India clinched an eight-wicket victory over the West Indies in the second ODI on Wednesday, September 30, securing an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. Opting to bowl after winning the toss, India's bowlers faced a strong West Indies batting lineup on a favourable pitch.

The Men in Blue chased down the substantial target with ease, finishing the match with over six overs remaining.
Standout performances included Shubman Gill's exceptional second double century in ODIs, earning him a perfect rating. Rohit Sharma also contributed a brilliant century, forming a significant partnership with Gill. Other notable performances with the bat saw Ruturaj Gaikwad and KL Rahul playing supporting roles.
