IND vs WI 1st Test: India's star batter KL Rahul was seen bringing out a unique whistling celebration post-smashing his 11th Test century against West Indies on Friday. After scoring 100 runs along with Dhruv Jurel, who played the role of a second fiddle, the hosts gave the hosts a lead of 56 runs.
While batting against Roston Chase during the 65th over, Rahul had smashed the ball towards the fielder standing at mid-wicket and took the single and scored his hundred.

Rahul batted cautiously and did survive a nervous moment while smashing his second Test century against the West Indies and his first after December 2016.
Till lunch, he had smashed his ton off 192 balls, in which he had smashed 12 fours.
The host started their day at 121/2 and were trailing by 41 runs, and had skittle West Indies out for just 162 runs.

India captain Shubman Gill gifted his wicket away while scoring runs freely.
After being smashed for a brilliant four on the last ball of his previous over by KL Rahul, Khary Pierre had bowled the same ball to Gill on the last ball of the next over.
But the ball was bowled at off-stump, got a leading edge, and Justin Greaves took the catch while standing at first slip.
