West Indies vs India 2023, 2nd Test – Stats Preview

The second Test match between West Indies and India will be played at Queen’s Park Oval, Port of Spain, Trinidad from Thursday onwards. There was just no contest in the opening Test match as India won by a gargantuan margin of an innings and 141 runs.

West Indies were not able to provide any challenge to the visitors and they will have to play out of their skin to put up a fight. India was dominant right throughout the game and they will be looking to continue their supremacy against a beleaguered West Indies outfit.

Yashasvi Jaiswal showed he has a bright future ahead of himself as he scored a patient knock of 171 runs. Furthermore, Ravichandran Ashwin breathed down the neck of the home team as he bagged a total of 12 wickets.
