Jaiswal, Sudharsan and Gill Lay Massive Foundation
After winning the toss and electing to bat first at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, India’s openers gave a commanding start. Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul stitched together a crucial opening stand before Rahul fell for 38. Jaiswal continued his impressive run, reaching a seventh Test century and was ably supported by B Sai Sudharsan, who notched up a stylish maiden Test fifty and was unlucky to miss a debut ton, falling for 87. India ended Day 1 at 318/2, with Jaiswal and Shubman Gill unbeaten at the crease. Day 2 saw Jaiswal run out on 175, but Gill took charge, notching his own century and guiding India into a declaration at a formidable 518/3, putting the home side in a commanding position.
Hope and Campbell Lead West Indies Resistance
Facing a daunting target after being made to follow-on, West Indies staged a spirited fightback led by centuries from John Campbell and Shai Hope. Their 177-run partnership frustrated the Indian bowlers and forced India to work hard for wickets. However, Mohammed Siraj and Kuldeep Yadav, with the latter taking eight wickets in the match, ultimately broke through as the West Indies faltered late in their second innings. Needing just 121 runs to win, Indian openers started aggressively before Yashasvi Jaiswal fell to Jomel Warrican. KL Rahul and B Sai Sudharsan then adopted a cautious approach, steering India safely with a solid 54-run unbeaten partnership and ensuring there were no more mishaps in the chase.
With this comprehensive win, India not only sealed a 2-0 clean sweep but also gave Shubman Gill his first series victory as captain. Will this young team carry the momentum forward into bigger challenges ahead?
