#1 West Indies 23/7 versus India at Gros Islet (Second Test)

West Indies lost their last seven wickets for 23 runs

The Darren Sammy National Cricket Stadium at Gros Islet was the host of the second Test between India and West Indies. After being set back by early wickets, Wriddhiman Saha and Ravichandran Ashwin piled on a 213 runs partnership to help India post 353 runs in the first innings.

West Indies motored along at a decent rate before Bhuvneshwar Kumar wreaked havoc to pick up a five-wicket haul. West Indies was 151 shy of India’s total and with seven wickets in hand, they had got India on the mat to some extent.

Call it lack of experience or horrendous batting, the last seven wickets fell for 23 runs and West Indies handed India a lead of 128 priceless runs. The blow was abysmal enough to disintegrate the Caribbean into going down by 2-0.
