' seems settled on, deliberately. Great times to fail, people won't notice even….so many stories floating around as flotsam, jetsam. Windies' is jetsam. 🙂 🙂#INDvWI
