India have stamped their authority in Test cricket against the West Indies, defeating them comprehensively on Day 3 of their first Test match.  

The Shubman Gill-led side didn't even have to chase a target to clinch victory in this encounter, as they were able to bowl out their opponents in the second session of the third day, well behind the set lead. 

IND vs WI: Test Match Summary

The match started on October 2, 2025 with a near-flawless bowling display from the home side in Ahmedabad.

Their batting reflected the same effortless class, with tons from KL Rahul, Dhruv Jurel, and vice captain, Ravindra Jadeja, as well as a half century from captain Shubman Gill. Their heroics helped India establish a lead of 286 runs (448-5 was the total score), as they declared their innings right at the start of the third day of play.

When West Indies came out to bat for the second time, the story wasn't much different, as they lost wickets cheaply, and weren't able to challenge the bowlers effectively.

66-5 was the score at lunch, and the second session, once again, brought an end to the touring side's innings at just 146 runs. The result, India won the first Test match. Mohammed Siraj picked 7 wickets across the two innings, continuing his lethal form from the England tour that was drawn 2-2.

India will now take on West Indies in the second and final Test match for this series. That fixture will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi, starting from October 10, 2025.
