Our AI model predicts India to beat West Indies in the second one-day international at Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, with an 88% win probability. India won the opener by eight wickets in Thiruvananthapuram, and Virat Kohli has made one-day hundreds at this ground against both West Indies and Sri Lanka.
Can Virat Kohli's form carry India to a series win in Guwahati?
India's reply in Thiruvananthapuram on 27 September 2026 was never in doubt. After West Indies made 295 for 7, Kohli finished unbeaten on 139 off 88 balls and Shubman Gill, the captain, added 110 off 108. India reached 300 for 2 in 41.4 overs.
Kuldeep Yadav was the difference with the ball, taking 4 for 40 in his ten overs and earning the Player of the Match award. Prasidh Krishna chipped in with 2 for 60, and Nitish Kumar Reddy took a wicket in his five overs.
India's batters have good memories of Barsapara. Kohli made 140 here against West Indies on 21 October 2018, when Rohit Sharma added 152, and 113 against Sri Lanka in January 2023. Rohit will want a longer innings this time.
Can West Indies' batting build on Justin Greaves' hundred?
West Indies batted well enough in Thiruvananthapuram to set India a real target. Justin Greaves made 101 off 108 balls and John Campbell 62 off 60, taking them to 295 for 7 after India chose to bowl.
The problem was the ball. India lost only two wickets on the way to 300, so West Indies need far more from their attack in Guwahati.
Shai Hope captains the side. In July, West Indies beat New Zealand by two wickets at Kensington Oval (21 July 2026), two days after losing to the same opponents by one wicket at that ground. They need that kind of finish again, against a far stronger side in India.
Key Matchups: Kuldeep Yadav against West Indies' batting
Kuldeep Yadav vs Justin Greaves: Greaves made 101 in the opener, and Kuldeep took four wickets in the same innings. Whether Greaves can score freely against Kuldeep again decides how big a total West Indies can post.
Virat Kohli vs Alzarri Joseph: West Indies need early wickets from Joseph's opening spell. If Kohli gets set, his unbeaten 139 on 27 September showed what follows.
Shubman Gill vs Roston Chase: Gill made 110 in the opener, and Chase's off-spin gives West Indies a way to slow India through the middle overs.
🤝 Head-to-Head Record
India won the series opener by eight wickets at Greenfield International Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram (27 September 2026). Before that, the sides met in the Caribbean in 2023: India won by five wickets at Kensington Oval (27 July 2023), West Indies levelled with a six-wicket win at the same ground (29 July 2023), and India won the decider by 200 runs at Brian Lara Stadium, Tarouba (1 August 2023).
At this ground, India beat West Indies by eight wickets (21 October 2018), reaching 326 for 2 in 42.1 overs after West Indies made 322 for 8.
🏟️ Venue, Conditions & Toss
Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati hosted India's wins over West Indies in October 2018 and over Sri Lanka, by 67 runs, in January 2023.
- Pitch: Both of those one-day internationals produced big totals: West Indies made 322 for 8 and India 326 for 2 in 2018, then India made 373 for 7 and Sri Lanka 306 for 8 in 2023. That is too few matches for a reliable batting-first or chasing pattern, so we read the teams rather than the ground.
- Weather: The forecast for Guwahati on match day is humid with a chance of showers, so a rain interruption is possible.
- Toss: Toss call: Field first — India chose to field after winning the toss here in 2018 and again in the opener, and the second innings finishes under lights. Our toss page logs the pre-toss pick for India vs West Indies, timestamped and publicly tracked.
Match Analysis: why India's spin and batting depth decide this ODI
The contest turns on the middle overs. In the opener Kuldeep Yadav removed both Greaves and Campbell, West Indies' two highest scorers, and India can pair him with Nitish Kumar Reddy's seam to keep the scoring in check.
West Indies need early wickets. Kohli, Gill and Rohit made almost all of India's runs in the first match, so a breakthrough with the new ball is the visitors' best route into the match. Without one, India's batting depth makes any target below 300 look manageable.
A shortened match is the main risk for India. Showers would compress the game and give the weaker side more of a chance, which is one reason our number sits below the market's.
India vs West Indies Prediction: India to go 2-0 up in Guwahati
Our AI model gives India an 88% chance of winning, with fair odds of 1.14 against West Indies' 8.20. India have the stronger batting, a wrist-spinner who took four wickets in the first ODI, and good memories of this ground.
On price, India at 1.12 are shorter than our fair 1.14, so there is nothing to take on the favourite. West Indies at 8.60 sit above a fair 8.20, a 4.9% edge on a 12% outsider that suits only a small, speculative bet. For a live angle, the toss is the better market.
📊 Odds & Betting Value
| Team | Our Model | Market Implied | Best Odds | Fair Odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| India | 87.8% | 91.5% | 1.12 | 1.14 |
| West Indies | 12.2% | 8.5% | 8.60 | 8.20 |
A thin edge on the outsider. India's best price of 1.12 is shorter than our fair 1.14. West Indies at 8.60 beat a fair 8.20 by 4.9%, a longshot edge for a small bet only. The confident call is India; the toss is the other live market. Odds captured on 28 September 2026.
Our model is 3.7 points below the market on India. Here's why. West Indies made 295 for 7 in the first ODI, with Justin Greaves scoring 101, so their batting can post a competitive total. India also lost two of their three one-day internationals in England in July 2026, and a chance of showers in Guwahati could shorten the contest. Neither changes our pick.
