India is taking on West Indies in the first game of the two-match series at Dominica. They were asked to field first and they did a great job with the ball as on account of Ravichandran Ashwin?s five-wicket haul they bundled out the opposition for just 150 runs. 

With the bat, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma looked settled at the crease and along with debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal played excellently well. The duo stitched unbeaten 80 runs for the opening partnership before umpires called stumps on Day 1.
