India ended Day 1 of the first Test at Antigua at 302 for 4 courtesy of an unbeaten 143 from Virat Kohli. He and Shikhar Dhawan put on 105 for the third wicket, which set up a good platform for India to go on and get a big score on the board. Watch the Day 1 highlights here. Dhawan was dismissed for a well made 84 just ahead of the tea interval. He was adjudged leg before wicket off the bowling of Devendra Bishoo. Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin then put up 66 for the fifth wicket and are the two unbeaten batsmen at the crease. Ashwin was surprisingly sent above wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha.

West Indies started the day well as they got rid of Murali Vijay early. Cheteshwar Pujara and Dhawan then put on 60 for the second wicket, which gave India some stability until Pujara played a rash shot and threw his wicket away immediately after lunch. Ajinkya Rahane and Kohli then got together and put on 57 for the fourth wicket. Kohli was the more dominant partner in all partnerships and brought up his 12th century in Tests along the way. He also went past 3,000 runs in Test cricket and also became the ninth Indian captain to score over 1,000 runs in the longest format. IND vs WI Live Streaming: Watch live telecast on Ozee.com
