Finally, the visitors got a hang of the conditions in India as they fought well in their second innings. John Campbell and Shai Hope were the standout performers for the visitors as both of them hit brilliant centuries to delay India's win and ensure the hosts bat again. 

Kuldeep Yadav continued his good form with the ball as he picked up three wickets in the second essay after having scalped a fifer in the first innings. He finished with eight wickets for the match. On the final day, the visitors would still be eyeing a wicket or two to put some pressure on the Indian batting line-up.
