In the second ODI, West Indies managed to secure victory against India in a remarkable way. In the first match, India managed to secure a massive victory, leading many to think that the West Indies would not be able to secure a single match victory. But in the second ODI, West Indies secured victory and now there is a draw. Hope the last match will be a very competitive match.
In first ODI, West Indies were bowled out for just 114 runs and India too lost 5 wickets while chasing that small target. The second ODI was different in a sense that two key indian players Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were not playing. Its a good move from India to try some new combination and test new players in real scenarios. I am sure in last ODI India will go full strength to secure the series.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are senior players. India will not have these two experienced players on the squad for a long time. That is why BCCI is trying to find suitable replacements for these two important players. And so India did not keep these two players in the XI against the West Indies. India's performance in both the matches left me very disappointed. Especially their batting was very weak. We have seen bad batting from India in both the matches. India lost 5 wickets only to score 118 runs in the first match. They suffered a humiliating defeat in the second match as well. India needs to work more on their batting line-up. India's batting line-up urgently needs to improve.
This is the time when India should've showed its strength to the world. As the world cup is fast approaching countries will be watching each other teams performance and study the players. West Indies is really down in its performance and India losing against them without any fight is really bad cricket from India. As said the team requires improvement at the earliest. Losing the third ODI will surely down the performance of players. Indian players should have this in mind and plan accordingly.

West Indies vs India, in the 2nd ODI India did not play as expected.
These kinds of defeats can be a blessing in disguise so i won't read much into it.


From the team's point of view or from the current series' point of view, this loss of India does not matter. However, we do know that Betting is a big industry in India and most of the gamblers must have lost the bet on this match as they would be betting on India.

If you ask them, this Indian defeat is a nightmare for them. I would not say that the match was fixed but I could not digest this defeat of the India team. My views, but again this is a multi-million dollar industry.

Atm only Rohit, Virat, Jadeja and probably Shami are fixed for WC playing XI.
Apart from Rohit and Virat, other Indian batsmen have failed to perform consistently in SENA conditions. Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill have performed decently so far, and I would expect then to be included in the squad for the World Cup. Suryakumar Yadav is another player who have almost assured his spot in the squad. BTW, I would like the BCCI to stop providing chances to the two over-rated players (Sanju Samson and Umran Malik). These two have been provided with almost infinite number of opportunities and have failed to make use of them.
Not sure if "SENA conditions" argument is completely true. I didn't look in detail but a fair amount of existing players have alright numbers in SENA and some are averaging in mid 40s and 50s. Sanju is one of them. Sky on the other hand is not performing.

~snip~
Siraj is another one for sure. Gill might end up as a backup opener. Left right combination is desirable so Kishan can possibly fill the gap (not Dhawan).

In the second ODI match, India's batting performance was good at first but later on it was very bad. For which West Indies provided good bowling and collected excellent wickets, India lost all their wickets. Indian batsmen scored 181 runs losing all their wickets which was really unfortunate for India to lose such a strong team by so few runs. On the other hand, when West Indies came out to bat, they put up a great batting performance and achieved a huge win by 6 wickets. India's batting and bowling performance did not do well in the match which they lost to West Indies. The batsmen of West Indies have done a fantastic batting to match India and if India could have improved their bowling performance, it would have been difficult to win the match against West Indies. But unfortunately India did not perform very well in the match due to which they lost with West Indies.
Apart from India's two openers, none of the batsmen could play well in yesterday's match. India managed to muster perhaps 90 runs from the opening pair. And then they started losing wickets, and lost all the wickets to collect just 181 runs. I did not think that the Indian batsmen would bat so badly. India's batting line-up is very talented and experienced enough. Even then they could not survive at the crease against the West Indies bowlers. The Indian team conceded a humiliating defeat. West Indies reached the target with the loss of just 4 wickets.
The Indian batting line-up is considered to be the strongest batting line-up but even with the strongest batting line-up in the world, the Indian batsmen could not survive against the West Indies bowlers. The ODI World Cup is ahead and being bowled out for just 181 runs in 40 overs against a team that did not qualify for the World Cup is certainly a cause for concern for Indian cricket. India has many plans around the 2023 ODI World Cup which is going to be held in India and India is planning to win the World Cup at its home ground. If such a performance comes from the batsmen right before they plan to win the World Cup, then it is definitely a cause for concern.

I really did not think that West Indies was going to beat India, to be honest. But West Indies has achieved the win against India. They did it very well too. The batting lineup of India actually failed.

I know that @LittleBitFunny said that both openers from India performed well. But I will say that only Ishan Kishan was the one who performed well. And I don’t believe that any other player from India was actually able to perform well. West Indies did a very good job of picking up wickets at regular intervals. In the second innings west Indies also did very well to actually chase down the total. The third match is going to be the decider and India will certainly have to perform better.

And I agree with @Litzki1990 that this is certainly a cause for concern for India

West Indies vs India
Without a question the second ODI between West Indies and India in Bridgetown was an exciting match. West Indies demonstrated their skill despite India poor batting and bowling performance which resulted in them being all out after scoring only 181 runs in close to 40 overs. India goal seemed meagre and a greater score might have increased the match interest. Congratulations to the West indies for a job well done especially Shai Hope (63/80) and Keacy Carty (48/65) for their superb batting. Shardul Thakur outstanding performance with three wickets in the bowling department is also deserving of praise.

West Indies VS India second ODI match

Many congratulations to West Indies as West Indies pulled off a brilliant six-wicket win over India in ODI cricket after four years. The performance of West Indies against India in the first match was similar to the performance of West Indies in the second match which led West Indies to an easy six-wicket victory over India. 
The win in the second ODI match for West Indies was very gratifying because when a team wins against a team after four years, the feeling of victory is really different.

In the first ODI match, India won by 5 wickets, in the second ODI match, West Indies secured the win by 6 wickets, that is, the third ODI match is the series deciding match for West Indies and England.

India performance at home ground is always exceptional. So whatever team combination will be they will perform well in coming ODI worldcup. West Indies finally able to win an ODI, thanks to India decision of not going with Rohit and Virat. Sanju and Umran are given too much chances but we are yet to see some extra ordinary performance from these two. May be they start performing if given too much chances like Virat Kohli.

I noticed that yesterday's team formation lacked some older players. Because especially on the performance of experienced and older players in past matches and also using intelligence and strategy, Indian team has performed very well in ODI matches. But Indian team loving fans could never accept that India team made such a small run basket with West Indies. I can see Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli's place not being filled with other players due to which the Indian team is in this difficult situation.

Tbh it turned out to be a warm up match that's why so many changes in the batting order. At times it felt like Rohit and Kohli didn't want to bat at all.
Hope they get some resistance or some shock in the next matches because this tour was supposed to be a preparation for WC.
Indian team management has kept Rohit and Kohli on the bench today. They are indeed taking the series very lightly now. But Indian team has performed badly today for their decision. They couldn't even add 100 more runs after losing their first wicket today. They got all out in just 181 runs from 90/1. There will be nothing to surprise if they get a shock today by losing the match.

Its a golden opportunity for West Indies to win an ODI against a strong team. This win will indicate that there is still some strength in West Indies team. West indies cricket is at its worst these days, they were knocked out of ODI world cup for the very first time in the history.

Indian batting was fine until they lost the opener Subman Gill and after that whole batting collapsed like a wall of sand. Sanju Samson and Axer Patel were given chance today but they were not able to play a big innings today. West indies are going fine with chase so far and they must not panic to chase this small target.

Despite all the odds, the West Indies won the match, an unexpected result for most including me. The Indian team were 90-1 and was looking comfortable to win this match before the collapse happen and the rest of the team could only make 91 more runs. Gudakesh Motie and Romario Shepherd took three wickets each and the West Indies team look as a good bowling unit after a long time.

I posted earlier that if you have bet on WI before the start of the match, the odds were above 4. Is anyone lucky who took the risk and bet on the West Indies?

Atm only Rohit, Virat, Jadeja and probably Shami are fixed for WC playing XI.

I think Siraj is also fixed for the ODI squad. Previously Subhaman Gill stunned the Indian fans with his marvellous performance. But now his position as an opener is also at risk. Fans are demanding for Shikhar Dhawan in place of him as an opener. Also in this WI series, they wanted Ishan to audition for number 4 position, but Ishan played exceptionally as an opening batsman. This maybe also a troublesome news for Subhman, as Rohit and Ishan can also open the matches.

Really disappointed by yesterday’s match performance by Indian team. They got defeated by the poor West Indies. Does this only mean Rohit and Virat can only lead the team to victory? These poor performances of the players was seen from the last two matches. Also Hardik didn’t do well in captaining, as he failed to take wickets with the bowlers as Rohit did in the last match.

These kinds of defeats can be a blessing in disguise so i won't read much into it.

But my major worry is team balance. It looks way too messy, even if they win the match. Don't know how many matches India playing before the ODI WC and they are searching for a lot of answers.

The opportunity is well utilised by the West Indies Cricket team. It isn't an easy thing to win a match when they're at their worst. Some have mentioned India hadn't performed to the expectation. If so, in the first ODI West Indies team haven't performed to the expectation. Well bowled and the credit goes to Motie and Shepherd. Shai Hope played well and made it a winning match with the support from Keacy Carty who are the top scorers for West Indies. A much needed win for West Indies and this win will make them more energetic to win the last ODI.

West indies cricket is at its worst these days, they were knocked out of ODI world cup for the very first time in the history.
Yeh West Indies are going with some really bad time, they were eliminated from some important big competition recently, I heard really about thier legacy they were like monster and undefeatable but now they unable to beat small teams.
Now they have golden opportunity to get back into form because shockingly India were not even able to score a 200 in ODI format which is really disappointed and embarrassing. But any win/lose are part of game any can defeat any big team on current day best performance.
Now WestIndies lose his 4th wickets but they already scored important runs, now the current run rate is quite High compared to required run rate. Hope they will chased down yeh required small target easily as still they have strong power hitter pooran on a crease....
Wow, I really didn't imagine West Indies can back this ODI series. And to be honest, I am in disbelief that West Indies beat India like this this time. And it is also certain that most gamblers have lost in today's betting. Because the main event of this series has taken a complete opposite turn through this match.
Anyway, talking about the performance of the match, West Indies gave an amazing performance today. Specially their all of bowlers did a great role to win this match and The batsmen have also improved a bit from their earlier mistakes. However, West Indies' opening batsmen's weakness still remains, if they can't fix it completely, they will have to wear it in some uncertainty in the upcoming match.
But I did not expect such a performance from India, their two opening batsmen were able to take a partnership but the rest could not do anything in this match. The result of the match went against them today
However, even though I didn't take a bet in today's match, this match really confused me to catch the third ODI match. But I still believe that India can win the ODI series.
