The Indian pace attack exposed the opposition's technical frailties and they will be gunning for more in the second game. It is unlikely that India will be tinkering with their playing XI after a big win even though Pant's form has been a bit of a concern of late.
With veteran Wriddhiman Saha back in the dressing room, Pant can ill-afford to take things for granted, especially the kind that one saw in the second innings of the first Test.
For West Indies, there hasn't been much to write home about as none of their players even got a half-century in two innings.
Toss Update
West Indies have won the toss and they will be bowling first. There are few changes to the Windies side: all-rounder Rahkeem Cornwall makes debut and replaces Miguel Cummins. Jahmar Hamilton replaces Shai Hope.
“We are gonna field first. There is a bit of moisture here. So we will try to get into India's middle-order early. We have a couple of changes. We have to focus on the roles and not the results. We have to be a lot more disciplined. The last time we played here Roston Chase got a 5-for,” said Windies skipper Jason Holder.
On the other hand, India will take the field with an unchanged XI.
“It is going to be challenging. I think the first session is going to be tough like Antigua. We are pretty happy to bat first. In and out of the breaks we need to be more focused. The 70-80 run partnerships need to be bigger. The bowling has been outstanding, not much to add there,” said Indian skipper Virat Kohli.
Here are the teams:
India: Lokesh Rahul, Mayank Agarwal, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli(c), Ajinkya Rahane, Hanuma Vihari, Rishabh Pant(w), Ravindra Jadeja, Ishant Sharma, Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah
West Indies: Kraigg Brathwaite, John Campbell, Shamarh Brooks, Darren Bravo, Shimron Hetmyer, Jahmar Hamilton(w), Rahkeem Cornwall, Roston Chase, Jason Holder(c), Kemar Roach, Shannon Gabriel
