India vs West Indies 2016, 1st Test, Day 2: Watch Video Highlights of Ravichandran Ashwin’s century

India will hope that Ravichandran Ashwin can show his magic with the ball as well.


Ravichandran Ashwin struck his third ton during second day’s play of the first Test between India and West Indies at Antigua. This was also his third century against the West Indies. His other two came at Eden Gardens, Kolkata and Wankhede in Mumbai. His century along with a double ton from skipper Virat Kohli as truly put India in command in this Test. There were some useful contributions from Wriddhiman Saha and Amit Mishra down the order as well. Their contributions helped India post 566 for 8 on the board. The hosts were reduced to 31 for 1 at the end of day’s play, still trailing India by 535 runs. LIVE CRICKET SCORECARD: India vs West Indies 2016, 1st Test at Antigua

Mohammed Shami ensured that India ended the day well as he got rid of West Indies opener Rajendra Chandrika, caught behind. Ashwin will have to play a big role on Day 3, this time with the ball. He got some turn at the end of Day 2 and will hope that he will get some more in the days to come. He has the support of another spinner, Amit Mishra at the other end. He will be full of confidence after having struck a quick fire fifty earlier. IND vs WI Live Streaming: Watch live telecast on Ozee.com

India had won the toss on Day 1 and had no hesitation to bat first. Kohli went in with five bowlers in this match as he generally does. West Indies on the other hand have fielded a rather inexperienced side in this match. But they bat deep and India will surely be wary of that.
