Windies restrict India to 203 for six on opening day

Friday, 23 August 2019 14:38

Ajinkya Rahane scored a fine half-century but it was the West Indies bowlers who managed to steal the show on the opening day of the first test in Antigua.

Despite rain playing spoilsport, Rahane (81) managed to anchor India's revival with a scratchy knock after his team lost three early wickets.

Kemar Roach dismissed Mayank Agarwal and Cheteshwar Pujara in the fifth over, while Shannon Gabriel accounted for captain Virat Kohli.

Only 68.5 overs were bowled due to intermittent rain, with India scoring 203 for six.
