'Maybe 15-20 runs a little bit short' - John Campbell shares candid take on West Indies' 1st innings total in Thiruvananthapuram

During the opening fixture of the series against India at Greenfield International Stadium, the visiting squad managed to put up a total of 295 runs for the loss of seven wickets within their allotted fifty overs. Opening batsman John Campbell reflected on the scoreboard after the innings concluded, suggesting that the side may have fallen slightly short of an optimal target despite building a solid foundation through an initial 135-run partnership alongside his batting partner.

After the opposing side elected to field first upon winning the coin toss, Campbell anchored the early phase with a disciplined knock of 62 runs from sixty deliveries. He later noted that scoring became increasingly difficult as the leather ball lost its hardness during the day-night encounter.
