Mohammed Siraj turned the screws on the West Indies with the second new ball on Sunday as he bagged a five-wicket haul to help bowl out the hosts for 255 inside the first session of Day 4 of the ongoing second Test at Port of Spain.

Siraj bagged his second five-for in Tests and finished with a career-best 5 for 60 from 23.4 overs.

Debutant seamer Mukesh Kumar and Ravindra Jadeja picked a couple of wickets each while Ravichandran Ashwin got one for the visitors.

India had managed 438 in their first innings thanks to Virat kohli's 121 and now have a lead of 183 runs.
