1st Test: India v West Indies at Mumbai, 9-13 Oct 2002

Ball-by-Ball Commentary


Match State: Day 1 start scheduled to start at 09:30 IST (0400 GMT)

       Good day and welcome to CricInfo's coverage of the first India-West
        Indies Test match, to be played on a hot and humid day at the
        Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
       The first day of the series is always important, if at least to get
        that vital psychological edge over the other team. But how much of
        that edge India will need is debatable.
       For India at home are a formidable, formidable opposition, aided by
        weather conditions, turning tracks and vociferous crowds. The
        second factor, however, may just have been taken out of the
        equation for this Test.
       The newly relaid Wankehede Stadium track sports slight patches of
        green that may just be the happiest sight to meet the West Indian
        fast bowlers' eyes on this tour. The traces of moisture, however,
        will dry out in no time at all under the blazing sun.
       After the series loss in the Caribbean earlier this year, India
        will be looking to get a little of their own back in this series.
       The West Indies are without star batsman Brian Lara, who withdrew
        during the recent ICC Champions Trophy, and that is a huge lacuna
        in the line-up, not only for the team but also for the crowds.
       But memories of Carl Hooper and Shivnarine Chanderpaul torturing
        the Indian bowlers are still fresh, and combined with the form
        that the other top-order batsmen showed at Bangalore, that should
        give the West Indians some hope.
       Carl Hooper, playing his 100th Test today at the same venue of his
        debut, will consider a winning start to the series the best
        possible celebration of the occasion.
       Their bowling is still their biggest drawback, with spinner
        Mahendra Nagamootoo not troubling the Board President's XI batsmen
        too much in the tour game. The fast bowling, with the exception of
        Merv Dillon, is green and inexperienced in these conditions.
       India, on the other hand, seem to hold all the aces. Their batting
        is one of the mightiest in world cricket, while their bowling at
        home has proved difficult to scale for every team over the years.
       The toss was won by Sourav Ganguly, who elected to have a bat first
        up.
       Teams:
       India: Sourav Ganguly (captain), Sachin Tendulkar, Virender Sehwag,
        Rahul Dravid, Javagal Srinath, Harbhajan Singh, Zaheer Khan, Anil
        Kumble, Sanjay Bangar, Parthiv Patel, VVS Laxman
       West Indies: Carl Hooper (captain), Shivnarine Chanderpaul, Chris
        Gayle, Wavell Hinds, Ryan Hinds, Ramnaresh Sarwan, Mervyn Dillon,
        Pedro Collins, Mahendra Nagamootoo, Ridley Jacobs, Cameron Cuffy
   0.1 Dillon to Bangar, no run, tapped to the onside, Sanjay Bangar
        taking first strike here.
   0.2 Dillon to Bangar, no run, just outside the off, and nipping back
        off the seam to the right-hander, who lets it alone outside the
        off.
   0.3 Dillon to Bangar, no run, fuller this time, and Bangar jams down on
        it to drive back to Dillon on the bounce.
   0.4 Dillon to Bangar, FOUR, just short of a length, and Bangar comes
        forward instead of going back, the ball taking the shoulder of the
        bat and getting the edge to run away past gully for four to third
        man.
   0.5 Dillon to Bangar, no run, good line and length, just full enough to
        make the batsman come forward, yet moving late to beat the probing
        bact.
   0.6 Dillon to Bangar, no run, short ball, outside off and directed into
        the batsman, who ducks out of harm's way easily.

V Sehwag 0* (0b) SB Bangar 4* (6b 1x4)

       Pedro Collins to partner Dillon from the Tata End.
   1.1 Collins to Sehwag, (noball) no run, fulla nd fast, and Sehwag tries
        the whip to leg and misses. A half-hearted appeal from Collins,
        but the ball is missing leg.
   1.1 Collins to Sehwag, two runs, full and on the legs again, and this
        time Sehwag gets the whip right, turning it nicely to the square
        leg area for a brace.
   1.2 Collins to Sehwag, no run, short of a length, rising on the off
        stump, and Sehwag gets on his toes and plays it nicely to extra
        cover.
   1.3 Collins to Sehwag, no run, full and on the middle and legs tump,
        and Sehwag gets on the front foot, almost falling over in the
        attempt to play it down to the short leg fielder.
   1.4 Collins to Sehwag, no run, short of a length, patted away to the
        offside field.
   1.5 Collins to Sehwag, legbye: one run, a snorter! short and rising
        fast, and Sehwag tries to duck out of the way, but he is not fast
        enough and is struck on the helmet. The ball runs away to leg for
        a leg bye.
   1.6 Collins to Bangar, no run

End of over 2 (4 runs) India 8/0

V Sehwag 2* (6b) SB Bangar 4* (7b 1x4)

   2.1 Dillon to Sehwag, no run, on the off stump, and Sehwag seems more
        comfortable with the right hander over the wicket than the left-
        arm Collins.
   2.2 Dillon to Sehwag, no run, short of a length, outside the off, and
        Sehwag tries the slash, but the feet are not going anywhere and
        the ball beats th ebat.
   2.3 Dillon to Sehwag, no run, rising delivery again, outside the off,
        and Sehwag spars at it and outside-edges it, but the ball fall
        sjust short of slip[.
   2.4 Dillon to Sehwag, no run, short of a lenght, and Sehwag retreats
        into his crease and defends on the back foot.
   2.5 Dillon to Sehwag, no run, similar ball again, and Sehwag on the
        back foot this time gets a high outside edge, but the ball yet
        again does not carry to the third slip fielder, falling just short
        to his right.
   2.6 Dillon to Sehwag, no run, nipping further into the batsman this
        time, and Sehwag is beaten between bat and body, trying an airy
        ambiguous stroke and missing the line completely.

End of over 3 (maiden) India 8/0
M Dillon 2-1-4-0 - Garware Pavilion End
SB Bangar 4* (7b 1x4) V Sehwag 2* (12b)

   3.1 Collins to Bangar, no run, on middle and leg, defended back nicely.
        An attacking field here set by Hooper, with a short leg, silly
        mid-off, and a tight slip cordon to boot.
   3.2 Collins to Bangar, no run, rising delivery, solidly defended to the
        off on his toes.
   3.3 Collins to Bangar, (noball) no run, Collins overstepping for the
        second time today, in just his second over.
   3.3 Collins to Bangar, no run, short delivery, rising outside the off,
        and Bangar merely sways away fromt he line to leg.
   3.4 Collins to Bangar, no run, steered away on the back foot to gully.
   3.5 Collins to Bangar, no run, short, but outside the leg, and Bangar
        ducks forward and down.
   3.6 Collins to Bangar, two runs, drifting to leg, and Bangar flicks it
        away, but although nicely timed, he only gets two, the outfield in
        the deep midwicket region looking slow.

End of over 4 (3 runs) India 11/0
PT Collins 2-0-6-0 (2nb) - Tata End
V Sehwag 2* (12b) SB Bangar 6* (14b 1x4)

   4.1 Dillon to Sehwag, one run, full, and Sehwag comes forward and half-
        edges half-steers it to the left of a diving gully for one to
        third man.
   4.2 Dillon to Bangar, no run, full and swinging just a touch into the
        batsman, and Bangar is rapped on the front pad as he walks
        forward. A loud, concerted appeal, but the batsman is playing a
        stroke and is too far forward.
   4.3 Dillon to Bangar, no run, another appeal, a better one too, and
        Bangar is still hit on the walk, but fractionally outside off,
        which saves him.
   4.4 Dillon to Bangar, no run, outside the off, nipping in with the arm,
        and Bangar leaves this one alone.
   4.5 Dillon to Bangar, no run, sharp nip from outside off, but more than
        that the carry is the surprise, which even catches Jacobs behind
        the stumps off his guard.

End of over 5 (1 run) India 12/0
M Dillon 3-1-5-0 - Garware Pavilion End

   5.1 Collins to Sehwag, FOUR, and finally Sehwag gives the crowd what it
        is waiting for. Just short of a length, predictable bounce, and
        Sehwag goes back and simply strokes it through the off, between
        point and cover for his first four.
   5.2 Collins to Sehwag, FOUR, and more! this time short of a lenght but
        closer to the body, and Sehwag opens the face of the bat nicely
        and glides it between third slip and gully for his second four.
   5.3 Collins to Sehwag, no run, short of a lenght, b ut this time on the
        legs, and Shewag defends it back to Collins.

  21.4 Nagamootoo to Sehwag, FOUR, tossed up outside the off, and Sehwag

Match State: Lunch - Day 1

       Not a fruitful session for the Windies this morning. Hooper would
        have expected his bowlers to take more advantage of the freshness
        in the wicket, but no batsmen have been dismissed thus far.
       India of course will be only too happy with teh state of affairs.
        Bangar is playing a solid innings, a nice foil to Sehwag's
        attacking play at the other end.
       While Bangar has 18 off 87 balls, Sehwag in only two deliveries
        more has made 53 with 11 fours, showing glimpses of teh form he
        enjoyed in teh ICC Champions Trophy.
       Hooper's concern will be that the bowling seems very toothless
        indeed. Merv Dillon, the spearhead, could not pick up any wickets
        in his tight opening spell, while the spinners - Nagamootoo and
        Hooper himself - could find no purchase on  the track.
       Forty minutes for lunch, so do join us after that for the afternoon
        session.
       Welcome back after lunch, where Carl Hooper will continue to bowl
        his off-spin.
  29.1 Hooper to Bangar, no run, pushed to the offside.
  29.2 Hooper to Bangar, one run, worked off the pads, as Hoper drifts
        down leg, to the square leg area for one.
  29.3 Hooper to Sehwag, no run, full and down the legs, and Sehwag tamely
        plays it to the short leg fielder.
  29.4 Hooper to Sehwag, FOUR, full and outside the off, tempting Sehwag
        to go after it, and the batsman  obliges, thrashing that one
        through teh offside between point and cover to get four.
  29.5 Hooper to Sehwag, no run, s horte rthis time, and Sehwag goes onto
        the back foot and plays it to cover.
  29.6 Hooper to Sehwag, two runs, this time Sehwag waits for it and
        glides it to third man for two, the fielder giving chase and
        throwing it back.

  32.5 Dillon to Sehwag, FOUR, short and wide, and Sehwag tries the
        powerful slash over the slip cordon. The third man fielder
        stationed for that purpose, Pedro Collins, gets a hand to it, but
        he only succeeds in grounding the catch and pushing it over the

Match State: Tea - Day 1

       One hundred runs coming in the afternoon session, off 29 overs - a
        scoring rate much improved from the earlier session.
       A very worrying session for Carl Hooper and his West Indians, who
        have now gone 58 overs without a wicket.
       At one end they are faced with Sanjay Bangar's obdurate batting,
        his 44 runs coming off a whopping 171 balls.
       At the other end is Sehwag, who set the stadium alight with his
        stroke play today, making 124 off just 180 balls with 2 fours and
        two sixes.
       In the process, the pair have put on a record first-woicket
        partnership for India against the West Indies on any ground - and
        they aren't done yet, by the looks of it.
       Join us in 20 minutes for the final session of the day.

Match State: Stumps - Day 1

       And that ends a very solid, very fruitful day for India with the
        bat, reaching a score of 278 for two.
       The highlight of the day was undoubtedly a scintillating hundred
        from Sehwag, 147 runs coming from 206 balls with hardly a chance
        offered.
       Bangar gave him excellent suppport at the other end, making a
        stolid but invaluable 55, giving Sehwag the freedom to play his
        shots at the other end.
       The West Indian bowling, of course, was nothing to write home about
        either.
       The pacemen, except for Merv Dillon, bowled without luck or
        inspiration, but the real blow for Hooper will be the performance
        of Nagamootoo.
       Being the only spinner in the team, Hooper would have looekd to him
        to pprovide many breakthroughs on the subcontinent, but no luck
        there.
       Nagamootoo was played very easily indeed, first by Sehwag and
        Bangar, and then by Dravid and Tendulkar. The leg-spinner went for
        70 runs in 21 overs.
       Slim hope in the third session, when Dillon snapped up first Bangar
        and then Sehwag in the same spell, turned non-existent when Dravid
        and Tendulkar - on his home ground - played till close without any
        trouble.
       The Wets Indies, in fact, are the team in trouble at the momenth,
        and when they take the field tomorrow, they will have to pray for
        some quick wickets to get a chance in this game.
       Whether that happens or not, is of course in tomorrow's realm. So
        join us at 9:30 IST, 04:00 GMT for all the action from the
        Wankhede. Till then, good night.
       Welcome to the second day's play at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai
       The Indian batsmen, Dravid and Tendulkar come on to the wicket
       Dravid will be facing the first ball of the day

  90.1 Dillon to Dravid, no run, on the middle and leg, turned to square
        leg
       3 slips
  90.2 Dillon to Dravid, no run, outside the off, good bounce, Jacobs
        doesn't collect well and drops the ball
  90.3 Dillon to Dravid, no run, outside the off, left alone, once again a
        good carry
       this indicates that West Indian bowlers were not bending their back
        yesterday at all
  90.4 Dillon to Dravid, one run, on the middle and leg, good bounce once
        again, turned to fine leg for the first run of the day
       fielding changes for Tendulkar
       a thirdman comes to effect besides 3 slips
  90.5 Dillon to Tendulkar, no run, outside the off, played to point.
        Hints of outside edge
  90.6 Dillon to Tendulkar, no run, outside the off, short and bouncing.
        Tendulkar does well to weave away from the ball, and lets it go
        through

R Dravid 29* (75b 3x4) SR Tendulkar 35* (84b 5x4)

       a very good first over by Dillon. There is life in the pitch if the
        bowler puts a little bit more effort
       Pedro Collins to share the new ball with Dillon
       left arm over the wicket
  91.1 Collins to Dravid, no run, loose first ball, slow and well pitched
        up outside the off, Dravid goes for the cover drive but mistimes
  91.2 Collins to Dravid, no run, well pitched up on the legs, rapped on
        the pads, big shout from Collins but no support from other
        fielders. Asoka de Silva is not interested
  91.3 Collins to Dravid, no run, on the stumps, played defensively back
        to the bowler
  91.4 Collins to Dravid, one run, on the off, pushed to point and a quick
        run. A bit of overthrow but no additional runs
       Tendulkar to face Collins for the first time today
  91.5 Collins to Tendulkar, no run, on the off, angling away from the
        right hander, left alone
  91.6 Collins to Tendulkar, no run, similar ball and left alone

  92.1 Dillon to Dravid, no run, outside the off, edged! but the ball
        falls short of second slip. Early morning jitters for Dravid
       it may be prudent for the slips to stand further ahead
  92.2 Dillon to Dravid, one run, short in to the ribs, tucked away to
        square leg, Dravid escapes to the other end
       3 slips in place, first slip standing well behind
  92.3 Dillon to Tendulkar, no run, fast on the off, squares Tendulkar up,
        played to covers but not much grace in that defense
       Dillon has been impressive today so far
  92.4 Dillon to Tendulkar, OUT: outside the off, takes a faint edge in to
        the gloves of Jacobs! Dillon strikes and the crowd is stunned.
        Tendulkar starts walking without waiting for the Umpire's finger

       That looked a bit soft dismissal, given that Tendulkar could have
        easily left the ball to the keeper
       Dillon is the man for West Indies, as he break through once again,
        this is exactly what they wanted
       Captain Saurav Ganguly to the wicket now, doubtless will expect a
        few in the rib cage from Dillon
  92.5 Dillon to Ganguly, no run, outside the off, good carry, through to
        keeper
       There is a forward short leg now in place for Ganguly
  92.6 Dillon to Ganguly, no run, on the stumps, played defensively back
        to the bowler

        the first authoritative shot of the day comes from Dravid
  93.4 Collins to Dravid, no run, pitched on the middle, ball moved away
        and kept low, and beats Dravid. Jacobs collcts it at the knee
        level after couple of bounces
       that will make the batsmen think twice
  93.5 Collins to Dravid, no run, pitched up on the off, played back to
        the bowler

        side, a bit harmless this one
  94.2 Dillon to Ganguly, no run, on the off, good height, played to point
        defensively
  94.3 Dillon to Ganguly, two runs, slower ball on the legs, pushed to
        vacant mid on, they take two and Ganguly wants a tihrd but is sent
        back by Dravid
       Ganguly off the mark
       Dillon starts to run, Ganguly backs off, Umpire stops Dillon on the
        tracks
  94.4 Dillon to Ganguly, no run, expected bouncer from an angry Dillon,
        but down the legside and harmlessss
  94.5 Dillon to Ganguly, no run, outside the off, angling away and
        Ganguly flashes and misses! lucky there
  94.6 Dillon to Ganguly, no run, on the stumps, played to point

        as well, hits the arm and rolls to onside, Jacobs picks up
       Dillon will be the player to watch today morning
  96.2 Dillon to Dravid, no run, outside the off, played to point
       Dravid looks better equipped to deal with Dillon though
  96.3 Dillon to Dravid, two runs, driven past the bowler, outfield much
        faster in the V, so couple of runs
  96.4 Dillon to Dravid, no run, on the stumps, well behind the line of
        the ball and defends it well
  96.5 Dillon to Dravid, no run, on the stumps, played to covers

  97.2 Cuffy to Ganguly, two runs, on the legs, turned past square leg

        a fielder there
  97.4 Cuffy to Ganguly, no run, outside the off, left alone

       Ganguly is disappointed and seems to indicate that the ball might
        have gone to the pads after the bat, but Asoka doesn't seem to
        think so. There may also be doubts of whether it would have missed
        the off stump, but all in all, a big blow to India and one
       that West Indies would happily accept
       that wuicket came from nowhere as Cuffy never looked threatening to
        take any wicket here
       replays indicate that the ball landed outside the leg stump (strike
        zone) and cut in fairly sharply
  98.1 Dillon to Dravid, no run, on the stumps, played defensively to
        covers
  98.2 Dillon to Dravid, no run, well pitched up, played straight to the
        bowler
  98.3 Dillon to Dravid, no run, outside the off, pushes to short covers,
        Dravid wants a run and comes half way down the track, Laxman not
        interested. India certainly do not want a run out at this stage
  98.4 Dillon to Dravid, no run, turned to square leg
  98.5 Dillon to Dravid, no run, played to mid on

Match State: Stumps - Day 2

       West Indies are 33/2, they need another 225 runs to avoid follow
        on.
       We will be back tomorrow at 0930 Hrs IST, 0400 Hrs GMT. Do join us
        then. So long.
       Good Morning!
       Hello and Welcome to the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai
       Today is the third day of the first Test match between India and
        West Indies
       We had brilliant sunshine for the first two days, and sadly we have
        overcast conditions now
       There is a slight drizzle too
       Only two wickets fell in the first day. Nine were to fall in the
        second day though, India from a position of building up a huge
        score were bowled out for 457
       Rahul Dravid (100) had to retire hurt.
       West Indies requiring 258 to avoid follow on, have lost both the
        openers - Gayle (7) and Wavell Hinds (1)
       The forecast for the day is: mixed clouds and sun with scattered
        thunderstorms.
       The umpires and players are in the middle
       We are all set for the start on the third day's play
       Conditions are still very much overcast
       It is going to be Harbhajan Singh to bowl to Sarwan
  14.1 Harbhajan Singh to Sarwan, no run, turn and bounce straight away,
        Sarwan takes the ball on the body
  14.2 Harbhajan Singh to Sarwan, no run, pitched outside the off, turning
        in, takes it on the pad
  14.3 Harbhajan Singh to Sarwan, one run, played with the turn, just
        behind square, takes a single
       Dillon to take strike now
  14.4 Harbhajan Singh to Dillon, no run, fires this one full, Dillon digs
        it out
  14.5 Harbhajan Singh to Dillon, no run, quicker through the air again,
        Dillon stretches forward, well in control over this forward
        defensive push
  14.6 Harbhajan Singh to Dillon, no run, doosra! Dillon has no clue about
        it, looks like that took some bat, ball pops up in the air towards
        the off side, loud shouts of catch it, ball lands safely beyond
        the reach of the fielder at silyy point

End of over 15 (1 run) West Indies 34/2 (trail by 423 runs)

       With the overcast conditions and relatively a new ball, one would

        runs and lost 2 wickets
       Good start for the Aussies against Pakistan in Sharjah, Pakistan
        are in trouble - three wickets down for just ten runs on tha

        past the Indian captain at min-off
  44.4 Khan to Chanderpaul, no run, wide delivery outside the off, driven
        straight to the cover fielder
       Interesting period of play here
       This could be a vital phase
  44.5 Khan to Chanderpaul, two runs, overpitched and on the pads, angling
        in to the pads as well, there is no way Chanderpaul will miss out,
        flicked well past midwicket

        a run though

        Hopper, the ball bumps and flies into the air, Tendulkar throws
        the ball up and celebrates a spectator catch! Zaheer Khan too is
        fooled and makes a half-hearted appeal
  46.6 Khan to Hooper, FOUR, on the off, fullish, driven back past the
        bowler, the ball runs away down the wicket and Srinath provides an
        able escort service, he runs along with the ball right upto the
        ropes and sees it go over. Don't be too hard on him though, he is
        not getting an

Match State: Stumps - Day 3

       Good day's cricket for India today at the Wankhede Stadium. They
        picked up nine wickets in the day.
       West Indies resumed on 33/2 and were bowled out for 157 in the
        first innings.
       Only Chanderpaul (54) put up some sort of resistance.
       It was a bit surprising to see Harbhajan Singh and Kumble start the
        proceedings, given the overcast conditions in Mumbai.
       When he got a chance to bowl, Zaheer Khan bowled exceptionally
        well. He picked up four wickets.
       So did Kumble, picking up four wickets.
       Srinath was a big disappointment - trotting in and bowling medium
        pace, when all it took was to bowl fast and straight.
       West Indies's first target of 258 to avoid follow on was a bit too
        much for them.
       Well, they fell short of that target by 101 runs to be all out for
        157.
       Asked to follow on, Windies made a brisk start to their second
        innings.
       Wavell Hinds was in superb form, smacking the ball to all parts of
        the field.
       He was dismissed after making 40 runs off 37 balls with nine
        boundaries, bowled by Harbhajan Singh
       They finished the day at 91/1, Gayle has applied himself very well
        and is on 34*.
       Sarwan survived a barrage of bouncers from birthday boy Sanjay
        Bangar. Bangar was bowling quicker than Srinath and had Sarwan in
        all kinds of trouble.
       Sarwan survived all that and is unbeaten on nine.
       West Indies still trail by 209 runs.
       Do join us tomorrow at 0930 Hrs IST, 0400 Hrs GMT. Thank you
       Hello and Good Morning
       Welcome to the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai for the fourth day's play
        in the first Test match between India and West Indies
       Overcast conditions here, almost like what it was yesterday
       There was some overnight showers
       We are about 15 mins from the start of play
       Play is about to start here
       The umpires and players are in the middle
       We are all set for the start, Sarwan to take strike, Kumble to bowl
       West Indies still require 209 runs to avoid follow on
       Sorry, not a follow on, Innings defeat
       Here we go
  27.1 Kumble to Sarwan, no run, on leg and middle, defended
  27.2 Kumble to Sarwan, no run, sharp bounce outside the off, Patel
        gathers it nicely
  27.3 Kumble to Sarwan, no run, defended
  27.4 Kumble to Sarwan, no run, gets right behind the line and defends
  27.5 Kumble to Sarwan, no run
  27.6 Kumble to Sarwan, no run

End of over 28 (maiden) West Indies 91/1 (trail by 209 runs)

CH Gayle 34* (80b 4x4) RR Sarwan 9* (55b)

       Zaheer Khan to bowl now
       He should be able to get the ball to swing around a bit with this
        overcast conditions
  28.1 Khan to Gayle, FOUR, Gayle! Makes it swing the other way, smacks it
        over cover point for four
  28.2 Khan to Gayle, one run, on the pads, tucked around the corner for a
        single
  28.3 Khan to Sarwan, no run, well up to the batsman, Sarwan shuffles
        across, pushes it to mid-on
  28.4 Khan to Sarwan, no run, not much of pace, right up to the batsman,
        just outside the off, Sarwan shuffling across again, defends
       Sarwan was really rattled by Bangar's short pitched bowling last
        evening
  28.5 Khan to Sarwan, FOUR, juicy half volley! Punishes it with glee,
        cracking extra cover drive, everything so perfect about that shot,
        very positive too, four!
       That brings up the 100 runs on the scoreboard
  28.6 Khan to Sarwan, no run, full and outside the off, can't see the
        ball swinging much, Sarwan in no trouble in driveing the ball to
        mid-off

        flight, goes for the drive, takes a thick outside edge

       Patel has had enough of this bounce, asks for a helmet
  47.4 Kumble to Chanderpaul, no run, another nasty ball, clips the pad

       It's all over here at the Wankhede stadium
       India have recorded their biggest ever win against the West Indies
        at home, by an innings and 112 runs
       India winning by an innings and 112 runs to go 1-0 in this three
        Test series
       Harbhajan Singh picking up 7/48, his second seven-wicket-haul at
        the Wankhede
       It is also his tenth 5-wicket haul, only in his 29th Test match
       The West Indies batsmen found their feet stuck against Kumble and
        Harbhajan Singh - with the wicket offering the spinners a lot of
        turn and bounce, survival was always a tough ask for the Windies
        batsmen
       Chanderpaul batted well again, defying the spinners. He remained
        unbeaten on 36
       From the moment Carl Hooper (1) patted a a return catch to
        Harbhajan Singh - it looked all over
       There has been very useful contributions to this Indian victory,
        apart from that of the spinners
       Sehwag played a brilliant innings on the first day to make 147
        runs. Dravid went on to make his fourth hundred in a row
       And it is Virender Sehwag who has been named Man of the Match
       Young Parthiv Patel did a wonderful job behind the stumps, not an
        easy task to keep - when the ball is jumping and turning
       Zaheer Khan bowled well in the first innings to pick four wickets
       West Indies will have to play at a completely different level to
        avoid a 3-0 drubbing in this series.
