Top order crisis of West Indies continues
Meanwhile, the inaugural conflict of the West Indies continued in 2025, failing to create any impact in Test cricket with their top orders. So far this year, he has managed to add fifty runs in an initial partnership only once in six matches.
His performance has been so poor that, after 5 or more tests a year, his early batsmen are now the worst average, 10.20 in a calendar year.
On the other hand, India was completely dominated with the bat. His top order fired on all cylinders to take the team to 448 for 5, leading to a big first innings of 286 runs.
In a amazing step, India announced their innings for 3 days in the morning, leaving the West Indies to start their second innings under pressure. To give a little preparation to the pitch, India requested visitors a light roller before batting, yet behind by 286 runs.
