Rohit
Rohit is the 14th Indian to make a century on Test debut

The Mumbai right-hander played a classic innings on his Test debut at his favourite ground – Eden Gardens. West Indies had put up a score of 234 on the board during the first innings of the first Test and India's top-order saw a slump, with the scoreboard reading 83/5.

Rohit entered at number six and played effortlessly, also putting an end to the rough form he had been going through. He became the 14th Indian to score a Test century on his debut.

On the other end was Ravichandran Ashwin, who made a century s himself. Both of them together weaved a wonderful partnership and helped India put up 453 runs on the board. West Innings succumbed to 168 in their second innings, thanks to Mohammed Shami's 5/47, and faced an innings defeat.

Shami's heroics with the ball might have taken the limelight away from Rohit, but his knock was crucial in the victory.
