This was India's first Test series win under the captaincy of Shubman Gill
Shubman Gill's stunning start to his Test captaincy tenure continued as India beat the West Indies on Tuesday in the second and final match of the home series. KL Rahul scored a valiant half-century, while stitching an 80-run stand for the second wicket alongside Sai Sudharsan as India chased down the target of 121 on the fifth morning to secure a seven-wicket win and subsequently a 2-0 whitewash over the Caribbean nation. The hosts had earlier defeated Windies by an innings and 140 runs in the series opener last week at the Narendra Modi Stadium.

After being bundled out for 248 in response to India's 518/5 declared, the Windies showed nerves of steel to respond bravely, first with a top-order resistance and then a 79-run 10th wicket stand, taking a 120-run lead in the match. In response, India lost Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored 175 in the first innings, for just 8 runs, but Rahul and Sudharsan remained unbeaten until the close of play on Day 4.
