Former veteran player Viv Richards has given a big statement regarding West Indies losing by an innings and 140 runs in the first test. Caribbean cricket legends Viv Richards and Richie Richardson have expressed hope that West Indies will bounce back in the Delhi Test. Let us tell you that the second test match between India and West Indies will be played in Delhi from October 10.

Speaking to news agency IANS, Viv Richards said, “I think West Indies will bounce back and play competitive cricket. Only competition can challenge the Indian team. Certainly India has won the first Test, but I have confidence in my team that they will give a tough time to the Indian team in the second Test. For this, instead of depending on any particular player, I am hopeful of a good performance from the entire team.”

Viv Richardson further said, “I think West Indies will make a strong comeback in the second Test and will perform better than the first Test. West Indies is a young team, whereas the Indian team is very strong. The Indian team has very talented players along with experience, so it will not be easy to challenge this team. The Indian team is definitely very strong, but West Indies have to understand that this is a game. You have to come prepared against the opposition team. Show confidence. Will happen. Without adventurous cricket, it is difficult to challenge Team India.”

West indies new test captain roston chase: There has been a lot of stir in Test cricket recently. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have retired from the Test, due to the World Test Championship Final (WTC 2025 Final), many players from Australia and South Africa can miss the playoff stage of IPL 2025. Now the captain of the West Indies Test team has been made a player who has not played any Test match for 800+ days. Craig Braithwaite was commanding the Caribbean Test team for the last 8 years, but now this responsibility has been handed over to Roston Chase.

The West Indies Cricket Board said in its statement that Roston Chase has been selected from a difficult and modern selection process. There were 6 candidates for the captaincy, who were interviewed and their leadership skills were tested in many ways. At the same time, the team’s new head coach Darren Sammy said that Roston Chase has the ability by which he can do the work of taking the team forward.

No Test played from 800+ Days

Roston Chase played the last Test against South Africa in March 2023. He has not been seen in white jersey since then. Despite this, giving him the captaincy of the Test team is a really shocking decision. Roston Chase is an all -rounder player, who has so far taken 85 wickets in addition to scoring 2,265 runs in his 49 -match Test career.

Why Craig Brathwaite removed

Craig Braithwaite first captained the West Indies Test team in 2017. Under his captaincy, West Indies played a total of 39 Test matches, out of which he got only 10 wins. It was 2022 when Brathwaite personally scored runs at an average of 62, but after that his form has also declined. Since 2023, Brathwaite has scored just 846 runs in 17 Tests.
