Toss: India A
The India A openers got their side of to a good start, adding 69, before Kambli entered and took control.
He was eventually out for 153, having set his team up for a huge first innings score.
With most of the other batsmen contributing, and the last wicket pair adding 61, India A made over 500, putting immense pressure on the West Indies A batting lineup to avoid the follow on.
The West Indies A pace bowlers tried hard, but the spinners were poor and again unable to transfer their form from the tour games into the 4 day matches.
