Team India secured a decisive 68-run victory over West Indies in the T20I series opener on Friday (July 29) at the Brian Lara Stadium. With the win, the visitors went 1-0 up in the five-match series.

The hosts won the toss and elected to field first on the surface. India skipper Rohit Sharma led from the front with his impactful knock of 64 runs. The Men in Blue were able to post an impressive total of 190, thanks to Dinesh Karthik's late flurry (41 off 19).

The visitors dominated the second half of the game as well. The West Indian batters struggled to get going against the Indian bowlers and ultimately finished 122/8 after 20 overs.

A number of fans took to social media to troll West Indies following their underwhelming performance in the 1st T20I. Here are some of the reactions:

@bhogleharsha West Indies can't read their own home pitches properly? Thats very sad. Slow bowlers were clearly winning on that pitch

It is worth mentioning that this was Rohit Sharma's 50th win as Indian captain. The visitors have dominated the proceedings so far in white-ball encounters.

They completed a stunning 3-0 ODI series whitewash over the hosts ahead of the T20I rubber.
