Shikhar Dhawan on Wednesday became the first-ever captain of an Indian team that clean swept West Indies on their home soil after the visitors thrashed the home team by 119 runs in the third and final ODI here. “We came here with a really young team.

‘Well done, Shikhar’

“Really well done by Shikhar. I think he led very well. Well done to all of you, terrific performance,” added Dravid.
