Mumbai, Nov 23: It was a dream come true for the batting side with their first six batsmen crossing the 50-run mark. Of the West Indies top and middle order, Darren Bravo stood out with a solid 166, his second consecutive ton against India. The visitors powered along to a formidable score of 575 for nine at stumps even as Indian skipper MS Dhoni completed 40 dismissals behind the wicket.

Take a look at Day 2’s story in numbers.

• Darren Bravo (166) scored his third Test hundred in his 13th Test – his second hundred in consecutive innings against India (he had made 136 in the second innings of the Kolkata Test). Bravo thus became the fifth West Indies batsmen to score hundreds in back to back innings against India in India after Everton Weekes, Basil Butcher, Garry Sobers and S Chanderpaul. Weekes, in fact, had scored hundreds in four consecutive innings.

• The hundred was Bravo’s third in his Test career. All three tons have come in the subcontinent – one in Bangladesh and two in India.

• Bravo, on 59, completed 1,000 runs in Test cricket becoming the 50th West Indies batsman to do so.

• Bravo's 166 is the third-highest score by a West Indies batsman against India at Wankhede Stadium after Clive Lloyd’s unbeaten 242 in 1974-75 and Alvin Kallicharran’s 187 in 1978-79.

• The third-wicket partnership of 164 runs between Bravo and Kirk Edwards is West Indies’ best for this wicket against India in India. The previous best was 129 between Foud Bacchus and Raphick Jumadeen at Kanpur in 1978-79.

• MS Dhoni surpassed Syed Kirmani's record tally of 36 dismissals against West Indies when he caught Kirk Edwards off the bowling of Ishant Sharma. Dhoni took his tally to 40 by the end of the day.

• Dhoni became only the second Indian wicketkeeper to effect five dismissals in an innings against West Indies after Kiran More who had effected five stumpings in the second innings of the Chennai Test in 1987-88.

• Incidentally, this was the 11th instance of an Indian ‘keeper making five dismissals in an innings. Dhoni has done this on five occasions.

• The first six West Indies batsmen all crossed 50. This provided only the fifth such instance in Test annals. Interestingly, three such instances have come against India. The details:

England (849) v West Indies Kingston 1929-30

Pakistan (699-5) v India Lahore 1989-90

India (633-5d) v Australia Kolkata 1997-98

Pakistan (599-7d) v India Karachi 2005-06

West Indies (575-9) v India Mumbai 2011-12

• West Indies, in fact, provided only the second instance of the first six batsmen scoring 60. The only other such instance was for India against Australia at Kolkata in 1997-98.

West Indies’ total of 575 for nine is their seventh highest against India in India.
