India moved toward a series-clinching victory Wednesday with West Indies trailing by 283 runs and only seven wickets left in its second innings at stumps on the third day of the second test at Eden Gardens.

West Indies reached 195-3 after being asked to follow on having earlier been bowled out for 153 in reply to India's 631-7 declared. Adrian Barath scored 62 and Kirk Edwards 60 in a 93-run stand for the second wicket, but both were eventually dismissed by fast bowler Ishant Sharma.

Darren Bravo (38) and Shivnarine Chanderpaul (21) were the not out batsmen at the close. India won the first test by five wickets last week. The third and final test in Mumbai starts next Tuesday.
