In a match filled with dramatic twists, Sachin Tendulkar’s resilient century, VVS Laxman’s classy batting and Ashish Nehra’s fiery spell helped India secure their first Test win in the Caribbean since 1976. After West Indies captain Carl Hooper chose to bowl first, India recovered strongly through Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar. Tendulkar’s determined hundred was his 29th Test century, equalling Sir Don Bradman’s legendary tally. VVS Laxman added a valuable unbeaten 69 as India posted a competitive total. West Indies fought back through Brian Lara, Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Carl Hooper, keeping the contest alive till the final day. Chasing 313, Lara and Hooper threatened to take the game away from India before Ashish Nehra produced a sensational spell to remove both legends in quick succession. Chris Gayle and Chanderpaul added more tension with a stubborn partnership, but India finally held their nerve to seal a famous 37-run victory in one of the greatest Test thrillers in the Caribbean. 🏏 Match Highlights: • Sachin Tendulkar’s historic 29th Test century • Rahul Dravid and Laxman’s crucial partnerships • Ashish Nehra’s match-turning spell • Brian Lara and Carl Hooper’s resistance • Chris Gayle and Chanderpaul’s tense stand • India’s first Test win in West Indies since 1976 • Classic Queen’s Park Oval thriller 📅 Match Details: India vs West Indies 2nd Test, Port of Spain April 19-23, 2002 Queen’s Park Oval, Trinidad #indiavswestindies #cricketmax #highlights #sachintendulkar #ashishnehra #cricket #indvswi #testseries
