India captain Shubman Gill addressed the media ahead of the first Test against West Indies, starting October 2 at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. Gill shared updates on Jasprit Bumrah’s fitness, confirmed Kuldeep Yadav’s selection, and discussed India’s likely team combination for the series opener. The two-match series marks India’s return to red-ball cricket after their Asia Cup 2025 triumph under Suryakumar Yadav, and will also be their first home Test assignment of the new season.
