IND vs WI Match Prediction & Analysis
Team India is set to host West Indies in the 1st of the three match ODI series to be played on September 27, Sunday. The game will be played at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram.
This is crucial preparation for both the teams ahead of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2027 to be played in Africa. This will be a big series for Team India who have not performed to the best of their abilities in ODI cricket in 2026. They lost 2-1 to New Zealand at the start of the year, beat Afghanistan 3-0 but lost 2-1 to England.
West Indies have suffered a similar fate in ODIs in 2026. The Caribbean side has played a total of 6 ODIs in 2026 in which they have won only two matches and lost 4 times. This is their last bit of ODI cricket in 2026 for the foreseeable future.
There have been a total of 142 head-to-head ODI matches played between the two teams and Team India have won 72 matches while West Indies have won 64 matches. India’s dominance is clearly visible with the Men in Blue winning 9 out of the last 10 matches vs West Indies.

TEAMS PREVIEW
India Preview
Team India start their home ODI series against West Indies in Thiruvananthapuram in preparation for the upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup 2027 in Africa. Shubman Gill leads the team, and the batting looks solid with Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli back in the squad.
The two veteran players know how to handle big matches and will look to set a good platform at the top for the Men in Blue. ODI cricket is the only format the duo currently plays hence fans are excited to see them grace the blue again. The duo last played in the ODI series vs England where Kohli scored 144 runs while Rohit scored 178 after playing a wonderful knock of 138 runs in the 3rd ODI.
Gill himself is in good form and will bat with confidence. He was Team India top run scorer in the ODI series vs England with 188 runs. In the middle order, KL Rahul brings stability with the gloves, while Dhruv Jurel is another wicketkeeping option.
Young players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Ruturaj Gaikwad will be eager to make an impression while Naman Dhir has been given a maiden call-up to the Indian team.
Ravindra Jadeja remains a key all-rounder who can contribute with both bat and ball. Jadeja last played an ODI early in the year in January vs New Zealand, he will need to hit the ground running instantly. Auqib Nabi has also been included in the team for a potential debut and will provide pace bowling all-round option alongside Nitish Kumar Reddy.
With the ball, Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna lead the pace attack in the absence of Jasprit Bumrah who has travelled to Japan to play in the Asian Games with the Indian T20I team.
Meanwhile after his impressive performance vs Afghanistan and England, Gurnoor Brar has kept his place in the team. Kuldeep Yadav’s spin will be important on Indian pitches, especially in the middle overs to partner Ravindra Jadeja.
India Predicted Playing XI:
Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill (C), Virat Kohli, KL Rahul (WK), Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Gurnoor Brar, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav, Prasidh Krishna.
India Actual Playing XI:
Kuldeep Yadav, Shubman Gill, Gurnoor Brar, Naman Dhir, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Lokesh Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Prasidh Krishna, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli
West Indies Preview
West Indies come to India for the three-match ODI series with a mix of experienced players and young talent. The Caribbean side would be eager to improve their torrid ODI records in 2026 so far. They have won twice in 6 ODIs, suffering a 3-2 loss to New Zealand in July, 2026.
The side will be led by experienced campaigner Shai Hope who will also play an important role behind the stumps. Keacy Carty and John Campbell can give them a solid start at the top, while Sherfane Rutherford is known for his powerful hitting. He is the only batter in the West Indies squad with experience of playing in Indian conditions this year having played in the IPL 2026 for Mumbai Indians.
Youngster Jewel Andrew is going to be a player to keep an eye on. He is touted as the next big thing to grace the maroon for West Indies. Amir Jangoo provides more batting options alongside all-rounders like Roston Chase, Justin Greaves and Keemo Paul who all can bring power-hitting and can contribute with the ball as well.
The pace bowling department for West Indies is probably the best it has been in the last few years featuring Alzarri Joseph, Shamar Joseph and Jayden Seales. They can generate good pace and will look to trouble the Indian batters early.
Matthew Forde gives them another pace option, while Gudakesh Motie and young spinner Vitel Lawes, who bagged 8 wickets in his debut series vs New Zealand, handle the spin duties. West Indies know it will be a tough series against a strong home team, but they have enough quality to compete.
West Indies Predicted Playing XI:
Shai Hope (C, WK), Amir Jangoo, John Campbell, Keacy Carty, Jewel Andrew, Sherfane Rutherford, Matthew Forde, Gudakesh Motie, Vitel Lawes, Shamar Joseph, Alzarri Joseph.
West Indies Actual Playing XI:
Jayden Seales, John Campbell, Keacy Carty, Justin Greaves, Roston Chase, Shai Hope, Jewel Andrew, Amir Jangoo, Matthew Forde, Alzarri Joseph, Gudakesh Motie
PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The weather in Thiruvananthapuram on matchday is likely to be partly cloudy skies with a moderate chance of rain. Temperature is expected around 28–31°C during the afternoon, dropping slightly into the evening. There 20-40% probability of precipitation, being close to the sea, expect a potential threat of rain, although it won't be any length delay if any.
IND vs WI Pitch Report
The pitch is generally slow and offers assistance to bowlers. Pacers can extract some bounce and seam movement with the new ball, while the surface tends to grip and slow down as the match progresses, favouring spinners in the middle and later overs. Batters need patience and good shot selection due to the larger boundaries. The average first innings score at the venue is 247, from 2 ODIs.
Toss: To Bowl
The captain who win the toss should opt to bowl first. There is likely to be some clouds over the sky which should aid the pace bowlers with extra movement. And if it does not rain, there is potential dew in the 2nd innings that should help the chasing team.
IND vs WI
Winning Prediction
India are clear favourites at home. With Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli back in the fold, Shubman Gill in form, and a strong spin attack led by Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav, they hold a significant edge. West Indies have struggled in ODIs this year winning only 2 games and will find it difficult to match India’s depth and experience on home pitches. India should start the series with a win.
