    "editor1": "<p><strong>IND vs WI, 1st Test<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Cricket Tips<\/strong>:&nbsp;The test series between India and West Indies is all set to begin. The first game will be held at Narendra Modi Stadium at 9:30 between October 2 and 6. This game will begin the new era in Indian cricket.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>This is the first home test that India will play after the retirements of Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Ravichandran Ashwin. So, the new blood will have the chance to cash in. India will be without Rishabh Pant, who is recovering from injury.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>West Indies will be without Kraigg Braithwaite and Shamar Joseph, two of their premier Test stars. So, they will also be slightly inexperienced.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><meta name=\"generator\" content=\"quillbot-gc\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>IND vs WI: Match Details<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Date<\/strong>: October 2-6 (Thursday-Monday)<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Time<\/strong>: 9:30 AM IST<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Venue<\/strong>: Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>IND vs WI: Live Streaming Details<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p>The live action of the test series will be broadcasted on the Star Sports Networks on Indian cable TV networks.

India are likely to go with 3 spinners, and the pitch might start turning from the second day. However, there is a prediction of rain as well, making it some respite for the fast bowlers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>IND vs WI: Possible XIs<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>India<\/strong>: Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill (c), Devdutt Padikkal, Dhruv Jurel (wk), Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Washington Sundar, Md.
