India won the first Test against West Indies easily in just three days, giving them 12 points to open their WTC25 campaign. A pathetic score on the first innings after winning the toss was just the start of things to come for the West Indies. Yashasvi Jaiswal highlighted the poor shot-making of the opposition batters with a systematically constructed 171 on her debut. Virat Kohli struggled to score 76 runs while Rohit Sharma contributed 103. It was only a matter of time before a declaration at 421 for 5 was made with a strong first innings advantage of 271. A commanding victory for his team was capped by Ravichandran Ashwin’s rout of the West Indies. In the second Test in Trinidad, the sub-continental team will be hoping for a better performance along such lines.
