Final Day: KL Rahul Finishes the Job

The final day was short and sweet. India required 58 more runs to secure their winning streak. The West Indies gave their best and tried hard to defeat India, but luck did not favor them.

KL Rahul and B Sai Sudharsan were the first to land on the pitch. They looked calm and ready. But the West Indies got a little bit of hope when Sai Sudharsan got out for 39. Then, the young captain, Shubman Gill, came out. He hit a big six, showing his confidence. But soon after, he was also out for 13.

No need to worry, though! The experienced KL Rahul was still there. He scored a very important fifty not out. He had the young Dhruv Jurel with him, and they made sure there were no more mistakes. Rahul hit the winning runs with a nice shot for four. India won by seven wickets!

This win is a big deal for Shubman Gill. It is his first Test series win as captain. A great start for the young leader and a major event in the India vs. West Indies Test 2nd match updates. 

West Indies Batters Don’t Give Up

Though the India vs. West Indies Test Match Series was won by our beloved Indian cricketers, the West Indies players deserve true appreciation for their performance.

India made their position pretty strong in both batting and bowling. This is when a team usually collapses. But the West Indies fought hard. Two of their players, John Campbell and Shai Hope, scored centuries (100 runs each)!

Campbell got his first-ever Test century. Hope got his first Test century in eight years! They made a 177-run partnership. This gave a tough time to the Indian bowlers. 

Even Justin Greaves and Jayden Seales scored 79 runs together. West Indies captain Roston Chase conveyed that he is happy that the team was able to push through the limits and give a tough competition. This is a great sign for the team, even if they lost.

The Stars of the Show: Kuldeep and Jadeja

Indian bowlers performed well, showing patience even when the pitch offered little help.

Kuldeep Yadav was the star player of the match

  • He secured 8 wickets with 5 in the first innings
  • He won the Player of the Match award.
  • In the beginning, it was observed by the experts that he was struggling a bit to secure wickets, but later he adapted himself to the harsh ground.

  • Jadeja won the Player of the Series award.

What Happens Next?

This great win in the India vs. West Indies Test Series gives the team confidence. But the next challenge will be much harder: a series against South Africa.

The conditions in South Africa will be very different. The pitches will favor the fast bowlers even more. India has an inexperienced but talented batting order, so it is important that players like KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja step up to face the upcoming challenges. Kuldeep Yadav’s wrist spin should also play a significant role on pitches that have variable bounce.
