Interesting Fact: India vs West Indies

The first Test match of India's tour of the West Indies will take place in Dominica from July 12 to July 16. This will be just the sixth Test to be staged at Windsor Park, and the first since 2017.

It's interesting to note that the first Test match played in Dominica in July 2011 also featured India and the West Indies. Only Virat Kohli remains with the team for the forthcoming Test among the members of that Indian group. Kohli is not the only member of the 2011 team that is now on the roster, though. The current head coach of India, Rahul Dravid, was a senior player on that team, and Kohli recognised this fact in a statement on his social media pages.
