India crushed Afghanistan by an innings and 300 runs in the one-off Test on Monday after piling up a huge first-innings total and producing a clinical bowling performance at the Maharaja Singh PCA Stadium in New Chandigarh, 24NewsHD TV reported.
The hosts dominated the match from the outset, declaring their first innings on 564-8 before dismissing Afghanistan twice for 152 and 112 to seal one of their biggest Test victories.
After electing to bat, India built a formidable total.
Shubman Gill led the scoring with a fluent 126 off 177 balls, hitting 15 fours and a six.
He was well supported by KL Rahul, who struck 100 from 165 deliveries, while Rishabh Pant added an aggressive 81.
