India v West Indies, 3rd Test, Mumbai, 2nd day | Bravo stars as West Indies pile on 575

Scoreboard:-
West Indies 575/9.
Bravo 166, Edwards 86, Powell 81, Samuels 61, Ashwin 4-154

Darren Bravo crafted his third hundred in four Tests to lead the way, while Kirk Edwards and Kieran Powell were left to rue missing centuries on a shirtfront at the Wankhede.

The tone for the day was set by Bravo, who caressed the first two deliveries of the morning between the bowler, Aaron, and mid-off for four. West Indies plundered 111 runs before lunch, after which India went completely on the defensive, spreading the field, and giving the part-timers, Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar, extended spells. The strategy reduced the boundaries but there was no flagging of the run-rate, as an untroubled West Indies marched towards 500.
