Virat Kohli stole the show on Day 2 of the second Test before West Indies frustrated the Indian bowlers in the final session at the Queen's Park Oval in Trinidad on Friday.

Kohli ended the wait for his first away Test hundred since December 2018 as his 29th Test century put India in a commanding position. He stitched together a 159-run partnership with Ravindra Jadeja to consolidate India's innings after they lost four wickets within 61 runs in the second session of Day 1.

Virat Kohli scored 121 runs off 206 balls with the help of 11 boundaries before Alzarri Joseph caught the former short of his crease, courtesy of a direct throw from square leg.

West Indies had their tail up but Jadeja and Ravichandran Ashwin frustrated the Windies bowlers with half-centuries. While Jadeja scored 61, the veteran off-spinner chipped in with 56 runs as India posted 438 runs in their first innings.

Fast bowler Kemar Roach and left-arm spinner Jomel Warrican picked up three wickets apiece for the hosts.

In response, West Indies openers, Kraigg Brathwaite and Tagenarine Chanderpaul, frustrated India with a watchful half-century stand at the Queen's Park Oval.

India managed to end their resistance with Chanderpaul's dismissal but Brathwaite and Kirk McKenzie batted well to take the team to stumps on Day 2 at 86/1. West Indies currently trail by 352 runs.
