India wrapped up a commanding seven-wicket victory over the West Indies in the 2nd Test, sealing the series in emphatic fashion. After enforcing the follow-on, India chased down a modest target to finish at 124 for 3, following their massive first-innings total of 518 for 5 declared.
The West Indies, who were bowled out for 248 in their first innings, put up a stronger fight in the second with 390, but it was not enough to prevent another Indian triumph.
India’s dominance was underlined by a clinical all-round performance. Yashasvi Jaiswal once again set the tone with a sparkling 175, while Sai Sudharsan impressed with a composed 87. Shubman Gill, leading from the front, guided the chase with an unbeaten 129, ensuring India’s victory with maturity and flair.
The bowling honors went to Kuldeep Yadav, whose outstanding spell earned him five wickets, dismantling the West Indian middle order with guile and variation. His match-winning performance secured him the Player of the Match award.
Ravindra Jadeja, India’s tireless all-rounder, was named Player of the Series for his consistent contributions with both bat and ball. Jadeja also played a key role in the first innings, dismissing Tagenarine Chanderpaul (34) and keeping the pressure on the hosts throughout.
India’s comprehensive performance showcased their depth, adaptability, and hunger to dominate in all conditions, while the West Indies, despite flashes of resistance, were outclassed across both Tests.
With this victory, India reinforced their position as one of the most balanced Test sides in world cricket — combining youth, experience, and spin mastery to secure yet another overseas series win.
