Virat Kohli Superb Unbeaten Century lead to Prospective Score 302/4
West Indies vs India, 1st Test – Day-1 India 302/4
Day 1: Stumps
A day defined by the genius of Virat Kohli. The Indian skipper racing away to his second fastest Test ton and leading his team to a position and a prospective first innings score from where they can dictate terms. A 12th Test ton, and the phenomenon of Kohli keeps growing. Kohli had an able ally in Dhawan for the major part, the southpaw missing out on a hundred and falling at the stroke of tea. Then Ashwin played a nice sidekick towards the end of the day to affirm India’s ascendancy. Gabriel stood out for West Indies, bowling with fire and aggression and cranking it up in short bursts with consistent speeds throughout. Could have been much worse if you take out a couple of Bishoo half-trackers which bagged the wickets of Pujara and Rahane. Fancy the hosts having a crack with the new ball first up tomorrow morning. Need to make it count as that is their best possible hope to curb India’s surge. Join us tomorrow for all that and much more
