Ishant proved Gavaskar's word true, as he bowled India to an 11 runs lead !
His pace and bounce accounted for 6 West Indian scalps and he removed Edwards and Rampaul off successive balls, to bowl out West Indies for 190.
Earleir, India could only get one wicket before the pre lunch session, that of Chanderpaul, who was clean bowled by Mithun for 37. Then Sharma came back strongly into the game and finished with the great figures of 21.5 - 7 - 55 - 6 !
Ishant was born with Mercury and Moon exalted, in Vasumath Yoga, a yoga for prosperity. His Sun is powerful in the 4th. His Rahu is dominant on the Meridien, which endows him with professional skill. His Mars in the Eleventh makes him a very competitive individual.
Samuels was unconquered with 78 not out. He tried to redeem the West Indies, but Ishant was too smart for that ! The Indian openers played solidly in a tricky period and India are 23/0 !
Mihtun scalped two wickets for 34 and Praveen Kumar and Bajji took one wicket each.
Manuels threatened to go past India's 201, but Bajji had other plans. He induced Baugh to drive and he was promptly held in the slips by a diving Dravid. The 43 run partnership between Sammy ( 15 ) and Samuels was ended by Ishant, who trapped Sammy lbw with an inswinging delivery ! Then Ishant bowled WI out for 190, taking the last two wickets quick !
