Jadeja Shines in India vs West Indies Test 2025

The India vs West Indies Test 2025 ended in just three days as India clinched a dominant win by an innings and 140 runs in Ahmedabad. Ravindra Jadeja produced a match-winning all-round performance, scoring an unbeaten 104 and following it with figures of 4 for 54. His efforts, along with Mohammed Siraj’s relentless pace, ensured India wrapped up the series opener in emphatic style.

Siraj and Bumrah Trouble West Indies Batting

During the India vs West Indies, the visitors crumbled twice under pressure from India’s bowling attack. Mohammed Siraj took seven wickets across both innings, including 3 for 31 in the second, while Jasprit Bumrah added crucial breakthroughs with his pace and accuracy. West Indies were bowled out for 162 and 146, with only Alick Athanaze showing resistance through a composed 38 in the second innings.

West Indies Batting Struggles Continue

The India vs West Indies Test 2025 highlighted once again the lack of depth in the visitors’ batting order. Athanaze fought hard, using reverse sweeps and cover drives effectively, but received little support from teammates. John Campbell and Tagenarine Chanderpaul failed to provide a solid start, while Brandon King and others succumbed to Jadeja’s variations. West Indies’ inability to build partnerships meant their wait for a Test win in India stretched into its 31st year.

Jadeja and India Regain Momentum

India vs West Indies Test was also significant for Jadeja, who showcased why he remains one of the best all-rounders in world cricket. His ability to dismiss set batters while contributing crucial runs gave India complete control of the match. At 36, his value to the side remains unquestionable, particularly in the absence of senior players like R. Ashwin and Virat Kohli.

Looking Ahead to the Next India vs West Indies Test 2025

West Indies now have limited time to regroup before the second Test in Delhi. With their batting under scrutiny and bowling missing key names, major improvements are needed. India, on the other hand, will aim to continue their dominance and extend their unbeaten home record against West Indies.
