John Campbell remained unbeaten on 19 along with Shai Hope on 6 at the Bharat Ratna Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>With the win, West Indies became the first team since 2002 to win a Test match when a visiting team chose to field in Asia. Previously too, it was West Indies, who won against Bangladesh in Dhaka.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Earlier, it seemed like Windies skipper Jason Holder had erred at the toss but Cornwall&#39;s 7-fer gave the visitors a firm advantage on the first day and that was further consolidated by a Shamarh Brooks&#39; maiden Test hundred with help from John Campbell (55) and Shane Dowrich (43) as they took a first-innings lead of 90.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Afghanistan started their second innings on a bright note as the openers stitched a 53-run stand. However, Cornwall once again ran wreaked havoc in the second innings with Roston Chase (3\/10), while Holder finished off the tail on Friday morning as Afghanistan bundled out for 120, giving Windies a meagre target of 33.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Afghanistan were guilty of wasting starts in the first innings and they followed the same pattern in the second essay as well.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>West Indies will now face India in the three T20Is and as many ODIs starting December 6 in Hyderabad.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Brief scores: <\/strong>Afghanistan 187 and 120 all out; West Indies 277 all out and 33\/1 win by nine wickets.<\/p>\r\n",
