The much-awaited cricket battle between India and West Indies kicked off in Ahmedabad on Thursday with West Indies captain Roston Chase winning the toss and choosing to bat first in the two-match Test series. But the spotlight soon shifted to Indian batting as talented openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul took center stage against some spirited bowling. The day began with Jayden Seales steaming in to bowl to Yashasvi Jaiswal, who wisely left balls swinging away while carefully selecting his shots. KL Rahul was also quick on his feet defending and driving balls with style. The duo steadily put runs on the board with Jaiswal cracking boundaries through cover point and deep square leg, showing flashes of aggression and control. "Jomel Warrican to Yashasvi Jaiswal, FOUR! BELTED! Full and outside off, Yashasvi Jaiswal smokes it through cover point," echoed the ball-by-ball commentary, highlighting Jaiswal's fine timing.

Rain threatened to spoil the party mid-session, forcing a 22-minute break. However, the groundsmen worked swiftly and play resumed under bright sunshine. Both batsmen remained watchful, skillfully dodging tricky deliveries and capitalizing on loose balls. West Indies bowlers showed good discipline, with tight lines and subtle variations keeping the Indian batsmen on their toes. "No wickets yet, but disciplined bowling from West Indies," noted the live commentary. Despite some scrappy moments, the opening pair’s partnership flourished, providing a solid platform for India’s innings.
