Shubman Gill got his maiden Test series victory as the Indian captain after the hosts completed a series sweep over West Indies 2-0 on Tuesday at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. Needing 58 runs for victory on the final day, the Indians took 17.2 overs to reach the target and win the game by seven wickets.
Starting the day on an overnight score of 63/1, bith KL Rahul and Sai Sudharsan started on a steady note. It was Rahul who broke the shackles with the couple of boundaries. Sudharsan was unlucky to get caught brilliantly by Shai Hope at slips, while Shubman Gill perished while trying to finish the game in a hurry.
In the end, it was Rahul, who completed his fifty before hitting the winning runs on a Tuesday morning. With this win, India remained at third spot in the WTC 2025-27 points table with four wins from seven games. India have lost twice while one game ended in a draw.
