North Sound (Antigua), Aug 26: Vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane and pacer Jasprit Bumrah starred in India's record 318-run win over West Indies in the first of the two Test match. Rahane, who scored his ton after a long dry patch of 17 Test matches, described it as "special", while Bumrah felt the team's bowling unit clicked well against the hosts.

Rahane, who played a brilliant knock of 102 runs, was involved in a crucial 135 run partnership with Hanuma Vihari (93) in India's second innings to help his team post a challenging target of 419 runs to the Windies before Bumrah's fifer blew away the opponents.
