West Indies vs India 2016: 5 best batting performances by Indian batsmen in the West Indies

Sunil Gavaskar

#3 Wasim Jaffer- 212

Wasim Jaffer

A real veteran of the Indian domestic set-up, Wasim Jaffer had the game to be successful at the international level, but his career was largely underwhelming. He was a stylish stroke-maker who had the temperament to dig in and play the long innings. However, an average of 34.10 after 58 innings does not justice to his potential.

His international career was dotted with few memorable performances along the way, and the innings of 212 exemplified the man and his potential. This innings came in the second innings of the first match in Antigua.

India were trailing by 130 runs after the first innings and were under considerable pressure. However, Jaffer soaked in everything thrown at him and carved out a memorable innings which put India in the driver's seat.

West Indies were given a daunting target of 392 runs, and India almost sneaked home, but West Indies held on. They ended with 9 wickets down and somehow saved the match.
