Kingston: Roston Chase scored a fantastic century that helped West Indies pull out an improbable draw against India in the second Test of the four-match series at Sabina Park, Kingston, Jamaica on Wednesday. Terming it to be a great feeling, Chase said though his aim is to be equally good in both batting and bowling, he preferred batting more.

“It’s a great feeling that I could help draw a match for my team after having fallen behind by a long way. My aim is to be equally good in both batting and bowling, but I prefer batting more. The captain asked the players to show some fight. We just went with the mindset that we were at war, and we can't die today. Last night myself and Dowrich had a conversation if one of us gets a hundred, we will be safe,” said Chase, who was awarded man-of-the match for his resilient show.

Meanwhile, Indian skipper Virat Kohli said, “It was a testing day. That's what Test cricket is all about. Pity we lost most of yesterday. That's no excuse. Credit to the way West Indies played today. When you lose a Test and are behind in the second, it takes something special to save the match. Our bowlers tried their best. We created some chances, but they didn't go to hand. The first four days the wicket was very active. The hardness of the ball was a factor. On these pitches when the ball is not hard enough, play goes dead for 25-30 overs. Pretty pleased with the effort the boys put in.”

West Indies skipper said, “Fully enjoyed this. We asked the guys to show fight. We got a really good partnership between Blackwood and Roston. After that Dowrich came in and showed the character we asked for. It was about taking it ball by ball. It was just about showing character. Wickets were hard to come by. We had to show a lot of patience. In the last Test we didn't do that and leaked boundaries. This Test - hot and humid - must have been really hard for all the bowlers. It was just outstanding batting today.”
