The first Test between India and the West Indies was marked by some funny teasing between Ishan Kishan and Ajinkya Rahane.
On Sunday, during Day 3 of the first Test match between India and the West Indies in Dominica, wicketkeeper Ajinkya Rahane of the Indian cricket team trolled his teammate. Even though India was on the verge of triumph in the last session, the local crowd was given some relief when No. 11 batsman Jomel Warrican scored 18 runs in 18 balls. Ishan poked fun at Rahane, who only managed three runs off eleven deliveries, by joking that Warrican can now play more balls than the seasoned batsman. He joked, “Aap se zyada ball khel gaya yeh, Ajju bhai” (He has played more balls than you have).
On Friday, India beat the West Indies by an innings and 141 runs thanks to the efforts of Ravichandran Ashwin, who took five wickets for the second time in the game.
After India declared their first innings at 421 for five in the middle of the afternoon session, the Caribbean hitters were anticipated to produce an improved batting display. Still, they instead fell to 130 all out in 50 overs, resulting in a three-day conclusion.
After taking his 33rd five-wicket haul in the first innings, Ashwin backed it up with his finest bowling performance of the Test, seven for 71 in 21.3 overs.
The West Indies were doomed to lose after being bowled out for 150 on the first day.
Yashasvi Jaiswal, who hit 171 on his debut, was vital in setting up India’s massive triumph. Virat Kohli scored 76 out of 182, but it was not one of his flowing knocks because he was dropped twice and had to fight very hard to score.
