Jaiswal and Virat kohli batting performance is very good especially if they can perform well today then surely Jaiswal has the possibility of double century. Shubman Gill could not show his performance in this match but Jaiswal on his part fulfilled the interest but it is best if the match ends today. Jaiswal is starting to play his first Test match so his performance looks very good as his score of 143 runs proved to the crowd and there is a possibility of a double century. West Indies should improve the bowling performance of the spinners because with the current pair out West Indies they can fall more wickets but the bowling performance must be improved.
The batting performance by the Indian players has been quite slow in recent times, which is disappointing. We're expecting them to score at a faster runs.
This is a test match. What did you expect? Very few teams like England use the Bazball approach while the majority take their time. The Indian batsmen are playing at an optimal pace and are on track to decimate WI.The way Kohli is batting, he can score century tomorrow. Yashasvi Jaiswal has also been impressive throughout the innings, and he is on track to get a double century as well.
Kohli might score a century, but I am not expecting Jaiswal to score a double century. The hype surrounding him was totally worth it. 
At the end of Day 2, India are 312 runs for the loss of 2 wickets. They enter Day 3 with a lead of 162 runs and still have 8 wickets in hand. The batting performance by the Indian players has been quite slow in recent times, which is disappointing. We're expecting them to score at a faster runs. Anyway, they are now nearly 200 runs ahead with 3 days remaining in the game. If they manage to add another 250 runs tomorrow, they can put West Indies under pressure and then quickly wrap up their innings within Day 4. The way Kohli is batting, he can score century tomorrow. Yashasvi Jaiswal has also been impressive throughout the innings, and he is on track to get a double century as well.
There is a good chance that this match will get over by today, if India bats aggressively. But so far I haven't noticed any intention from the Indian batsmen to do so. India has so far made 312 runs from 113 overs (2.76 runs per over). There is no reason to bat so slowly, given the low quality of the West Indian bowling attack. The two spinners (Jomel Warrican and Alick Athanaze) had an economy rate of just around 2.5 runs per over, as both Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli were being overcautious in their approach.
India's opening batting was excellent. Both scored centuries, Rohit Sharma was out on 103, Yashasvi Jaiswal unbeaten on 143. So far India has given a lead of 162 runs Day 2 Stumps. India still have enough wickets in hand if India leads by 250+ runs, it seems that West Indies will not be able to take the team and will lose. Because in the first innings, West Indies were all out for only 150 runs. Let's see how many runs India can lead.
LOL.. it will take a miracle from West Indies to restrict India's lead to just 250. Remember that they are leading by 162 runs with 8 wickets in hand. And in case West Indies want to restrict India's lead to 250 runs, then they need to take all the remaining wickets for just 88 runs. I would say that it is an impossible task, given the fact that India has a strong middle and lower order. Ajinkya Rahane, Ravindra Jadeja, Ishan Kishan, Ravichandran Ashwin and Shardul Thakur are yet to bat. My guess is that India will get to a lead of at least 500 runs.

Definitely, India will post more than 350+ runs for West Indies so they can win by innings. There is no reason to declare the innings without scoring enough runs. Indian Batting line is good enough to score 300 more runs while they have eight wickets in hand. Yashasvi Jaiswal has a chance to score a double-century. What a talented young batter. I have seen his journey on social media.
He scored a century in every tournament he played. Scoring a double century in debut is an extraordinary achievement. If he can score a double century in this match, he will be the 8th batter to score a double century in a debut. Only three double century was scored in debut in the last 20 years.

For India the problem is with oversupply. What Jaiswal will do when Shreyas Iyer and Rishabh Pant are back in the team? Already Jaiswal, Gill and Ishan Kishan are fighting for the same spot. I think ICC need to allow two test teams from India. Else a lot of talented players will find themselves outside the team despite the fact that they are performing really well. Anyway, this series is turning out to be a farce. West Indies cricket is in hard times. They lost to Scotland and Netherlands earlier this month and now they are getting hammered by Indian youngsters.

India still have enough wickets in hand if India leads by 250+ runs, it seems that West Indies will not be able to take the team and will lose.
Where two opening batsmen have scored centuries and an opening batsman is unbeaten on 143 runs, there are still enough wickets in hand so why do we expect 250 plus runs. India is already 162 runs ahead, so they will score only 88 runs with 8 wickets in hand on the third day? You just have to wait for India's third day to see where India's runs end up. The Indian target now is to follow the West Indies, in which case they will bat a little aggressively on the third day. Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal on the wicket so far will pick up on day two from where they left off on day three. If it is possible to score 500 plus runs, then West Indies will have a great chance to follow.He scored a century in every tournament he played.

India is batting in the second session of the second day in the first test between India vs West Indies. Record Highest runs for first wicket pair in Test cricket against West Indies. Yashasvi Jaiswal scored his first career century in the debut match. Rohit Sharma is unbeaten on 91 runs and is on his way to his 10th career century. So far India has taken the lead by 63 runs without a wicket. West Indies continued to lose control of the game as India continued their batting run streak.
India will do well enough against the West Indies to win the series. We have seen that on the second day, India scored the runs that West Indies collected without taking any wicket. Two batsmen scored this. Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma both had excellent batting performances and they managed to score centuries. Yashasvi Jaiswal in particular was outstanding for India in his first Test match and scored the highest number of runs there. Although India batted they scored 312 runs losing only 2 wickets. Where West Indies scored 150 runs in their first series losing all wickets. But India batted and scored great runs batsmen now lead India by 162 runs over West Indies. West Indies may never be able to match India because India's batting and bowling are much stronger than West Indies..
Yashasvi Jaiswal is playing a magical innings against West Indies. So far this T20 specialist star is unbeaten with 143 wickets.
You got a bit wrong here, Yashasvi Jaiswal scored 143 runs, you wrote wickets. Yashasvi Jaiswal is playing a magical innings against West Indies. So far this T20 specialist star is unbeaten with 143 wickets.
India managed to score 312 runs against West Indies at the end of the second day. Team India ended the second day's play with a lead of 162 runs. They still have enough wickets in hand to declare their innings midway through the third day. If they declare the first innings against Australia with 2 wickets or 3 wickets in hand, the chances of defeating West Indies by an innings margin will increase.
Yashasvi Jaiswal is playing a magical innings against West Indies. So far this T20 specialist star is unbeaten with 143 runs. He was originally kept as a member of the T20 team but given the opportunity in the Test team, he has done great things for India.

Among the Indian batsmen, Shubman Gill is the only one who missed out, as he was dismissed for just 6 runs by Jomel Warrican. Everyone else got a good boost to their career batting stats, including the debutant Yashasvi Jaiswal. Rohit Sharma badly needed this boost after a few ordinary performances in the recent past. And let's not forget those players who got the opportunity to boost their career bowling stats, such as Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. I guess that is the only purpose of this series. BTW, it was a good opportunity for the selectors to test some of the younger players (apart from Jaiswal).

West Indies may never be able to match India because India's batting and bowling are much stronger than West Indies. I do not understand why the Indian team is playing test cricket against WI. The WI team is in such bad shape that it is worthless to even play against them. All I am able to foresee is that the ongoing series will only help India's ranking on the ICC table. I am not going to see the test match as I know India would easily win the match. BCCI should have canceled this bilateral and any in the future until the WI side is good enough to play against India.
This is one of the reasons why test cricket is dying. I don't have any issues in India playing against West Indies in T20I or ODI formats. The matches will still be one sided, but not as much as the clown show that is going on right now. It looks like India will get to a total of 600 or 700, and may then bowl out West Indies for somewhere around 150 to win the test by an innings and 300 runs. And let's not forget the fact that West Indies is playing in their own backyard. The ICC doesn't want to do anything regarding this, because WICB wants revenue from TV rights.
There is 229 runs opening partnership between both openers. West Indies got first break through at score of 229. Yashasvi Jaiswal is having ideal start of his test career, you won't get better start then that. West Indies really need to do something about there team as time is running out of there hands. This West indies are no way near India team and it looks like India is playing with some associate team.
West Indies have gone completely down. I don't know when this team will get back to form. It is the team that is full of legendary players and now everything have gone upside down. I don't know how things could change. There needs to be some arrangements to overcome the scenario. If this isn't addressed at the right time, even they could drop down from the better position in the T20 cricket format.

West Indies was also eliminated from the T20 world cup qualifiers, then they have been eliminated from the ODI world cup qualifiers too. West Indies has become very weak team for the ignorance of their cricket board. Undoubtedly they are going to loss the first test match by an innings. And I think that the result of the second test match will be same.
Absolutely Thier recent squad has done really disappointing performance, the unity and power of will were missing in entire west indies team due to which they face such a terrible defeats, now against India Thier performance is like street boys play with pro, Thier is no need to play with such a shit team which no ability to retaliate but anyway it will be an opportunity for BCCI to test his younger.Y.Jasiwal done a supervb performance and scored his first international century in such a young age, while his partner sharma are about to score his century too. hope they will continue his partnership last long..
The Windies didn't get any wickets so far but their bowlers are doing a great job, spinners in particular keeping things very tight and rarely giving any freebies, which is good to watch.
Spinners did trouble both openers but batters are all set and must be eyeing their 100s. The Windies are in for a hard grind in this inning because of the deep batting lineup of India.
Matches like this one are frankly why tests are becoming less and less entertaining. In comparison, the Ashes is leagues away in terms of entertainment even though it's the gold standard of the test format.Spinners did trouble both openers but batters are all set and must be eyeing their 100s.

One sided T-20 and ODI matches get boring too, but they are watchable since they aren't very long while one sided tests chase away viewers quickly since not many are interested in watching such long games with predictable winners.
We need more tests between evenly matched teams is my point basically.
As of now, they are just killing it and I don't think the Indian team wants to bat again. A century on debut is a fine way to start your test career. Well done Jaiswal!

West Indians doing good job in bowling after having poor in batting, but things are still looking for the inning defeat with right now openers are playing comfortably even have slow run-rate, but this all is good for the Indian because right now they are leading by 40 runs and if things gone in this way for some more time then surely they can touch 400+ and this could be ended for the home-side.Spinners did trouble both openers but batters are all set and must be eyeing their 100s.

Jaiswal is already in nervous nineties as he is playing his first test match and Rohit Sharma is also doing good job and playing against his own style which is also good for the India and captain today most chances we will have 300+ with the lost of one or two wickets could be all OK with one man surely needs to stay until end of the day.
