IND vs WI 1st Test Match Date, Time: It is back to the grind of Test cricket for India after a roller coaster ride in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) where they won the Asia Cup T20 title. Before that, India had started a new era under the captaincy of Shubman Gill with a Test series in England that is being regarded as among the greatest of this century. The two-match Test series against the West Indies is India’s first at home since they suffered a humiliating 3-0 whitewash at the hands of New Zealand last year. For starters, India’s storied dominance at home ended after having won every series all the way back to 2013. Moreover, it ended up being the last Test at home involving the senior trio of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin.
