India recorded a comprehensive win in the first ODI ensuring an 8-wicket win within just 42 overs despite being handed a stiff target of 323.

West Indies batsman Shimron Hetmyer ensured a formidable total for the visitors with a 78 ball 106 further backed by vital contributions from skipper Jason Holder, opener Kieran Powell who pitched in with a half-century. 

However, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma chased down the mammoth total without much ado scoring 140 and 152 runs respectively, despite the early dismissal of in-form batsman Shikhar Dhawan. 

The Men-in-Blue will be looking to ensure another dominant win in the second ODI at Vishakapatnam.
