The India vs West Indies 2nd ODI 2026 turned into one of the most extraordinary batting matches in ODI history as India chased down a massive 406-run target to beat West Indies by eight wickets at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati on September 30.
West Indies appeared to have produced a match-winning total after scoring a record 405/7, powered by centuries from John Campbell, Shai Hope and Amir Jangoo. But India captain Shubman Gill smashed an unbeaten 223 from 133 balls, while Rohit Sharma made 101, as India reached 406/2 in just 43.3 overs. The victory gave India an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match ODI series.
Gill’s innings was also historic. He reached his double century in only 117 balls, the fastest 200 ever recorded in men’s ODI cricket, and finished with the highest individual score ever made in an ODI run chase.

West Indies Smash Their First-Ever 400-Plus ODI Total
India captain Shubman Gill won the toss and decided to bowl first, but West Indies quickly made that decision look expensive.
Despite missing first-ODI centurion Justin Greaves because of a calf injury, the visitors attacked India’s bowlers throughout the innings. Greaves had scored 101 in the series opener but was ruled out of the Guwahati match.
West Indies eventually finished on:
405/7 from 50 overs
It was the highest ODI total in West Indies history and the first time the Caribbean side had crossed 400 in the format. Their previous record was 389 against England in 2019.
John Campbell Sets the Tone With 101
John Campbell provided West Indies with another aggressive start.
He reached his century in just 65 balls before eventually being dismissed for:
101 from 68 balls
His innings contained nine fours and five sixes. West Indies had already reached 96/1 during the Powerplay, putting the Indian attack under immediate pressure.
Campbell and Shai Hope then added 110 runs, establishing the platform for an enormous total.
Shai Hope Scores His 20th ODI Century
West Indies captain Shai Hope continued the momentum with a composed and powerful century.
He scored:
104 from 94 balls
with eight fours and three sixes.
The hundred was the 20th ODI century of Hope’s career and took him past Brian Lara on the list of West Indies’ most prolific ODI century-makers. Hope moved into second place for West Indies, behind only Chris Gayle’s 25 ODI hundreds. icc
Amir Jangoo Top-Scores With 114
Amir Jangoo then produced the highest score of the West Indies innings.
After making an unbeaten 58 in the first ODI, Jangoo went one better in Guwahati and scored his second ODI hundred.
He finished with:
114 runs from 77 balls
including 13 fours and three sixes.
His attacking innings ensured West Indies maintained a scoring rate near eight runs per over deep into the innings.
The visitors added 76 runs from the final 10 overs and reached 405/7.
Three West Indies Batters Score Hundreds
Campbell, Hope and Jangoo all reaching three figures made the innings historic in another way.
It was the first time West Indies had three centurions in the same ODI innings.
Remarkably, West Indies would still lose the match.
The game ultimately became the first ODI to feature five individual centuries, with Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill later joining the three West Indies centurions.
Kuldeep Yadav Reaches 200 ODI Wickets
On a brutal day for bowlers, Kuldeep Yadav still managed an important career milestone.
The left-arm wrist-spinner finished with:
2/65 from 10 overs
Those two wickets took him to 200 ODI wickets.
Kuldeep achieved the landmark in his 123rd ODI, becoming the fastest Indian spinner to reach 200 ODI wickets and the third-fastest spinner overall. He also became the ninth Indian bowler to reach the milestone.
Ravindra Jadeja also took two wickets, finishing with 2/75.
India Need 406 to Win
A target of 406 would ordinarily place enormous pressure on any batting side.
Before this match, India’s highest successful ODI chase had been 362/1 against Australia in Jaipur in 2013.
But Gill and Rohit immediately changed the tone of the chase.
India raced past 100 inside 12 overs and reached 200 without losing a wicket by the 22nd over.
What had looked like an almost impossible chase suddenly became realistic.
Rohit Sharma Smashes His 35th ODI Hundred
Rohit Sharma played exactly the kind of innings India needed.
He attacked the West Indies bowlers from the start, using his trademark pull shots and timing through the off side.
Rohit reached his century in 72 balls and eventually made:
101 from 75 deliveries
before Jayden Seales dismissed him LBW.
It was Rohit’s 35th ODI century.
Rohit Sharma Crosses 12,000 ODI Runs
During his century, Rohit also became only the seventh men’s batter to score 12,000 ODI runs.
He became the third Indian to reach the landmark after Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli.
The ICC also noted another remarkable record: at 39, Rohit became the oldest Indian batter to score an ODI century.
Gill and Rohit Add 255 for the First Wicket
The defining partnership of the chase was the opening stand between Gill and Rohit.
The pair added:
255 runs from 158 balls
before Rohit was dismissed.
The ICC described it as India’s highest ODI partnership on home soil.
It was also India’s second-highest opening partnership in ODI cricket, behind Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly’s 258 against Kenya in 2001.
By the time Rohit departed, India needed only 151 more runs with almost 24 overs still available.
Shubman Gill Scores Fastest ODI Double Century
The night ultimately belonged to captain Shubman Gill.
Gill reached his fifty from 38 balls before accelerating dramatically. His second fifty required only another 24 deliveries, taking him to his hundred in:
62 balls
That was Gill’s fastest ODI century and also the fastest ODI hundred by an Indian captain.
But he was nowhere near finished.
Gill reached 200 in:
117 balls
breaking Ishan Kishan’s previous record of 126 balls for the fastest double century in ODI cricket.
He eventually finished unbeaten on:
223 from 133 balls*
His innings included 26 fours and eight sixes.
Gill Breaks Record for Highest Score in an ODI Chase
Gill’s unbeaten 223 also became the highest individual score ever made in an ODI run chase.
He surpassed Glenn Maxwell’s famous unbeaten 201 against Afghanistan during the 2023 World Cup.
His 223* is also the third-highest individual score in men’s ODI history, behind Rohit Sharma’s 264 and Martin Guptill’s unbeaten 237.
It was Gill’s second ODI double century after his 208 against New Zealand in 2023.
Virat Kohli Makes Quick 29
After Rohit’s dismissal, Virat Kohli joined Gill.
Kohli scored a quick:
29 from 19 balls
before Shamar Joseph dismissed him with India at 320/2.
It was a relatively short stay compared with his unbeaten 139 in the first ODI, but India were already firmly ahead of the asking rate.
Ruturaj Gaikwad Helps Gill Finish the Chase
Ruturaj Gaikwad joined Gill for the final phase.
The ICC records Gaikwad as unbeaten on 30 from 36 balls, providing support while Gill continued attacking from the other end.
India eventually reached:
406/2 in 43.3 overs
with 39 balls remaining.
Gill stayed unbeaten on 223 and was named Player of the Match.

Why India’s 406 Chase Was So Special
A 400-plus chase remains one of cricket’s rarest achievements.

What made India’s chase even more remarkable was how comfortably it was completed.
Instead of scraping home in the final over, India reached the target in 43.3 overs, leaving 39 balls unused.
Gill and Rohit’s opening partnership ensured the required run rate never became overwhelming.
