After amassing impressive runs on flat wickets, Raina's Test match temperament was effectively challenged in the West Indies in 2011 where India played on dry and bowling friendly surfaces.

In the first Test, the Caribbean pace and spin battery reduced India to six down for 85 runs. With no frontline batsmen to seek support from, a young Raina took on the responsibility of the innings on his shoulders and repaired the damage.

A half-century from Harbhajan Singh helped and Raina pushed India beyond 200. The southpaw was the last Indian batsman to get out and scored a Valliant and gutsy 82 runs. His innings allowed India to reach to 246 which proved decisive in the end as the visitors won the game by 63 runs.
