India beat West Indies by eight wickets in the second ODI at Guwahati, completing a 406-run chase in 43.3 overs and taking a 2-0 series lead. West Indies had made 405/7, their highest ODI total, before India reached 406/2 with Shubman Gill scoring 223* and Ruturaj Gaikwad making 31*.
The match becomes one of the highest-scoring games in men’s ODI history, with 811 runs scored across both innings. Sources cite it as the third-highest match aggregate in men’s ODIs, ahead of other record totals such as an England vs West Indies match in 2019 and an Australia vs New Zealand game in 2023. Individual milestones are also highlighted: Gill’s 223* is listed among the highest ODI scores, and India’s 400-plus successful chase is described as only the second of its kind in men’s ODIs.
Different outlets focus on different record angles—one emphasizes the match aggregate, another the chase being India’s highest successful ODI run chase, and another summarizes the key outcome and the 400+ chase rarity—while all agree on the core result, innings totals, and Gill’s decisive double century.
