Meanwhile, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has already confirmed that the team is not making any significant changes in the second and final Test of the series. He, however, added that the think tank will take a call on Day 1 of the Test by looking at the surface.

“I don’t think there will be any drastic changes. But whatever conditions are available on the five days of the Test, based on that, we will make that decision. I will expect no difference in this Test. I am sure they (Windies) will bounce back and it will be exciting for both teams,” Sharma said in the press conference.

The Indian skipper Rohit Sharma is also elated to see Yashasvi Jaiswal make the most of the opportunity in the first Test. He is excited for the next phase of the Indian Test squad as the 36-year-old stated that he was happy to see that young cricketers are coming and making a difference in the middle.

“Transition has to happen, whether today or tomorrow but I am happy that our boys who are coming in are doing well. And our role is important as we have to give them role clarity. Now it's up to them how they want to prepare and perform for the team.  And we rely on those individuals and obviously, they are the future of Indian cricket and they will take Indian cricket to greater heights,” Rohit added.
