Hyderabad, Oct 14 (IANS) Riding on some top-class bowling, West Indies wrapped up India at 367 runs in their first innings at the Rajiv Gandhi international stadium here on Sunday.
Resuming the third day at 308/4, the hosts lost five wickets in quick succession before Ravichandran Ashwin (35) and Shardul Thakur (4 not out) added 28 runs for the last wicket.
Pacer and skipper Jason Holder returned with magical figures of 5/56 as he broke down the India lower middle order.
Ajinkya Rahane (80) fell early in the morning session after adding just five runs to his overnight score.

Gabriel finally performed the last rites as he bowled out Ashwin as India managed to take a 56-run lead in reply to West Indies first innings total of 311 runs.
