NEW DELHI (AP) — John Campbell put up a career-best 87 not out on Sunday as West Indies battled on in its second innings of the second test against India, despite the hosts enforcing a follow-on.

Campbell’s previous test best was 68 against New Zealand in 2020, and on a slow-turning pitch at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, he came up with a timely knock to keep the Indian attack at bay.

It was West Indies’ best batting performance of the series — a wicket-less session for the first time in two tests — and reached 173-2 (49 overs) at stumps.

Campbell faced 145 deliveries, while Shai Hope reached 66 not out. The duo put on 138 off 207 balls for the unbeaten third-wicket partnership, West Indies’ highest partnership for any wicket in seven tests in 2025.
