IND vs WI Live Score, 1st Test Match Day 1: India’s bowlers ran through West Indies’ top order in a clinical morning session, leaving the visitors tottering at 90/5 at lunch on the first day of the opening Test. Mohammed Siraj produced a destructive spell of 7-3-19-3, targeting a fragile batting lineup still reeling from their lowest-ever Test total of 27 in the previous match. Siraj’s breakthroughs began with a short-of-length delivery that extra-bounced to remove Tagenarine Chanderpaul (0), caught brilliantly by Dhruv Jurel at short leg.

Jasprit Bumrah struck early as well, drawing John Campbell (8) forward with a delivery that straightened, producing two spikes on UltraEdge before the ball beat the edge to the wicketkeeper. Bumrah’s first-over swing troubled Campbell, but the opener managed a couple of boundaries, only to be dismissed later in a crucial spell that established India’s dominance.

Brandon King offered resistance, scoring 13 off 15 balls with three fours, but a misjudged leave to a Siraj delivery saw his middle stump shattered. Alick Athanaze (12) fell to Siraj edging to second slip, reducing West Indies to 42/4.

Just before lunch, Kuldeep Yadav struck, outfoxing Shai Hope (26) with a flighted delivery from outside off, which turned sharply to beat the inside edge and crash into the stumps.

Despite a pitch lacking green tinge or pronounced assistance, India exploited subtle seam and spin movement expertly. Roston Chase (22)* remained unbeaten, sharing a 48-run partnership with Hope for the fifth wicket, the only resistance from the West Indies camp. Overall, India’s bowlers combined precision, movement, and strategic variations to leave the visitors under severe early pressure.
