[Watch] Ishan Kishan Grabs a Sensational Catch as Mohammed Siraj Removes Jason Holder

After toiling hard on the field without much success on day 3, India got a dream start to the fourth day of the ongoing second Test against West Indies. The two Indian seamers Mohammed Siraj and Mukesh Kumar capitalised on the second new ball and chipped in crucial wickets regularly. Siraj, in particular, showcased his skills for the umpteenth time, running through the Windies lower order and restricting them to a paltry 255 in their first innings. 

The collapse was triggered by Mukesh Kumar, who got rid of Alick Athanaze in the very first over of the day. Siraj, who was introduced into the attack in the next over, immediately stood up to skipper Rohit Sharma's expectations, dismissing the well-set Jason Holder. 

Siraj bowled a classic out-swinger, drawing Holder forward and inducing an outside-edge in this process. However, a fair share of credit must be given to Ishan Kishan, who took a sharp catch behind the stumps by diving forward. 

After Holder's departure, West Indies didn't have an answer to Siraj's rampage, as the seamer from Hyderabad destroyed the hosts with a spectacular five-wicket haul. 

In response, India have got a positive start to their innings, placed at 21 for no loss in just two overs as of writing. The visitors have already secured a massive lead of 204 runs, and they are expected to add much more to it with ten wickets in hand.
