Team India is taking on West Indies in the first test of the two-match test series in Dominica. During the India vs West Indies first test on July 12, young batter Shubman Gill looked in a jolly mood as he was seen showcasing Caribbean dance steps while fielding on Day 1.

Talking about the game, the Rohit Sharma-led side got off to a great start in the first India vs West Indies test courtesy of the brilliant spell bowled by off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin. The experienced campaigner took a 5-wicket haul including the wickets of opening batters Kragg Brathwaite and Tagenarine Chanderpaul.

Left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja too joined the party as he dismissed 3 West Indies batters on Day 1. None of the experienced Caribbean batters looked in any rhythm against a strong Indian bowling lineup while debutant Alick Athanaze played a crucial knock of 47 runs.

The West Indies side were eventually bowled out for a below par total of 150 runs in their first innings on Day 1 after playing just 64.3 overs. Indian pacers Shardul Thakur and Mohammed Siraj took a wicket each.
