Aaron, Kohli in Team India for Wankhede Test

On the opening day of the third and final cricket test at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai, the West Indies were 80 for no loss in the first innings against India, at lunch. Adrian Barath on 37 and Kraigg Brathwaite on 35 were at the crease. Earlier, the tourists, after opting to bat first, got off to a decent start, with both the openers playing the fierce Indian bowlers with aplomb. For this test, two changes have been made in the Indian side. Virat Kohli has replaced Yuvraj Singh, while Paceman Varun Aaron, who makes a debut, has been included in place of Umesh Yadav. On the other hand, the most experienced Shivanarine Chanderpaul has been dropped from the West Indian side, due to a calf strain. In place of Chanderpaul, Keiron Powell has been included for this test.MS Dhoni led Team India have already bagged this 3-match series, by winning the first two tests.
