Following his memorable debut with a match-winning century, opener Yashasvi Jaiswal said he enjoyed batting with senior teammates like skipper Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, as India downed West Indies by an innings and 141 runs in the first Test. Besides, Ravichandran Ashwin`s spin heroics sent visitors one-up over the hosts in the series at Windsor Park on Friday.

"Preparation was pretty good. We were having a nice session. Spoke a lot to Rahul Dravid sir. Would like to thank all the selectors and Rohit (Sharma) bhai for having faith in me. It is really nice, I have been working for this. I have been focusing on preparing well and having discipline. Playing Test cricket for India is very special and emotional for me. This is just the start, I need to keep my focus and keep working on my cricket. Lot of people helped me through my journey and I want to thank each and everyone of them. It was tremendous batting with the senior players. I look forward to learning more from them," said Jaiswal at the post-match presentation.
