Shubman Gill scored the fastest double century in ODI history with 223 not out, leading India to a record chase of 406 runs against the West Indies in the second ODI. The victory secured an 8-wicket win and a 2-0 series triumph.
Gill's innings, the highest by an Indian in an ODI chase, included 26 fours and eight sixes. He reached his milestone in 133 balls, breaking the previous record. Rohit Sharma contributed a century with 101 runs, supporting Gill's explosive performance.
India's batting coach Sitanshu Kotak criticized the pitch conditions, calling the game a "run-fest." The high-scoring match saw the West Indies post 405 for seven, but India's chase was relentless. The win marks a historic moment in ODI cricket.
This victory comes as Virat Kohli confirms the 2027 World Cup will be his final ODI for India. The series win highlights India's dominance in limited-overs cricket, with Gill's record-breaking innings setting a new benchmark.
