Hello and a warm welcome ladies and gentlemen to our coverage of Day 2 in this first Test between India and West Indies coming from Windsor Park in Dominica. India put on a dominant display on Day 1 as they find themselves in complete control of this game and will look to press their advantage further when they take the field. The hosts have loads of work to do to get a sniff and keep their chances of winning this game alive. We anticipate this to be another day that will be dominated by the visitors but cricket is a funny game and it is never over till it is over.

The Indian openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma batted with ease and were barely troubled by the West Indies bowlers. Jaiswal another debutant played some fine shots and looked confident at the crease. The duo played till the close of play and added 80 without losing a wicket. The Indian batters will look to bat West Indies out of this game by putting up a huge first innings total. On a strip that is deteriorating and seems to have some spin and bounce on offer right from Day 1 they will want to bat just once and unleash their spinners. Will they be able to post a mammoth total?

Having lost the toss and asked to bowl first India bundled out West Indies for a paltry score of 150 in the first innings. Ravichandran Ashwin was the wrecker in chief with his 33rd five-wicket haul while Ravindra Jadeja picked up three scalps. Mohammed Siraj and Shardul Thakur rounded it off with a wicket each to finish an excellent effort with the ball. The Windies batters got starts but could not carry on and departed to poor shots. Alick Athanaze on Test debut looked solid and played a fine knock of 47 but failed to make it big as he played one rash shot.

West Indies on the other hand had a forgettable Day 1 as they weren't able to match the levels of the visitors. They elected to bat but it was a dismal performance from them as they were bowled out for a mere 150. Only Alick Athanaze looked solid for his well-made 47 and that too on his debut which says a lot about this Windies team. More than good balls their batters gave their wickets away with poor shot selections that cost them a lot. Their bowling was a lot better with Alzarri Joseph and Rahkeem Cornwall coming close on a few occasions but they didn't manage to get any wickets which has put them on the back foot in this Test.

Losing the toss did not affect India one bit. They were asked to bowl and all of their bowlers were pretty disciplined. It was looking like a wicket where seamers would get some help up front and Mohammed Siraj and Jaydev Unadkat did get it but with no luck. Rohit soon realized this is a slow wicket and introduced Ravichandran Ashwin early which proved to be the best decision. He straightaway got them the breakthrough that they wanted and never looked back. Ashwin also became the first Indian to get the wicket of a father-son duo when he got rid of Tagenarine who is as you all know the son of West Indian legend Shivnarine Chanderpaul.

SESSION SUMMARY - 93 runs and 2 wickets in 29.3 overs. A tiring Day 1 comes to an end! It belonged well and truly to India! There was a lot of talk about Yashasvi Jaiswal but except for some early nerves he has been excellent on his debut and Rohit Sharma also supported him well with his experience. They have built up a solid foundation for India with the former ending the Day on 40 as they trail by just 70 runs with all the wickets in hand and chances are high that they will look to outbat the hosts so that they don't have to come out to bat for the second innings.
