2019 West Indies Vs India First Test at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in North Sound, Antigua Aug 22 - 26,2019

 Day One Thursday Aug 22,2019

India finish at 203/6 in 68.5 Overs with Risabh Pant 20* and Ravindra Jadeja 03 at the crease

Scorecard
India 203/6 in 68.5 Overs
K L Rahul               44(97 Balls 4x5)
Ajinkya Rahane     81(163 Balls 4x10)
Hanuma Vihari      32(56 Balls 4x5)

West Indies fought back late on the first day after two half-century stands had taken India to relative safety following a fiery opening spell that had left India at 25/3 inside eight overs.

Ajinkya Rahane and KL Rahul led the first fightback with a 68-run stand, and Rahane then put on 82 with Hanuma Vihari as India dominated briefly in the middle session.

But Kemar Roach, the architect of the early collapse, returned to cause trouble with the old ball and, alongside opening partner Shannon Gabriel, kept India to 203 /6 by close of play.
