West Indies managed just one wicket as India continued their fightback in the second session on the opening day of the first Test here Thursday.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

At the tea interval \u2013 taken early due to a sharp shower \u2013 the visitors were 134 for four with Ajinkya Rahane unbeaten on 50 and Hanuma Vihari on 18.<\/p>\n

The only casualty of the session was opener KL Rahul who was dismissed for 44 after resuming from lunch unbeaten on 37.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

He faced 97 balls and struck five fours before feathering a leg-side catch to wicketkeeper Shai Hope off part-time off-spinner Roston Chase, on the cusp of the first hour.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

However, Rahane remained solid and so far put on a critical 41 for the fifth wicket with Vihari. He reached his 18th half-century in Tests just before the rains arrived when he punched seamer Miguel Cummins to cover for a couple.<\/p>\n

He has faced 122 deliveries and struck seven fours while Vihari has counted two fours in a 37-ball knock.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Seamer Kemar Roach has been the best bowler with two for 24 after accounting for\u00a0 right-handers Mayank Agarwal (5) and Cheteshwar Pujara (2) in the fifth over of the morning, as India slipped to 25 for three after being sent in.<\/p>\n
