India made light work of West Indies as the tourists decimated the Caribbean batting line-up, sealing the first Test of the three-match series by an innings and 141 runs. Debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal was adjudged player of the match for his enthralling 171. Like the first innings, West Indies didn’t have a clue against India’s wrecker-in-chief Ravichandran Ashwin, as the veteran spinner picked 7-71, bowling out the opposition for just 130 runs. He signed off with match figures 12-130, matching legendary Anil Kumble’s most number of 10-wicket hauls (8) for India. Debutant Alick Athanaze top scored with 28 runs for the losing team. Earlier in the day, Virat Kohli brought up his 29th Test fifty before falling to a leg-side trap set by Rahkeem Cornwall.
