India vs West Indies: Day1
Veteran spinner Ravichandran Ashwin’s 33rd fifer (5 for 60 in 24.3 overs) put team India in the driver’s seat against hosts West Indies on Day 1 of India vs West Indies 1st Test in Dominica on Wednesday (July 12).
Ashwin and Jadeja (3/26 in 14 overs) made life miserable for the hosts on a pitch that aided bounce and turn right from 1st session of the match. The spin duo’s bowling heroics restricted West Indies for a lowly 150 in 64.3 overs.
At Stumps on Day 1, Rohit Sharma (30 batting, 65 balls) and debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal (40 batting, 73 balls) added 80 runs for first wicket to bring down first innings deficit to 70 going into day 2.
