Antiga: Rain has called for an early end to day one play as India remain at 203/6 at stumps on Day 1. Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja remain on the ground and will continue the inning.

Ajinkya Rahane's 18th half-century anchored India's revival to 203 for six on the opening day of the first Test against the West Indies. He was cleaned up by Shannon Gabriel as India go six wickets down.

 Earlier, Jason Holder won the toss and elected to bowl first. Kohli said he would have batted anyways. India did not opt for Rohit Sharma and R Ashwin and went in with three genuine pacers and Ravindra Jadeja as the spinner.

Let us tell you that, The West Indies have made a change in their squad ahead of Thursday's first Test against India. The West Indies selectors have had to do so due to the injury of all-rounder Chemo Paul. Kimo Paul has been out of the team. The 21-year-old Keemu Paul has played three Tests, 12 ODIs and 16 T20 Internationals. Paul is a fast bowler who can also bat useful in the lower order.
