KOLKATA: Vangipurappu Laxman and Mahendra Singh Dhoni completed centuries as India's batsmen racked up a huge first innings total against West Indies on the second day of the second Test at Eden Gardens on Tuesday.
The tourists then lost two quick wickets before bad light brought a premature end to the day's play to leave India firmly in the driving seat.
India, opting to bat first after winning the toss, declared their innings at 631 for seven, 3.2 overs after tea, with Laxman (176) and Ravichandran Ashwin (four) at the crease.
