       (Innings):  7/44  by IWG Johnson (Australia), 3rd Test 1954-1955
        against West Indies
       (Match):  11/121 by Imran Khan (Pakistan), 1st Test 1987-1988
        against West Indies
       India and West Indies have played 33 times in the Caribbean Islands
        and 5 times at this venue and all 5 matches have been draws
       India have managed to win just 2 out of those 33 Tests, where as
        West Indies have won on 14 occasions
       Getting out of history...
       Indians have had injury problems well before this series has
        started - Sehwag couldn't tour due to a severe injury
       After reaching here, they have further lost Harbhajan who injured
        himself during the opening tour match - Sarandeep has hurried
        flown in from India
       Lots of talks about will India manage to achieve the rare overseas
        Test win as the West Indies are not that big a force to reckon as
        they were during the 70s and 80s
       Ganguly has lead India to 2 overseas Test wins (Bangladesh &
        Zimbabwe) and has voiced out that he is very confident to get the
        third one here
       The Indian team looks good on paper, certainly better than the
        hosts, but can they deliver?
       The batting still mainly revolves around the little genius Sachin
        Tendulkar, similarly Windies' batting depends on Brian Lara
        heavily
       The series is even branded as the battle for supremacy between
        Tendulkar and Lara - don't miss out!
       Lara is back after a break due to a severe injury he sustained in
        Sri Lanka where he scored heavily though they lost all 3 Tests
       Tendulkar also has had a break and missed out 5 ODIs against
        Zimbabwe - but, both of them have been in fine form in the longer
        version of the game
       There will also be good support for Tendulkar from Das, Laxman,
        Ganguly, 'The Wall' Dravid and the newcomer Sanjay Bangar
       Gayle, Sarwan, Chanderpaul, Hooper and Williams will support Lara
        with Murray donning the keeper's gloves
       It will be the 'famous' Dasgupta for India who will stand behind
        the stumps. Will he just stand or collect properly?
       The Indian bowling is spearheaded by Srinath, ably assisted by
        Zaheer Khan - Nehra and Yohannan are waiting in the wings
       Dillon and Cuffy are the main pacers for the Windies and the new
        comer Sanford promises heavily
       Spin is not the main department when you are about to watch Test
        matches in West Indies, but this time, the pitches look a bit slow
        than usual
       Nagamootoo and Hooper will be the spinners for the hosts while the
        visitors bank heavily on Kumble as Harbhajan is ruled out for this
        Test
       West Indies have decided to leave out Marlon Black and Ryan Hinds
        from the squad of thirteen
       Hooper spins the coin and Ganguly doesnt call rightly
       Hooper decides to bat first
