Virat Kohli becomes 1st Indian captain to win two Tests in the Caribbean Island

India’s stunning performance in the fourth test against the West Indies at St. Lucia leads them a remarkable victory..

The proactive style of strokes from the Indian batsman with the likes of Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane helped the Tourists to post a decent target for the hosts. 



Eventually, India have won its third consecutive Test series in the Caribbean Island. Indian tests skipper Virat Kohli has gone a step further as the 27-year-old became the first Indian captain ever to win two tests in the West Indies.

This is also India’s third back to back victory under Kohli’s captaincy, after a 2-1 win against Sri Lanka, followed by a 3-0 massacre of South Africa at home, and now, a surprising 2-0 lead over the West Indies in a four match tests series.

Here is the table showing the record of Indian captains in the West Indies.
