Can WI challenge India in 2nd Test?
Hindustan Times Lucknow
|October 10, 2025
There's a Test to be played but no one quite seems to think it will be a test.
So outmatched were the West Indies during the innings and 140-run defeat at Ahmedabad during the first Test and such is the depth of India’s squad, especially at home, that few are expecting a contest.
If anything, the contest seems to be whether the match will last two days or three. If anything, the debate was whether cricket needs a second tier. No disrespect to the West Indies but the conversation in the pregame press conference was all about how West Indies can find its mojo again. And that was the case when coach Darren Sammy spoke to the media on Wednesday as well.
