KINGSTON, Jamaica (AP) Wriddhiman Saha fell to the final ball before lunch as India reached 425-6 on the third day of the second test against West Indies on Monday.

The Indian wicketkeeper was trapped leg before wicket for 47 after seamer Jason Holder's delivery kept low.

India added only 67 runs in the morning session after resuming on 358-5 with Saha on 17.

Ajinkya Rahane is 74 not out and remains India's biggest batting threat as the tourists look to score quickly amid threats of heavy rain.
