    What's the story

    The Indian cricket team thrashed West Indies in the recently-concluded first Test match in Antigua.

    With this victory, the Indian team scripted some crucial records.

    Here are the records that can be scripted.

    Kohli has smashed 746 Test runs against West Indies in his career so far.

    He has notched two tons and four fifties.

    Another 54 runs will see him get to the 800-run mark against WI.

    He will be the 15th Indian batsman to do so.

    Kohli has 25 career Test hundreds.

    Another century will see him equaling the tally of Gary Sobers (26).

    Indian bowlers

    Indian bowlers could script these records

    Jasprit Bumrah has 55 career Test scalps in just 11 matches.
