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

Sunil Gavaskar

#4 Navjot Singh Sidhu- 201

Navjot Singh Sidhu

Sidhu was a gifted stroke-maker but was equally capable of stodgy and stoic cricket if the situation demanded this approach. His innings of 201 in Trinidad and Tobago, which lasted 11 hours was perhaps his finest innings in Test cricket.

491 balls, 19 fours and a solitary six was a testament to his ability, and it helped India build a lead of 140 after the first innings. The Indian bowlers could not be penetrative enough in the second innings and the match ended in a draw.

Sidhu ended his test career with an average of 42.13 in 78 innings. These are decent numbers considering he was the opener in the majority of his matches.
