India Wins the Test Series Against West Indies
India's
victory over the West Indies in the second test not only gave them a sweep of
the 2-0 series and first place in the World Test Championship standings. And it
was also their 28th win under Virat Kohli captaincy, making it most successful
Indian Captain in Test matches. Kohli, captain of the test team, however, said
his feat as captain was only a by-product of his team and his bowlers.
"The
captaincy is right in front of your name, honestly. It's the collective effort
that counts," Bumrah told Ian Bishop during the presentation after the
game. If we did not have the bowlers we had, I do not think the results would
have been possible.
"Yes,
you can score as many points as you like, but if you look at these guys running
around and putting their heart in it. I mean the fate of Shami today, Bumrah
after having a little reproach, Ishant throwing it in the center, Jadeja
bowling a long time. I don't think it was possible without those bowlers. So I
think all the credit goes to the whole team.
India
won the second test match in the second session on the fourth day, and Kohli
praised man of the game, Hanuma Vihari, who managed 111 and 53 to become the
outstanding batsman of the tournament. Vihari's strike was characterized by his the ease with which he had left the ball and the patience he had shown, which had
finally allowed the ball to roll in his goals.
"You
have to be patient on this type of wicket, and you have to select the balls
that are in your area to score points." "Because there's something
for fast bowlers, and you must go out of the stump and wait for them to come to
you."
Kohli
admitted that the pitch dictated the game plan for the stick and indicated that
Vihari had calmed down the locker room.
"Depending
on the surface, I think it was a first-class round." "He's a guy
who's very sure of his game, and you can see it when he's playing. He looks
confident, and the dressing room is very quiet looking at him. I think it's a
quality he naturally possesses because his game is so fair. He is always
willing to improve, accepts his mistakes, and corrects them immediately, and he
gets the results pretty quickly.
He
plays with a lot of heart is always ready to do something for the team and
that's why he always ends up playing crucial innings for us. It's a very young
career so far, but it has shown why it's been s have been saved and selected
from this team. "
India
has been ranked Number one in the cricket test since October 2016. Kohli led
them everywhere except when he was injured. He assumed the position of
full-time test captain when Dhoni announced his retirement midway through the
Australian tour of Australia in 2015-16, after leading the first test of the
series with Dhoni injured, and then in the last match that followed Dhoni.
Departure. Before the victory in the Caribbean, he had led India to its first
series victory in Australia in 2018-19.
