West Indies Vs India News

India has dominated white-ball cricket since the 2023 World Cup, winning 23 of 24 matches, including the 2024 T20 World Cup and 2025 Champions Trophy. Scroll down to know why its one of the greatest white ball run ever. 

India made many changes to the batting order. Aakash Chopra was not too impressed with the team’s approach. India beat West Indies by 5 wickets in the 1st ODI.

India dominated the Test series against West Indies. The side will now head into the ODI series. Ishan Kishan and Sanju Samson are the 2 wicket-keeping options.

West Indies women's team captain Stafanie Taylor has been ruled out of the ongoing five-match T20 International series against India, Cricket West Indies (CWI) announced on Sunday.

Ahead of the series, West Indies included former cricketers Brian Lara and Ramnaresh Sarwan in the pre-series camp.

One thing to worry about for the Indians is the inclusion of swashbuckling batsman Chris Gayle into the 13-man squad. The left-handed batsman has been the best when considered T20 cricket. The southpaw will be marking a return after 16 months, and too in a match venued at his hometown.

After winning the five-match ODI series 3-1, India will certainly have an upperhand despite the presence of Gayle, who can single-handedly swing fortunes especially in the shortest format.

After the quick departure of the openers, and then two experienced middle order batsman sent packing, India stood at 63 for four, completely shattered with hope. But then Virat (122) had combined with Kedar Jadhav (120) to stitch an incredible 200-run partnership as India clinched victory by three wickets.

After Team India's victory over West Indies in the final ODI encounter at Kingston, Jamaica, skipper Virat Kohli found himself amid a chorus of questions surrounding MS Dhoni's retirement. Kohli extended his unwavering support towards Dhoni, clarifying that his predecessor is an integral part of the team.

Contrary to expectations, Kohli did not experiment much in the five-match ODI series against ninth-ranked West Indies, but he defended his decision after India wrapped up the rubber 3-1.

The century notched up by the skipper was his 28th in ODI, putting him alongside Sri Lankan great Sanath Jayasuriya on the list of most tons in the 50-over format.

Asked to bowl, comeback man Mohammed Shami bagged four wickets as an under-fire India produced a disciplined bowling effort to restrict West Indies to a modest 205 for nine.

The series appeared done and dusted when India began a modest 190-run chase but their intimidating batting line-up fell short by 11 runs in a stunning turnaround on a slow pitch.

Gayle has been called forth to replace Lendl Simmons. Jason Holder, the ODI and Test captain, has been rested for the game.

Yuvraj met with the 28-year old West Indian and gifted him a 'YouWeCan' bat, in a bid to promote his charity foundation with the same name.

In a rare Twitter post by Indian batsman Shikhar Dhawan, the left-handed opener shared a video of 'Tarzan and Jane' exercising in gym, on Thursday. Scratching your head, right?

The Indian men's team is currently touring West Indies for a five-match ODI series. After registering two comprehensive victories in the second and the third match, Virat Kohli and his men succumbed to an 11-run defeat in the fourth ODI at Antigua.

As for Dhoni, he is presently touring with the Indian squad in the Caribbeans for a five-match ODI series against the Windies. India currently lead by 2-1, with the final match slated to be played at Jamaica, on July 6.  

The Delhi-based batsman went ahead to praise West Indies bowling attack and how they added to the concern over the Indian batting line-up.

Enroute to his 54 runs off 14 deliveries, the 35-year-old's strike rate stood as 47.36. It is his lowest ever in 149 innings where he has scored 25 or more runs.
