Summary
India are all set to kick off a three-match series against the West Indies, with the 1st ODI taking place on Sunday, September 27, at the Greenfield International Stadium, Thiruvananthapuram.
Veteran batters Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will return to the team after a long gap and will be looking to leave a mark from the 1st match. Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is also returning to the side after not playing in the last series in the format.
The Indian side, led by Shubman Gill, will be going into the contest without many of their regular players in the squad, as many are representing India at the Asian Games. This will allow them to try new faces.
The Men in Blue last played an ODI series against England, where they were defeated 2–1 in the series. Virat Kohli scored 144 runs, while Rohit Sharma scored 175 runs in the series. Captain Shubman was the top scorer for India in the series with 188 runs in three outings.
West Indies have also been through a turbulent phase in the format in the recent past. The side, led by Shai Hope, will look to turn their fortunes as they have not won a single ODI series since 2025, losing twice to New Zealand, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. They last won against Pakistan.
Both teams will also look to start their preparations for the 2027 ODI World Cup, taking place in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia.
