WI 24/0 (3)

India vs West Indies LIVE: Reddy blunders with new ball! 4, 4, 4, 4!

Shubman Gill hands the new ball to Nitish Reddy instead of Gurnoor Brar, and it's a wayward start! Greaves slams 4 through the off-side, and to make matters worse, it's also a front-foot no-ball by Reddy. Greaves cashes in on the free-hit and hammers it through mid-wicket for 4!

And make that three boundaries in a row! Full from Reddy and flicked away for 4 by Greaves! And another one on the fifth ball! Creamed through the covers again. What an over for West Indies.

India have gone with proper batting right down to No. 8 today, with Nitish Reddy and Jadeja set to bat 7 and 8. It's a big chance for Jadeja to keep his place in the side, with Axar Patel and Washington Sundar away at the Asian Games.

IND vs WI 1st ODI LIVE: West Indies' ultimate preparation

Remember, West Indies are not yet guaranteed qualification to the 2027 World Cup, as they're ranked as low as 10th in the ICC ODI team rankings. They will have to play the likes of Ireland, Netherlands, Scotland, USA and other nations in the World Cup qualifiers in February and March 2027. No better preparation for that than facing the No. 1-ranked ODI side in the world!

West Indies are aiming to avoid failing to qualify for the World Cup for the second consecutive edition.

IND vs WI 1st ODI LIVE: WilL Shubman Gill play?

Shubman Gill suffered a blow on his elbow after a sharp delivery by Mohammed Siraj during India's practice session a couple of days ahead of the first ODI. However, it seems like the Indian captain will be fit enough to play.

If he is not, we could see an enticing opening pair of Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal!

IND vs WI 1st ODI LIVE: Debuts on the cards?

With several of India's first-team players away on duty at the Asian Games 2026, this ODI series against West Indies brings a number of opportunities for some fringe players. Nitish Kumar Reddy has the chance to show his qualities as an all-rounder. The fast-bowling department is full of competition with Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna and Gurnoor Brar set to play.

We could also see a couple of debuts, with pacer Auqib Nabi and batter Naman Dhir named in the squad.

IND vs WI 1st ODI LIVE: Virat Kohli on verge of big records

Virat Kohli is on cusp of breaking two big records held by Sachin Tendulkar. Kohli is 59 runs away from becoming the second player after Sachin, and the fastest-ever, to reach 15,000 ODI runs.

He is also 110 runs away from having the record of the most ODI runs by a batter at home. That record is also held by Sachin.
