India, fresh from their Asia Cup victory, are set to face West Indies in the first Test starting Thursday in Ahmedabad, with captain Shubman Gill's team being clear favorites against an undermanned Caribbean side on a green-top pitch. The match holds significance for World Test Championship points, with India currently placed third in the standings, as both teams prepare for different weather conditions and a notably green pitch at the venue.
This Test marks the first of four home games for India in the WTC 2025-27 cycle, following their impressive 2-2 draw in England that kept them ahead of the English team in rankings.
