Laxman, Dravid put India in charge

HALF-CENTURIES from VVS Laxman and Rahul Dravid put India on top in the rain-hit second Test against the West Indies.

Laxman was unbeaten on 72 – his second half-century in the match – and Dravid was dismissed for 55, as the Indians reached 3-229 in their second innings for an overall lead of 240 on the rain-affected fourth day.

Laxman and Dravid, the visitors’ most decorated batsman, featured in three half-century stands that fortified the world No.1 Test team’s position.

Dravid added 63 for the second wicket with opener Abhinav Mukund and put on 65 for the third wicket with Laxman, who then shared an unbroken stand of 75 with Virat Kohli before the close.
