IND vs WI 1st Test Highlights: Ashwin Takes 7 For 71 As India Beat West Indies To Win 1st Test

Background

The Indian team finished Day 2 of the first Test vs West Indies in a commanding position, concluding at 312/2 with debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal batting on 143 and skipper Rohit Sharma scoring 103 on Thursday. Post getting a century, Jaiswal also became the seventeenth Indian batsman to score a hundred on Test debut. He also became the fourteenth Indian batter to get to the three figures mark in his debut innings in the Red ball format. Earlier, West Indies were restricted to just 150 runs in their first innings after winning the toss and electing to bat first against Rohit Sharma's side.

India’s veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin picked his 33rd five-wicket haul and his colleague Ravindra Jadeja was also impressive as he took 3 wickets for 26 runs in his 14 overs of spell. Pacers Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur picked up a wicket each. Playing his first match for West Indies, Alick Athanaze starred with the bat by scoring 47 runs before he got dismissed by Ashwin.

The Caribbean nation has never defeated India in a Test series for the last 21 years and under the leadership of Kraigg Brathwaite will look to bounce back after they failed to qualify for the ODI World Cup 2023 which will take place later this year.
