India clinch series after Harbhajan strikes 

CHENNAI: Off-spinner Harbhajan Singh grabbed three wickets in an over on Sunday to set India up for a series-clinching eight-wicket win over West Indies in the second test. Set only 81 after West Indies were dismissed for 229 in their second innings, India coasted to victory less than an hour after lunch on the fourth day with rain threatening to hold up their victory charge. 

Harbhajan had earlier turned the game around with his breakthrough three-wicket over after left-arm paceman Zaheer Khan had dismissed danger-man Ramnaresh Sarwan for 78. West Indies, 186 for four overnight, lost their last six wickets for 21 runs. 

Khan had a morning spell of 4.4-2-6-3. India won the first test in Mumbai by an innings and 112 runs. The final test will be played in Calcutta from October 30-November 3.
