India's Predicted XI vs West Indies, 1st Test: Will Ishan Kishan Make The Cut?

India will begin their World Test Championship cycle on Wednesday when they take on West Indies in the first Test of the two-match series at Windsor Park in Dominica. The Indian team is set to hit the transition button with the much-anticipated debut of Yashasvi Jaiswal in the two-Test series against a wounded West Indies, which is searching for a road to redemption. Cheteshwar Pujara's highly-debated exit has created a slot in the Indian top-order and the immensely talented Mumbai left-hander will hope that he lives up to his 'name' and promise that he has shown at the first-class level before being thrown at the deep end of the pool.

Here's what we think could be India's Playing XI against West Indies for the 1st Test:

Rohit Sharma:The Indian skipper will look to give his team a brilliant start as he will eye a big score. In the recent outing against Australia at the WTC final, Rohit got out for just 15 in the first innings but scored 43 in the second one. The batting powerhouse is definitely capable of much more than that.

Yashasvi Jaiswal:The 21-year-old powerful batter is having the time of his life as a successful season of IPL paved his way into the national team. The youngster is all but confirmed to open the batting with Rohit Sharma and it will be a brilliant occasion for him to make a sparkling first impression.

Shubman Gill: The young talented opener needs no introduction as he has been grabbing a lot of attention in the past few months. However, he failed to leave a mark against Australia in the WTC final and could score only 31 runs in the entire match. Gill will look to bounce back against Windies in the first Test and at No. 3, he will look to add another dimension to his game.
